以赛亚书 51:8 RCUVSS

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 51:4-8

4-8 The gospel of Christ shall be preached and published. How shall we escape if we neglect it? There is no salvation without righteousness. The soul shall, as to this world, vanish like smoke, and the body be thrown by like a worn-out garment. But those whose happiness is in Christ's righteousness and salvation, will have the comfort of it when time and days shall be no more. Clouds darken the sun, but do not stop its course. The believer will enjoy his portion, while revilers of Christ are in... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Isaiah 51:1-11

The Certainty of Deliverance v. 1. Hearken unto Me, ye that follow after righteousness, earnestly seeking to obtain it, ye that seek the Lord, in true repentance over their sins, as yet not daring to show a happy faith; look unto the rock whence ye are hewn, namely, Abraham, before the promise of the Lord regarding the birth of Isaac was fulfilled, and to the hole of the pit whence ye are digged, this cistern of the rock being Sarah, as the context shows. The nation of Israel was called... read more

Lange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures: Critical, Doctrinal and Homiletical - Isaiah 51:1-23

III.—THE THIRD DISCOURSEThe Final Redemption of Israel. A Dialogue between the Servant of Jehovah who appears as one veiled, Israel, Jehovah Himself and the ProphetIsaiah 51:0This chapter speaks of high and mighty things. We hear four persons speak one after the other. Each of the speakers from his view-point announces what he has to produce in reference to the chief subject. The Servant of God, appearing significantly veiled, presents to Israel the condition of its redemption (Isaiah 51:1-8).... read more

Frederick Brotherton Meyer

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Isaiah 51:1-11

“Awake, O Arm of Jehovah!” Isaiah 51:1-11 This chapter is extremely dramatic. We are conscious that we are nearing a revelation of unparalleled sublimity. As we hear the thrice Hearken in Isaiah 1:1-8 , and the thrice Awake , Isaiah 51:9 , which follows, we realize that we are traversing the entrance portico of a noble temple. When God says, Hearken , it is for us to ask Him to fulfill- Awake ! Recall the loneliness of Abraham. “He was but one!” Terah died, Lot dropped away, Hagar was... read more

G. Campbell Morgan

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 51:1-23

Three messages to the faithful immediately follow. The first is a call to courage (verses Isa 51:1-8 ), in which they are charged to look back to Abraham, to look on to the nearness of God's activity, to look around and be without fear in the presence of opposition. The next is a cry of courage (verses Isa 51:9-11 ), in which they first look up to the arm of the Lord, and then look back and remember how He has delivered, and, finally, look on in the assurance that He will deliver. The last... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 51:1-23

Chapter 51 Exhortations To The People To Respond To God. We now have here three remarkable calls to faithful Israel, ‘listen’ (Isaiah 51:1) - ‘attend’ (Isaiah 51:4) - ‘listen’ (Isaiah 51:7). They have heard the voice of the Servant (Isaiah 50:10), now it is open to them to respond. And how are they to appreciate the truth about the Servant? They are to look back to Abraham, and to recognise how when he was but one God blessed him and made him many, and then they are to recognise in this new... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 51:7-8

God’s Call To His People Not To Fear Men Or Their Reproaches Because They Will Fade Away While God’s People Will Go On For Ever (Isaiah 51:7-8 ). Again, for the third time, He stresses the importance of ‘listening’. They are to observe His instruction from their hearts. For those who have His instruction in their hearts need fear nothing, because they are not living in the light of this world, but of eternity. The world will pass away, but His word and His salvation will never pass away.... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 51:1-8

Isaiah 51:1-Ruth : . A Heartening Consolation.— Yahweh, in words that echo Isaiah 50:4-1 Samuel :, bids His people, who seek the victory which ever eludes them, consider their origin. Abraham was but one; yet He made him a great people: how much more from a people, though their numbers be decreased, can He make a mighty nation. He will comfort Zion— the perfects of Isaiah 51:3 are “ perfects of certainty”— her ruins shall be rebuilt and her waste places made fruitful as Eden. Instruction in... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 51:8

The moth shall eat them up; your reproachers shall be easily destroyed, and so God will revenge your cause upon them, and deliver you from their reproaches. Like wool; like a woollen garment, which is sooner corrupted by moths or such creatures than linen. read more

DISCOURSE: 958A DISSUASIVE FROM THE FEAR OF MANIsaiah 51:7-8. Hearken unto me, ye that know righteousness, the people in whose heart is my law: Fear ye not the reproach of men, neither be ye afraid of their revilings: for the moth shall eat them up like a garment, and the worm shall eat them like wool; but my righteousness shall be for ever, and my salvation from generation to generation.OUR heavenly Father, anxious that we should attend to his word in every thing, uses various means to impress... read more
