イザヤ書 50:5-10 JC

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 50:6

I gave my back to the smiters - I submitted willingly to be scourged, or whipped. This is one of the parts of this chapter which can be applied to no other one but the Messiah. There is not the slightest evidence, whatever may be supposed to have been the probability, that Isaiah was subjected to any such trial as this, or that he was scourged in a public manner. Yet it was literally fulfilled in the Lord Jesus Christ (Matthew 27:26; compare Luke 18:33).And my cheeks to them that plucked off... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 50:7

For the Lord God will help me - That is, he will sustain me amidst all these expressions of contempt and scorn.Shall I not be confounded - Hebrew, ‘I shall not be ashamed;’ that is, I will bear all this with the assurance of his favor and protection, and I will not blush to be thus treated in a cause so glorious, and which must finally triumph and prevail.Therefore have I set my face like a flint - To harden the face, the brow, the forehead, might be used either in a bad or a good sense - in... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 50:8

He is near that justifieth me - That is, God, who will vindicate my character, and who approves what I do, does not leave nor forsake me, and I can with confidence commit myself and my cause to him (see the note at Isaiah 49:4). The word justify here is not used in the sense in which it is often in the Scriptures, to denote the act by which a sinner is justified before God, but in the proper, judicial sense, that he would declare him to be righteous; he would vindicate his character, and show... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 50:9

The Lord God will help me - (See Isaiah 50:7). In the Hebrew this is, ‘The Lord Jehovah,’ as it is in Isaiah 50:7 also, and these are among the places where our translators have improperly rendered the word יהוה yehovâh (Jehovah) by the word ‘God.’Who is he that shall condemn me? - If Yahweh is my advocate and friend, my cause must be right. Similar language is used by the apostle Paul: ‘If God be for us, who can be against us?’ Romans 8:31; and in Psalms 118:6 :Jehovah is on my side; I will... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 50:10

Who is among you that feareth the Lord? - This whole prophecy is concluded with an address made in this verse to the friends of God, and in the next to his enemies. It is the language of the Messiah, calling on the one class to put their trust in Yahweh, and threatening the other with displeasure and wrath. The exhortation in this verse is made in view of what is said in the previous verses. It is the entreaty of the Redeemer to all who love and fear God, and who may be placed in circumstances... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 50:5-6

Isaiah 50:5-6. The Lord hath opened mine ear Hath given me a power and will to hear and receive his commands. And I was not rebellious I readily did and suffered what he required of me. Neither turned away back From hearing or obeying his will, how difficult or dangerous soever the work might be to which he called me. He seems to allude to some of the former prophets, who had shrunk back, and for a time refused such work as God called them to, as Moses, Exodus 3:11; Jonah, chap. 1:3, and... read more

Isaiah 50:7-9. For, or rather, but, the Lord God will help me Though as man I am weak, yet God will strengthen me to go through my great and hard work. Therefore shall I not be confounded Therefore I assure myself of success in my undertaking, and of victory over all my enemies. I have set my face like a flint I have hardened myself with resolution and courage against all opposition. See the like phrase, Ezekiel 3:8-9. which Bishop Lowth translates as follows: “Behold I have made thy... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 50:10-11

Isaiah 50:10-11. Who is among you that feareth the Lord? He now turns his speech from the unbelieving and rebellious Jews, to those of them who were, or should be, pious. That obeyeth the voice of his servant Of the same person of whom he has hitherto spoken, of Christ, who is called God’s servant by way of eminence, and to intimate that, though he was God, yet he would take upon himself the form of a servant. It is hereby signified, that the grace of God, and the encouragement and... read more

Donald C. Fleming

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Isaiah 50:4-11

The servant’s patient endurance (50:4-11)In this, the third Servant Song, the words again may have an application to the experiences of Israel among the nations. In particular they reflect the experiences of the few faithful Jews who tried to teach, warn and comfort their ungodly fellow exiles in Babylon. The song becomes even more meaningful when applied to the experiences of the Messiah himself.The servant is taught by God day by day, so that he can give teaching and encouragement to those... read more
