Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Isaiah 15:6-9

Everything contained in these verses is like the Prophet's roll, written within, and without, and full of nothing else but lamentation, and mourning, and woe. Alas! what an awful thing must it be, to be full of this world's sorrow, and without the knowledge of, and an interest in Christ to soften it! read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Isaiah 15:9

REFLECTIONS READER, in the history of Moab, behold the history of every man by nature, exposed to the just judgment of God, the curse of his broken law, and all the terrors, which will one day fall upon the wicked! their hatred to God and his Christ, is manifested by their hatred to his people; neither can the malignity he taken out or purged by whole burnt sacrifices. From generation to generation, their anger burns with implacable hatred, neither can anything soften it. And as nothing tends... read more

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Isaiah 15:9

Dibon. Septuagint, &c., read, "Dimon," which signifies, "blood." I will give it a better claim to this appellation. --- Lion. Nabuchodonosor. (Calmet) --- Septuagint, "I will bring the Arabs up on Dimon, and will take away the seed of Moab, and Ariel, and the remnant of Adama." (Haydock) read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Isaiah 15:1-18

Isa_15:1 Isa_23:18 It is clear that, when God acts in judgment, He begins at the innermost circle. It was so in the days of Jerusalem, as we see in Eze_9:6 and the same principle holds good in New Testament times, as stated in 1Pe_4:17 . In Isaiah we have seen the predictions of judgment first uttered against Israel, though with promises of restoration and glory in their Messiah. After this follows the judgment of the nations surrounding Israel. We have seen Babylon head the list, to which... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Isaiah 15:1-9

Prophecy against Moab. v. 1. The burden, the sentence of judgment, of Moab, the nation descended from the elder daughter of Lot, occupying the country southeast of the Dead Sea. Because in the night Ar of Moab is laid waste and brought to silence, made desolate and annihilated; because in the night Kir of Moab is laid waste and brought to silence! it is a call of astonishment at, and horror over, the sudden and fearful destruction of these two leading cities of the nation. v. 2. He,... read more

Lange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures: Critical, Doctrinal and Homiletical - Isaiah 15:1-9

2. AGAINST MOABIsaiah 15, 16Concerning the relation of Moab to the Israelites, comp. the remarks prefixed to Jeremiah 48:0. The present prophecy is a double address. For it consists of an older discourse (Isaiah 15:1 to Isaiah 16:12), which, as appears, was not published immediate ly on its origination, but was given publicity by Isaiah only when he could announce definitely that the beginning of its fulfilment would occur after three years. Some have therefore conceived the notion that the... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 15:1-9

In this section we have three prophecies: concerning Assyria ( Isa 14:24-27 ), concerning Philistia ( Isa 14:28-32 ), and the commencement of one concerning Moab (15). This fragment concerning Assyria consists of the reaffirmation of Jehovah's intention to break its power. The oath of Jehovah is declared, and its irrevocable certainty affirmed. The fragment concerning Philistia is of the nature of a warning spoken to her. Although she oppresses the people of God, she is herself in peril. She... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 15:8-9

‘For the cry is gone round the borders of Moab, Its howling to Eglaim, and its howling to Beer-elim. For the waters of Dimon are full of blood, For I will bring yet more on Dimon, A lion on him who escapes of Moab, And on the remnant of the land.’ The whole of the border area with its different cities is filled with weeping people as they stream to the border for what they hope will be safety. Dimon may be a local variant of Dibon (Dibon is read by the Isaiah scroll Qa at Qumran). There is to... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 15:1-9

Isaiah 15:1-1 Samuel : . The Overthrow of Moab.— A sudden catastrophe has overwhelmed Ar ( Numbers 21:15 *) and Kir in one night. The daughter (read bath for Bayith; cf. Jeremiah 48:18) of Dibon ( Numbers 21:30 *) has gone up to the high places to lament; everywhere are signs of mourning. The cry of distress is heard from Heshbon ( Numbers 21:25 *) and Elealeh ( Numbers 32:37 *) in Jahaz ( Numbers 21:23 *). The fugitives ( mg.) flee to Zoar ( Genesis 19:22 *) and the third Eglath. They... read more

Matthew Poole

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 15:9

Dimon: this seems to be the same place with Dibon, mentioned Isaiah 15:2, here called Dimon for the great bloodshed in it, as it here follows; such changes of a letter being not unusual in proper names, as in Merodach for Berodach, Isaiah 39:1. More; either, 1. More than upon other parts of the country, that being one of their high places, Isaiah 15:2; or rather, 2. More than hath been already mentioned. Lions upon him that escapeth of Moab; God shall send lions to find out those that escape... read more
