以赛亚书 51:20 RCUVSS

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 51:17-23

Isaiah 51:17 to Isaiah 52:12 . The Sorrow of Jerusalem, which shall Give Place to Joy. Isaiah 51:17-Proverbs : . The prophet, obviously familiar with the vision of Jeremiah 25:15, pictures Jerusalem as staggering under the stupefaction caused by the draught which Yahweh in His anger has compelled her to drink. Two pairs of evils (expressed in Heb. by word-plays) have befallen her, and who is there to comfort her (read “ who shall” for “ how shall I” with VSS). Under the fury of Yahweh her... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 51:20

Thy sons have fainted; they are so far from being able to comfort thee, as was said, Isaiah 51:18, that they themselves faint away for want of comfort, and through famine. They lie dead by famine, or the sword of the enemy, at the head of all the streets; where men enter in or go out of the streets, where the enemy found them either opposing their entrance, or running out of them to make an escape. As a wild bull in a net: those of them who are not slain are struggling for life; and although... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Isaiah 51:20

JEHOVAH’S ANGERIsaiah 51:17; Isaiah 51:20; Isaiah 51:22. The fury of the Lord, &c. [1587][1587] See vol. i. pp. 284–286, and H. E. I. 2288–2294. God’s anger must, of course, be understood in a manner in accordance with the Divine nature; and we are not to suppose that precisely the same passions or the same feelings are referred to when this language is used of God which is implied when it is used of men. It means that His nature, His laws, His government, His feelings, are all arrayed... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Isaiah 51:1-23

Tonight we have a marvelous study as we look at Isaiah, chapters 51-55, in which the prophet sees so clearly the suffering and the rejection of God's provision for man in sending His Son to die for our sins. In fact, these prophecies of Isaiah so clearly describe what did happen to Jesus Christ in His rejection, in His suffering, in His death, it is as though they were written after it happened rather than 600 years before it happened.The Lord is calling unto the nation of Israel, unto His... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 51:1-23

Isaiah 51:4 . A law shall proceed from me. The gospel law of liberty and love is here intended, as in Joel 2:31. No other law ever emanated from Jerusalem. Isaiah 51:5 . My righteousness is near. Christ, the Just and Holy one, the Lord our righteousness. The isles shall wait upon me. Better thus, the distant lands shall expect me, the desire of all nations. Christ was the earnest expectation of the whole creation. Romans 8:19. Isaiah 51:6 . They that dwell therein shall die in like... read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 51:18-20

18-20. There is none to guide her There is none like Messiah to guide and lead. The sons of Jerusalem namely, the priests and prophets have lost character, hence ability spiritually to guide. Two things, or two classes of evils, have happened to her: destruction ( waste) and desolation famine and the sword. The state suffers the first, the people the second. Where are the pitying ones to give thee aid? Or, by whom shall I, Messiah, render thee aid? See Lamentations 2:13. The... read more
