Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 54:14

In righteousness; either, 1. As the means of thy establishment. This kingdom shall not be set up and settled by fraud or tyranny, as other kingdoms frequently are, but by justice. Or rather, 2. As the effect of the establishment. Thine affairs shall be managed with righteousness, which is the glory and felicity of any society, and not with oppression, as it follows. Justice shall be freely and impartially executed. Thou shalt be far from oppression; either by thine own governors, or by foreign... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Isaiah 54:1-17

Chapter 54Israel is to be restored as Jehovah's wife, chapter 54.Sing, O barren, thou that didst not bear; break forth into singing, and cry aloud, thou that didst not travail with child: for more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife, saith the LORD. Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes ( Isaiah 54:1-2 );God speaks of how He's just going to enlarge... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 54:1-17

Isaiah 54:1 . Sing, oh barren, thou that didst not bear. This prophecy is a song of praise, exulting in the assurance that the gentile world should be converted to Christ. The prophet saw it as already done: he had no doubt on the subject. Christianity has contended single-handed with idolatry, on the great theatres of Greece and Rome, and put her to shame. It shall be the same, whenever truth shall fairly gain the ear of the yet rebellious gentiles. The Jews, it is true, apply all these... read more

Isaiah 54:11-17O thou afflictedThe city of GodThe reference is still to Jerusalem.In the former paragraph, she was addressed as a barren wife; here as destined to arise from her encumbering ruins, and become the joy of the whole earth. Of course, the primary reference is to that actual rebuilding which took place under the direction of Nehemiah. But there is a further and more spiritual meaning. These words must refer to that city of God which is ever arising amid the ruins of all other... read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 54:1-17

Sec. 3. MESSIAH AND THE GOSPEL, Isaiah 52:11 to Isaiah 55:13. Thus far in this chapter is treated the case of an exalted Church passing, step by step, through suffering and deliverances into the purity of the typical holy Zion; from this point the view is turned again to the “Servant” of Jehovah, through whom the prophet has seen the Church to be redeemed. The portrait of a suffering servant is here filled out in detail, as a side-piece (Delitzsch) to the liberation and deliverance of... read more
