イザヤ書 7:6 JC

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Isaiah 7:1-17

the Sign of Immanuel Isaiah 7:1-17 A new cycle of prophecy begins here, covering the reign of Ahaz. The complete history which illustrates these chapters is given in 2 Chronicles 28:5 . The invasion of Judah by Syria and Samaria was permitted because a severe warning was needed to enforce Isaiah’s remonstrances and appeals. See 2 Kings 15:37 . The Holy City, as Isaiah predicted, was not to be trodden by the invader, though it would pass through severe suffering and anxiety. This immunity,... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 7:1-25

Immediately following this new call of the prophet, we have the account of his encounter with Ahaz. Rezin of Syria and Pekah of Israel had entered into a confederacy against Judah, and a great fear possessed the people. The prophet declares to him that the counsel of these kings shall not prevail if he, that is, Ahaz, will be quiet and trust in God. A sign from Jehovah is offered, but he refuses to ask one. This refusal is an act of unbelief, which the prophet rebukes, and then declares that... read more

Wells of Living Water Commentary - Isaiah 7:5-14

The Birth of Christ in Isaiah Isaiah 7:5-14 ; Isaiah 9:6-7 INTRODUCTORY WORDS The Book of Revelation opens thus: "The Revelation of Jesus Christ." "We see no reason why the whole Bible is not a "revelation of Jesus Christ." We see no reason why the Book of Isaiah is not a "revelation of Jesus Christ." We know that Isaiah, the same as other Old Testament Books, carries much by way of history, and yet we contend that the history of the Bible is there because of its particular relationship to... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 7:1-9

God Appeals to Ahaz Asking Him To Trust Him (Isaiah 7:1-9 ). Syria and Israel, in seeking to join an alliance against Assyria, called on Judah to join them, and when Ahaz was reluctant, determined to bring him to heel. (As far as we know up to this point Judah had not had to pay tribute to Assyria, probably because of the remoteness of its capital). But Yahweh tells Ahaz that he is right to reject any part in the alliance, but must rather trust in Him. Unfortunately, and very foolishly,... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 7:1-16

Isaiah 7:1-Nehemiah : . Isaiah Gives Ahaz the Encouraging Sign of Immanuel when he is Dismayed by the Alliance of Syria and Ephraim against him.— For the historical circumstances see pp. 59, 70f. Apart from Isaiah 7:1, which is derived from 2 Kings 16:5 and is out of chronological order, this section seems to have been written by an editor on the basis of Isaiah’ s autobiography (contrast the 1st person of the preceding chapter with the 3rd of this). The alarm, described in the picturesque... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 7:6

Let us make a breach therein; either, 1. Break and divide that country into two parts, one for time, and another for me; or rather, 2. Break their power and kingdom, and subdue it to ourselves: for, 1. The same word and phrase is so used 2 Chronicles 32:1, where there was no such division intended. 2. Because the next clause intimates that the kingdom of Judah was still to be united under another king, who should pay tribute to them severally, as they should agree. The son of Tabeal; some... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Isaiah 7:3-25

ISAIAH’S INTERVIEW WITH AHAZIsaiah 7:3-25. Then said the Lord unto Isaiah, &c.In this interview of Isaiah with Ahaz we have an instance—I. Of God’s efforts to turn men from ruinous courses. God is the great Lawgiver, and the Judge before whose bar all impenitent transgressors of His law will have to stand. Absolute inflexibility is necessarily His characteristic in both these capacities. But these are not the only capacities He seeks to sustain to us. It is His ambition to be the Saviour of... read more

Chapter 7Now Uzziah is dead and his grandson Ahaz is reigning.It came to pass in the days of Ahaz the son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, the king of Judah, that Rezin was the king of Syria, and Pekah was the son of Remaliah, the king of Israel ( Isaiah 7:1 ),So Pekah was ruling in Israel.

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 7:1-25

Isaiah 7:1 . In the days of Ahaz, the second or the third year of his reign. Chapters 5. and 6. are therefore out of place. Isaiah 7:6 . Let us go up against Judah and set a king in the midst of it, even the son of Tabeal. The rabbins make him to be a relative of the reigning family in Samaria. They gave away David’s throne before they had conquered it! Isaiah 7:8 . The head of Syria is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin. But Jerusalem now had the Lord for her head. Within... read more
