Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 44:6-23

Isaiah 44:6-Ruth : , Isaiah 44:21-: . The Incomparableness of Yahweh, Who Redeems Israel.— Yahweh of (the heavenly) Hosts ( Genesis 2:1 *, 1 Samuel 1:3 *) asserts His uniqueness, challenging any who claim to have foretold the future aright to make their pretensions good. His people need not fear: long ago, as they can testify, He foretold what is now coming to pass. Let them remember the incomparableness of their Master. He blots out their sins as the sun disperses the morning clouds. The... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 44:10

What man in his wits can esteem that a god which his own hands have formed, or melt a graven image (understand out of the former clause, to be his god) which is profitable for nothing? He speaks of melting a graven image, because the image was first molten and cast in a mould, and then polished and graven with a tool, as was observed before. Or thus, Who art thou, O man, that formest a god, or meltest a graven image to worship it, which is profitable for nothing? Come hither, and let me reason... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Isaiah 44:9-20

IDOL-MAKERSIsaiah 44:9-20. They that make a graven image, &c.What have we in this section of this chapter? An effective exposure of the folly of a practice that was almost universal! A fact in itself worth thinking about. We see the folly of the practice, yet it prevailed without any one suspecting its absurdity! Practical lesson: Things are not necessarily right because they are common. True of matters of faith and practice. Yet there is a general tendency to take it for granted that... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 44:1-28

Isaiah 44:5 . Another shall subscribe with his hand unto the Lord. This phrase is somewhat obscure; it is not said whether they signed a covenant, or imprinted some mark on their hand. The latter sense is preferred by the critics. Vide Poli Synopsis. Slaves were branded in the hand with their master’s name; the cruel Assyrians branded their forehead. The heathen generally imprinted on their children, the mark or the sign of the god to which they were devoted. The worshippers of the... read more

The Biblical Illustrator - Isaiah 44:9-20

Isaiah 44:9-20They that make a graven imageThe vanity of graven imagesSubstituting homely prose for glowing poetry we may, after a fashion, reduce the prophet’s thought to propositions like the following--1.Neither the idol nor its god knows anything, while Jehovah knows all. 2. Neither the idol nor its god can do aught, while Jehovah is almighty. 3. Neither the idol nor its god is aught, while Jehovah is the living God, God of the entire universe, and a God of love,--in a word, the perfect... read more
