James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Isaiah 31:1-9

JUDAH AND EGYPT These chapters make a unit since, with the exception of the opening part of chapter 28, they chiefly deal with Judah’s futile alliance with Egypt. Isaiah 28:0 Israel, or the kingdom of the ten tribes, is addressed under the name of her leading tribe “Ephraim” (Isaiah 28:1 ). Her great sin is strong drink. “The head of the fat valley” is Samaria the capital, which is soon to be overthrown by the Assyrians (Isaiah 28:2-4 ). Observe, however, the usual forecast of the end of the... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Isaiah 31:1-9

Prophetic Warnings Isaiah 31-33 Remember that. If on hearing that you choose to trust to Egypt, so be it; only, walk in the light, understand your position, make your choice deliberately, and abide by it. All that the Bible, a revelation from God, can do is to make distinctions, announce issues, address appeals to reason and to conscience, and there even an inspired volume ends its labour. The people imagined that Egypt was a sanctuary: the prophet said, It is so, in a very temporary and... read more

Robert Hawker

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Isaiah 31:6-9

It is blessed to observe how the Lord's precepts are frequently accompanied with promises; and his commands to his people to return to him, with giving the ability to return. See a beautiful illustration, Jeremiah 31:18-20 . And the provision for returning is blessedly set forth by another prophet, in reference to the blood of Christ, Zechariah 9:11-12 . And when these divine properties are wrought in the heart by grace, and the Lord hath prepared his people for his mercy; then the mercies... read more

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 31:6-9

6-9 They have been backsliding children, yet children; let them return, and their backslidings shall be healed, though they have sunk deep into misery, and cannot easily recover. Many make an idol of their silver and gold, and by the love of that are drawn from God; but those who turn to God, will be ready to part with it. Then, when they have cast away their idols, shall the Assyrian fall by the sword of an angel, who strikes more strongly than a mighty man, yet more secretly than a mean man.... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Isaiah 31:5-9

Jehovah Protects those who Fear Him v. 5. As birds flying, fluttering over a brood of fledglings, so will the Lord of hosts defend Jerusalem, hovering over its inhabitants with anxious care; defending also He will deliver it, and passing over He will preserve it, as the destroying angel passed over the blood-marked houses of the children of Israel in Goshen at the time of the first Passover, Exodus 12:13; Exodus 23-27. v. 6. Turn ye unto Him, the God of the covenant, the God of love, from... read more

Frederick Brotherton Meyer

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Isaiah 31:1-9

a Nobler Future for the Nation Isaiah 31:1-9 ; Isaiah 32:1-8 Isaiah continues to denounce the contemplated alliance with Egypt. His compatriots put their trust in horses and chariots, and refused the help of their fathers’ God. Yet was He not so wise as the Egyptians, and equally as strong! And were they not running a fearful risk in rejecting One who would not recall His words of threatened punishment to those who refused His help? At best, the Egyptians were men, and not God, and their... read more

G. Campbell Morgan

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 31:1-9

The prophet again denounces the alliance with Egypt. He declares that the sin of it is a false trust consequent on the chosen people tuning their back on Jehovah. The folly of it is manifest in the fact that all their plotting cannot circumvent Jehovah, who is wise, and will certainly proceed against the workers of iniquity. He then describes the attitude of Jehovah, first as One in whose power the people are as surely as is the prey in the grasp of the lion, and yet He is determined to... read more
