Isaiah 12:6

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 12:1-6

Isaiah 12. Songs of Thanksgiving.— This is a late appendix to the preceding. It is imitative throughout and copies late passages. Isaiah 11:16 compares Israel’ s return from the Dispersion with the deliverance of the Hebrews at the Exodus. As a song of praise (Exodus 15) celebrates the destruction of the Egyptians at the Red Sea, so two brief songs ( Isaiah 12:1-Leviticus :, Isaiah 12:4-Joshua :) are inserted here, which have close points of contact with Exodus 15 and some Pss., especially... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Isaiah 12:1-6

ISAIAH’S VISION OF THE KING AND OF HIS KINGDOMCHAPTERS 11 AND 12This is one of the visions that Isaiah saw (chap. Isaiah 1:1, Isaiah 2:1, &c.). He was a dreamer of dreams. With a keen perception, not surpassed, of the men and things actually surrounding him, much of his life was passed in an ideal and future world. There he found comfort and strength to endure the sorrows that otherwise would have crushed him. At the outset of his ministry, when the great king who had done so much to... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Isaiah 12:6

THE DUTY OF GLADNESSIsaiah 12:6. Cry out and shout, &c.Two things are here observable:—1. The person addressed, “thou inhabitant of Zion” [1012] i.e., one who is no longer a stranger and foreigner, but a fellow-citizen with the saints (Ephesians 2:12; Ephesians 2:19). 2. The admonition given, “Cry out and shout.” Consider—[1012] Zion was the name of a high mound situated upon a bed of rock enclosed within the walls of Jerusalem, and making the finest and strongest part thereof. Here was... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Isaiah 12:1-6

Chapter 12And in that day ( Isaiah 12:1 ).This day of the Lord when He returns and establishes His kingdom.thou shalt say, O LORD, I will praise thee: though thou wast angry with me, thine anger is turned away, and thou comfortedst me ( Isaiah 12:1 ).This is, of course, the declaration of Israel who had been dispersed in the anger of the Lord.

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 12:1-6

Isaiah 12:2 . JEHOVAH is my strength. Lowth reads, Lord, as in the English; but in the Hebrew book, Sepher Ikkarim, we read, “The scriptures call the Messiah JAH or JAOH, our righteousness; indicating that he will be the mediatorial Lord, by whom we shall obtain justification, from the name; which is indeed the name of the NAME, or the essential name of God.” By the Name this author means JEHOVAH, which the Jews in their exile do not pronounce, but substitute in reading the name Adonai or... read more

The inhabitants of Zion and Jerusalem, whom God had in a peculiar manner protected from Sennacherib’s violence (Isaiah 12:6). Those that have received distinguishing favours from God ought to be most forward and zealous in praising Him. The Gospel Church is Zion; Christ is Zion’s King; those that have a place and name in that should lay out themselves to diffuse the knowledge... read more

Isaiah 12:6Cry out and shout, thou inhabitant of ZionRapturous enthusiasm should characterise religionHere is a call for enthusiasm, rapture, and what would generally be denominated madness.Still, the words are here, and they are perfectly clear as to their meaning and purpose, and a reason is given for the cry and for the shout; that reason is--“for great is the Holy One of Israel in the midst of thee.” Men have been infuriated by earthly deliverances, and rightly so, and brought into... read more
