以賽亞書 59:17 CUNPTS

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Isaiah 59:1-21

MEETING OF THE AGES We are drawing to the end of the present, and the opening of the Millennial age. The prophet’s eye rests on the time when Israel is back in her land, the majority still unconverted to Christ and worshiping in a restored temple. There is a faithful remnant waiting for Him, though enduring the persecution of the false christ. This persecution may often be felt at the hands of their own brethren after the flesh. These facts must be assumed in the interpretation of these... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Isaiah 59:16-18

I made but a short observation on the long passage before this, in order that I might enter upon the soul-relieving truth in the view of the Lord Jesus, which here succeeds the melancholy subject. He saw that there was no man. Whom is this spoken of, but of Jesus? Who was it saw the poverty and ruin of our nature, and determined to interpose for our salvation, but the Lord Jesus? Who, but he, could be both our Saviour and Intercessor? Precious Lord Jesus! it was, indeed, thine own arm that... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 59:16-21

16-21 This passage is connected with the following chapters. It is generally thought to describe the coming of the Messiah, as the Avenger and Deliverer of his church. There was none to intercede with God to turn away his wrath; none to interpose for the support of justice and truth. Yet He engaged his own strength and righteousness for his people. God will make his justice upon the enemies of his church and people plainly appear. When the enemy threatens to bear down all without control, then... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Isaiah 59:16-21

The Lord Making Ready for Judgment and Redemption v. 15. b. And the Lord saw it, namely, the desperate condition of His people, and It displeased Him that there was no judgment, that no one interfered to punish and to deliver. v. 16. And He saw that there was no man, no hero, no champion to work deliverance, and wondered that there was no intercessor, none to interpose in behalf of the oppressed people; therefore His arm brought salvation unto him, to Israel, and His righteousness, it... read more

Frederick Brotherton Meyer

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Isaiah 59:15-21

the Divine Arm Brings Redemption Isaiah 59:15-21 Israel’s Savior . The Almighty Lover of souls is described as looking round to see if help were forthcoming from any other quarter; and there being none, He girds Himself for the conflict with the enemies of His people. He dons breastplate and helmet, clothing and cloak, and hastens to deliver, Isaiah 59:17 . This is surely a portrait of our Lord Jesus, who stands up to plead the cause and to achieve the redemption of the penitent and... read more

G. Campbell Morgan

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 59:1-21

Continuing, the prophet makes confession of moral failure. This he does first by declaring the reason for national suffering. It is not to be found in Jehovah's inability, nor in His unwillingness. The iniquities of the people have separated them and their God. In a terrible passage, the prophet confesses the appalling corruption, and immediately describes the suffering which followed, the groping in the dark, even though it is noonday; the longing for a salvation which does not come, all of... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 59:15-21

THE COMING OF THE DELIVERER AND THE ESTABLISHMENT OF ZION ( Isaiah 59:15 to Isaiah 62:12 ). Isaiah wanted them to know that God sees their desperate condition and determines to act. He looks for a man, someone to stand in the gap, but there is none. So He Himself acts. He will step in on behalf of His people. He will bring them a Deliverer, a Redeemer, One Who is clothed in righteousness and salvation, and also One Who is clothed in vengeance and zealousness for God. He is concerned with... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 59:15-21

Isaiah 59:15 b – Isaiah 59:21 . Yahweh Himself Becomes the Champion of the Right.— Yahweh is indignant that Right is absent. He sees there is none to interpose ( mg.) for her, so His own power brings the deliverance He desires, His victorious might sustaining Him in His strife. He arrays Himself as a warrior, Victory His cuirass, Deliverance His helmet, Vengeance His garments, and the Wrath of Indignation His cloak. Thus equipped, He proceeds to render to every deed its recompence, fury to... read more
