以賽亞書 6:10-11 CUNPTS

Geneva Study Bible - Isaiah 6:11

6:11 Then said I, Lord, {p} how long? And he answered, Until the cities shall be wasted without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land be utterly desolate,(p) As he was moved with the zeal of God’s glory, so was he touched with a charitable affection toward the people. read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Isaiah 6:1-13

PROPHET ’S CALL This makes a short lesson but a distinctive one. The prophet is giving an account of himself, relating the circumstances under which he entered the prophetic office, and the authority by which he speaks. The story divides itself thus: the vision (Isaiah 6:1-4 ); the effect of the vision in producing conviction and confession of sin (Isaiah 6:5 ); his cleansing from sin (Isaiah 6:6-7 ); his call to service (Isaiah 6:8 ); the dedication of himself to that service (Isaiah 6:8 );... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Isaiah 6:9-10

Reader, pray attend to these verses: for so important are they considered in the gospel-church, that no less than six times are they taken notice of, and referred to, in the after-writings of the scriptures. All the Evangelists quote them, and they are again spoken of in the Acts of the Apostles, and by the Apostle Paul, in his Epistle to the Romans. See in proof, Matthew 13:14 ; Mark 4:12 ; Luke 8:10 ; John 12:39-40 ; Acts 28:26-27 and Romans 11:8 . And what awful confirmations have we of... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Isaiah 6:11-12

Here the prophet, as if struck with what he had seen and heard, puts in a question, and a solemn one it is: "How long shall it be that the enemy of souls shall triumph, and fallen man remain under the ruins of his apostacy?" Hear what Jesus himself saith as mediator on this subject, Isaiah 49:4 . And how have his servants in all ages complained, Jeremiah 20:9 . John heard also the anxious question of the martyrs, much to the same amount, Revelation 6:9-10 . read more

George Haydock

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Isaiah 6:10

Blind. The prophets are said to do what they denounce. (St. Thomas Aquinas, [Summa Theologiae] 1. q. xxiv. 3.) (Sanctius) --- Septuagint, "heavy or gross is the heart," &c. The authors of the New Testament quote it thus less harshly. --- Them. Is God unwilling to heal? Why then does he send his prophet? (Calmet) --- He intimates that all the graces offered would be rendered useless by the hardened Jews. (St. Isidore. Pelus 2. ep. 270.) --- Hebrew may be, "surely they will not see," &c.... read more

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Isaiah 6:11

Desolate. By means of Nabuchodonosor, (St. Chrysostom) and the Romans, (Eusebius, &c.) or even till the end of the world, their obstinacy will continue. read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 6:9-13

9-13 God sends Isaiah to foretell the ruin of his people. Many hear the sound of God's word, but do not feel the power of it. God sometimes, in righteous judgment, gives men up to blindness of mind, because they will not receive the truth in the love of it. But no humble inquirer after Christ, need to fear this awful doom, which is a spiritual judgment on those who will still hold fast their sins. Let every one pray for the enlightening of the Holy Spirit, that he may perceive how precious are... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Isaiah 6:8-13

The Mission of the Prophet v. 8. Also I heard the voice of the Lord, of the All-powerful, the great Ruler of the universe, saying, Whom shall I send? the call being for volunteers to proclaim the atonement set forth in the vision just vouchsafed the prophet. And who will go for Us? the persons of the Trinity here consulting together in this very important matter. Then said I, Here am I; send me. The prophet, in the spirit of voluntary service wrought by the Lord, a principal requisite for... read more

Johann Peter Lange

Lange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures: Critical, Doctrinal and Homiletical - Isaiah 6:1-13

C.—THE THIRD PORTALIsaiah 6:0.We have already shown above, in the general introduction to the threefold entrance, that Isaiah would not place this account of his call at the head because he felt the need of preparing his readers for it. At the same time he brings it about that this, not merely elevated, but holy, and even holiest of all dramas, is put in the place that becomes a holiest of all, that is to say, not without, but within; not in aditu, but in adyto. As in the temple, the court of... read more

Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Isaiah 6:6-13

Isaiah VISION AND SERVICE Isa_6:1 - Isa_6:13 . WE may deal with this text as falling into three parts: the vision, its effect on the prophet, and his commission. I. The Vision. -’In the year that King Uzziah died’ is more than a date for chronological accuracy. It tells not only when, but why, the vision was given. The throne of David was empty. God never empties places in our homes and hearts, or in the nation or the Church, without being ready to fill them. He sometimes empties them that... read more
