The Church's Song of Praise v. 1. In that day, at the time of the final deliverance of the ransomed of God, shall this song be sung in the land of Judah, by the believers who have been preserved by the power of the Lord: We have a strong city, namely, the city of God, Psalms 46:4, His holy Church; salvation will God appoint for walls and bulwarks, His redemption is established as a strong wall of exterior and interior defense, so that no enemy is able to penetrate inside and take away the... read more

Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Isaiah 26:1-2

Isaiah THE SONG OF TWO CITIES OUR STRONG CITY Isa_26:1 - Isa_26:2 . What day is ‘that day’? The answer carries us back a couple of chapters, to the great picture drawn by the prophet of a world-wide judgment, which is followed by a burst of song from the ransomed people of Jehovah, like Miriam’s chant by the shores of the Red Sea. The ‘city of confusion,’ the centre of the power hostile to God and man, falls; and its fall is welcomed by a chorus of praises. The words of my text are the... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Isaiah 26:1-10

Peace through Steadfast Trust Isaiah 26:1-10 No doubt when Babylon fell before Cyrus the Jewish remnant under Ezra and Nehemiah sang this triumphal ode, which contrasts the respective lots of Babylon and Jerusalem. The one is the city of this world and its children; the other the city and home of the saints. The fate of Babylon is delineated in Isaiah 26:5-6 ; but with what glowing words does the prophet dwell on the blessedness of those who are fellow-citizens with the saints and of the... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 26:1-21

Naturally following this prophecy of praise for the activity of Jehovah is the great song which will be sung in the day of Jehovah's ultimate victory. It is praise for the establishment of the city, and for deliverance. The deep secret of the new condition is the secret of the mind stayed on Jehovah. In Him is the Rock of Ages. He has overcome enemies and established the just. The song merges into one of praise for this Jehovah. Other lords have had dominion, but it is Jehovah who has... read more

James Nisbet's Church Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 26:1-2

CITY AND CITIZENS‘A strong city.… The righteous nation.’ Isaiah 26:1-Exodus : This chapter is ushered in with a song. And it is well worthy of it. What are we called to study? I. The city of God ( Isaiah 26:1-Exodus :).—This vision of a city into which the redeemed shall be gathered is seen more clearly in the Revelation, but we may notice that the features in the city are substantially the same in both. And that is because they must be true of any city. What a city needs is to be safe and to... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 26:1-2

The Certainty of Yahweh’s Salvation and the Humiliation of Moab (Isaiah 25:9 to Isaiah 26:2 ). In that day when death is defeated His people will be glad and rejoice in His salvation, and sing of Him Who is their strong city in which they can be safe, while Moab and all who are like them will be trodden down in the dung. For Moab is the picture of all that is low, it is Yahweh’s washpot (Psalms 60:8). Analysis. a And each will say in that day, “See, this is our God, we have waited for Him... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 26:1-4

The Song Of Deliverance And The Strong City (Isaiah 26:1-4 ). The first four verses of chapter 26 with their description of the strong city of God with its walls and bulwarks of salvation, which is for the righteous who hold the truth to enter, connect back to Isaiah 25:9, and are in contrast with Isaiah 25:10-12. But they may also be contrasted with the lofty city of Isaiah 26:5, which stands proudly on its summit but will be dragged to the ground. They thus connect the previous passage with... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 26:1-19

Isaiah 26:1-Psalms : . Memories and Anticipations.— The poem, which is a very elaborate composition, seems to have been written in confident expectation of deliverance, though the actual situation is still one of distress. Jerusalem has been made impregnable, let the righteous enter in. The unwavering mind is kept by God in unbroken peace ( cf. mg.) . He is worthy of trust, for He is an everlasting rock; He has laid low the exalted city, the afflicted Jews trample it under foot. The way of... read more
