以賽亞書 48:1 RCUVTS

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 48:1-8

1-8 The Jews valued themselves on descent from Jacob, and used the name of Jehovah as their God. They prided themselves respecting Jerusalem and the temple, yet there was no holiness in their lives. If we are not sincere in religion, we do but take the name of the Lord in vain. By prophecy they were shown how God would deal with them, long before it came to pass. God has said and done enough to prevent men's boasting of themselves, which makes the sin and ruin of the proud worse; sooner or... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Isaiah 48:1-11

A Testimony Concerning the House of Jacob v. 1. Hear ye this, O house of Jacob, the form of address purposely being cold and distant, which are called by the name of Israel, presuming upon this right, and are come forth out of the waters of Judah, being physical descendants of the patriarchs, indeed, but lacking in spirituality and faith, which swear by the name of the Lord, the gracious God of the covenant, and make mention of the God of Israel, who intended to make Israel His true,... read more

Lange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures: Critical, Doctrinal and Homiletical - Isaiah 48:1-2

IX.—THE NINTH DISCOURSERecapitulation and ConclusionIsaiah 48:0This chapter reproduces the chief ingredients of the foregoing discourses from chap. 40. on. By this brief recapitulation, it aims at a mighty effect on the spirits of the hearers by means of a total impression. A glorious redemption, analogous to that wrought by Moses, is presented to the view of the people of the Exile, from whose blessings, of course, the wicked are excluded. The last-named thought recurs like a refrain after... read more

Lange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures: Critical, Doctrinal and Homiletical - Isaiah 48:1-22

HOMILETICAL HINTS1. On Isaiah 48:1-2. “We, for our part, are also quite fallen into Jewish security. For we take great comfort from this, that we know, that we have God’s word simple and pure, and the same is indeed highly to be praised and valued. But it is not enough for one to have the word. One ought and must live according to it, then will God make account of us. But where one lives without the fear of God and in sin, and hears the word without amendment, there God will punish all the... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Isaiah 48:1-16

the Obstinate and Insincere Rebuked Isaiah 48:1-16 We are meant to be for God’s praise and glory; but we may delay the realization of His high purpose. Our neck iron, our brow brass, we trust in idols and refuse to open our ear. It is necessary, therefore, to send us to Babylon, where, as in a furnace for silver, the dross and alloy are purged away. Many of us are in furnaces which have been rendered needful through our evil ways. Notwithstanding our sins, God comes to the furnace mouth and... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 48:1-22

This chapter constitutes the last section of the division dealing with the purpose of peace. It is a great appeal to the people. It first describes Jehovah's methods (verses Isa 48:1-11 ). He has had to do with a failing people, a people mentioning His name, but not in truth. His method has been that of prophecy and swift performance on account of their obstinacy, and to prevent them attributing to idols the things wrought by Jehovah. All this He has done for His own name's sake. This method... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 48:1-11

The Failure of Israel/Judah And His Intention For Them (Isaiah 48:1-11 ). Isaiah 48:1-2 “Hear this, O house of Jacob, who are called by the name of Israel, And are come forth out of the waters of Judah. Who swear by the name of Yahweh, and make mention of the God of Israel, Not in truth nor in righteousness, When they call themselves of the holy city, and stay themselves on the God of Israel. Yahweh of hosts is his name.” God now calls through Isaiah to His sinful people as Jacob/Israel who... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 48:1-22

YAHWEH IS ABOUT TO ACT SO AS TO ESTABLISH HIS PEOPLE AND PREPARE THE WAY FOR HIS SERVANT (Isaiah 44:24 to Isaiah 48:22 ). As with what has gone before it is necessary for us to determine the viewpoint from which we will see these narratives, and in order to do so we must put ourselves in the shoes of Isaiah. Chapters 1-39 were mainly behind him, Hezekiah was dead, and what lay before him was the future in terms of Manasseh’s reign. That reign had not had a promising beginning. Manasseh had... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 48:1-11

Isaiah 48:1-1 Kings : . A Recapitulation of the Argument from Prophecy.— To the original text a redactor has added a commentary (bracketed below) from a different standpoint. Whereas the prophet regarded Israel as having more than paid the penalty of her sins, the additions represent her as obstinately and inveterately sinful, and long addicted to the worship of images.“ Hearken,” says Yahweh to His people [proud of their nationality and attached to His cultus]. “ Long ago I predicted what... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 48:1

Hear ye this, what I am now going to say against thee, that thou mayst be assured that that great deliverance which I have determined and declared to give time is not for thy own sake, but for my name’s sake. Which are called by the name of Israel; which are Israelites in name, but not in truth, as it follows. Out of the waters of Judah; from the lineage of your progenitor, Judah, as waters flow from a fountain, and as the Israelites are said to be of the fountain of Israel, Psalms 68:26.... read more
