Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 65:24

Before they call, I will answer - That is, their desires shall be anticipated, God will see their needs, and he will impart to them the blessings which they need. He will not wait to be applied to for the blessing. How many such blessings do all his people receive at the hand of God! How ready is he to anticipate our needs! How watchful is he of our necessities; and how rich his benevolence in providing for us! Even the most faithful and prayerful of his people receive numerous favors and... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 65:25

The wolf and the lamb shall feed together - (See the notes at Isaiah 11:0.)And the lion shall eat straw - Shall eat hay or provender like the ox. The food of the lion now is flesh. Changes shall take place as great as if his nature were changed, and he should graze with the herds of the field. See a full illustration of this sentiment from the classic writors in the notes at Isaiah 11:6.Like the bullock - Or the ox - the cattle that herd together - for so the Hebrew word (בקר bâqâr) means.... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 65:20

Isaiah 65:20. There shall be no more thence an infant of days, &c. There shall he no untimely or premature deaths, either of infants and children, who do not grow up to man’s estate, or of old men, who do not live out the full term of life. For the child shall die, &c. This should rather be translated, For he that dies a hundred years old shall die a child: and the sinner that dies a hundred years old shall be (that is, shall be deemed) accursed, or cut off by the justice of... read more

Isaiah 65:21-23. They shall build houses and inhabit them The prophet here describes another privilege of the church in these happy days. They shall enjoy blessings the very reverse of the curses denounced on the disobedient, Deuteronomy 28:30. They shall plant vineyards and eat the fruit of them. See note on Isaiah 62:8.

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 65:24

Isaiah 65:24. Before they call I will answer “Behold here,” says Vitringa, “a desirable blessing, the truest seal of divine favour and paternal love. The closest conjunction of heaven and earth, that is, of God and men, is expressed in this verse; seeing that God declares he will abundantly and immediately satisfy the desires of his people, which desires are here supposed to be just and conformable to his will; and that he will be of such goodness as of his own accord to prevent their... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 65:25

Isaiah 65:25. The wolf and the lamb shall feed together Concerning the metaphorical sense of these expressions see chap. 11:7, and 35:9.

Donald C. Fleming

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Isaiah 65:17-25

A new creation (65:17-25)Israel’s condition in the time of the prophet is then contrasted with conditions in the new Jerusalem, the kingdom of the Messiah. That kingdom is not an improved version of the old Israelite kingdom, but is something entirely new. It is a new creation, where the quality of life will be different from that of the present world. Sorrow will be replaced by rejoicing. Life will not be cut short except where God acts in judgment (17-20).In the new creation people will have... read more
