以賽亞書 66:16 CUNPTS

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 66:1-24

Isaiah 66. Here divisions are hard to define. The theme— the coming punishment of the apostates and the coming glory of the pious— is pursued now on one side, now on the other. Isaiah 66:1-Numbers : . An Attack on the Projectors of a Rival Temple.— Those Jews who refused to accept the reformed religion apparently proposed to set up a rival temple. Yahweh scornfully demands of them in what manner of building they would house Him, whose habitation is the universe. These things— a temple and a... read more

Matthew Poole

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 66:16

This kind of rebuking is also called a pleading with them; so he threatens to plead against Gog with pestilence and blood, Ezekiel 38:22. God at first pleads with sinners by words; but if he cannot so prevail, he will plead with them in a way by which he will overcome by fire, pestilence, and blood. With all flesh; thus he threatens to do with all sinners, or with all the wicked Jews. The slain of the Lord shall be many; to the fire he threatens to add the sword, so as the slain of the Lord,... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Isaiah 66:1-24

Chapter 66Thus saith the LORD, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: where is the house that you build unto me? and where is the place of my rest? ( Isaiah 66:1 )They're going to build a new temple, but God says, "Hey, don't need it." And this is that temple that will probably be built at the covenant of the antichrist. Thus saith the Lord, "The heaven is My throne, the earth is My footstool. Where is the house that you will build for Me? Where is the place of My rest?"For all... read more

Joseph Sutcliffe

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 66:1-24

Isaiah 66:1 . The heaven is my throne. This chapter applies to Isaiah’s time, as well as to future times; and though the Lord rejected the impure worship of the temple, yet he would dwell with the contrite and with the tremblers at his word. It seems from the connection to import, that God would forsake his sanctuary, and dwell with those who worship him in spirit and in truth. Where is the house that ye build unto me? These words are spoken to designate the grandeur and immensity of the... read more

Daniel Whedon

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 66:15-16

15, 16. Will come with fire The figure partakes of imagery from Sinai a figure always at hand when demonstration of great trial scenes are before us. Isaiah 34:3. For by… his sword As a mighty warrior. Plead with all flesh With all men who are hostile to God and his Zion. The tenor of the words in this passage shows God’s pleading “with all flesh,” that is, representatively with the whole hostile Jewish race, to be not literally in words of reasoning, but in terrific pleadings (so to... read more
