Isaiah 32:9

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Isaiah 32:9-20

the Fruits of Righteousness Isaiah 32:9-20 When Christ’s kingdom is set up it will bring dismay to the poor children of fashion. For more days than there are in the year will they be troubled, Isaiah 32:10 , and will smite on their breasts in lamentation, Isaiah 32:12 . The prediction of Isaiah 32:15-20 includes Pentecost, and looks forward to the era which lies immediately beyond this travail of the world. What is now reckoned as a fruitful field will be regarded as a barren forest in... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 32:1-20

In this message the prophet describes the reign of the coming King, and then suddenly appeals to the women. He describes the reign of the King as establishment of order and creation of refuge and refreshment for all in distress. The beneficent effects of such a reign are restoration of sensibility and a true sense of values, in which men will know violence and call it by its right name, and recognize true nobility. Evidently conscious of how different were the circumstances in which he was... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 32:9-14

Life As It Will Be Before The King Comes In Terms of Careless Women At Ease (Isaiah 32:9-14 ). Isaiah showed neither fear nor favour. He was as ready to draw attention to the sins of the womenfolk as well as those of the men. He was concerned that none should be able to hide behind a cloak of anonymity. Here he castigates the better off women who enjoy their ease and are overconfident and complacent, we might almost say ‘cocky’, about themselves and their importance. He no doubt met many of... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 32:1-20

Isaiah 32. This chapter is regarded by some scholars as non-Isaianic on the ground of phraseology and ideas, but while it may have been interpolated, it is probably in the main Isaiah’ s work. It falls into two parts: ( a) Isaiah 32:1-Ruth :, ( b) Isaiah 32:9-Proverbs :. The date of the former is uncertain. It may belong to the same period as Isaiah 28-31. The address to the women which follows recalls the denunciation in Isaiah 3:16-Jeremiah :, but it does not necessarily belong to the same... read more

Matthew Poole

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 32:9

Rise up; bestir and prepare yourselves to hear, as it follows, and shake off sloth and carelessness. That are at ease; that indulge yourselves in idleness and luxury. Careless, Heb. confident or secure, who are insensible of your sin and danger. Daughters; the same before called women; whom he here reproveth and threateneth for their sins, as he did the men before for seeking to Egypt for help, and divers other sins, whereof the men were most guilty. read more

Chuck Smith

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Isaiah 32:1-20

Chapter 32Now as we get into chapter 32 Isaiah jumps over a couple of millennia at least, as he looks forward. As God is going to come down and as a crouching lion roaring and so forth, over her prey, in verse Isaiah 32:4 going back to chapter 31. As the Lord of hosts shall come down to fight for mount Zion, and for the hill thereof, He is likened unto a lion, a young lion that is roaring on his prey.When you turn to the book of Revelation and you read there of the return of Jesus Christ, it... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 32:1-20

Isaiah 32:3 . The eyes of them that see shall not be dim. The whole land shall be full of smiling affluence and joy; they shall have health of countenance, and look up with joy to a paternal throne. The passage applies farther to the Messiah, who opened the eyes of the blind, unstopped the ears of the deaf, and caused the dumb to publish his praise. Isaiah 32:15 . Till the Spirit be poured upon us from on high. The glory of the latter day is uniformly said to commence with an effusion... read more

Joseph Exell

The Biblical Illustrator - Isaiah 32:9

Isaiah 32:9Rise up, ye women, that are at easeFemale complacency reprovedIsaiah turns aside abruptly from his main theme.His eye, we may suppose, was arrested by the spectacle of some women, sitting down perhaps at a little distance from where he stood, and testifying their indifference to his words. In chap. 3. it was their vanity and love of display which called forth the prophet’s censure: here it is their complacency and unconcern. (Prof. S. B. Driver, D. D.) read more
