Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 38:1-22

Isaiah 36-39. This section has been extracted from 2 Kings 18:13 to 2 Kings 20:19, and the Song of Hezekiah has been added. For an exposition see the notes on 2 K.; here we have simply to deal with the Song of Hezekiah. Isaiah 38:10-Proverbs : . Thanksgiving for Deliverance from Imminent Death.— This is now generally regarded as a post-exilic psalm. Its absence in the parallel narratine in Kings is significant. Apparently it was inserted here by an editor who thought it suitable to Hezekiah’... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 38:12

Mine age is departed; the time of my life is expired. As a shepherd’s tent, which is easily and speedily removed. I have cut off, to wit, by my sins, provoking God to do it. Or, I do declare, and have concluded, that my life is or will be suddenly cut off; for men are oft said in Scripture to do those things which they only declare and pronounce to be done; as men are said to pollute, and to remit and retain sins, and the like, when they only declare men and things to be polluted, and sins to... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Isaiah 38:1-19

HEZEKIAH’S PRAYERIsaiah 38:1-19In this narrative there are three points of difficulty and many points of instruction.I. THREE POINTS OF DIFFICULTY.1. Why was Hezekiah afraid to die? Answer: (1.) Even to a Christian man, death is an event of unutterable solemnity, for which he feels it necessary to make the most serious preparation, and which he would not like to have occur to him suddenly. (2.) Hezekiah had not that clear view of the future which has been granted to us (Isaiah 38:18; 2 Timothy... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Isaiah 38:1-22

Chapter 38In those days was Hezekiah sick unto death. And Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz came unto him, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Set your house in order: for you shall die, and not live ( Isaiah 38:1 ).These are pretty heavy tidings. You get sick and a prophet of God comes and says, "Hey, set your house in order, man, this is it. You're going to die and not live." There are things that we must take care of before we die. Important things to take care of. The most important... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 38:1-22

Isaiah 38:1 . Set thine house in order, for thou shalt die, and not live. This burden of the Lord placed the prophet in a critical situation. God saw that nothing milder than this harsh and tremendous stroke would bring the royal mind to recollection, and elicit those fine sentiments of repentance which follow in the subsequent psalm. But the prophet’s life would also have been in danger, had it not been for the recession of the solar shadow on the dial of Ahaz, having as a false prophet... read more

Isaiah 38:12As a shepherd’s tentThe inconstancy of earthly lifeHe saith “a shepherd’s tent,” because that represents the inconstancy and uncertainty of our life, more than any other tent.The soldier’s tent may stand pitched long in a place, as in sieges and the like; but shepherds change the place of their tent every day, because of the opportunity of fresh pasture for their cattle.

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 38:12

12. Mine age is departed “Age,” from דור , ( dor,) which, besides meaning a period, a generation, also means a dwelling; so here body, the dwelling of the soul. It has this meaning from being round, like a nomad tent. Thus the parallel with next phrase is complete. Is removed… as a shepherd’s tent The same idea runs in the words, I have cut off… cut me off, etc., as a weaver cuts his threads of warp when he has finished his cloth has cut the web which fastens to the loom.
