John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 2:1-22

2-4. occur also with a few slight variations in Micah 4:1-4. The passage appears to be borrowed in Isaiah, because (a) it suits its context better in Micah, and (b) it is more complete in Micah, Micah 4:4 being a part of it. If Isaiah is quoting from Micah, the latter prophet must have spoken the words before the occasion referred to in Jeremiah 26:18. Both prophets may be quoting from some ancient and well-known prediction regarding the future of Zion.2. In the last days] RV ’in the latter... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 2:1-30

Isaiah’s Preaching early in the Reign of AhazIsaiah 2-4 are closely connected, and Isaiah 5 is generally thought to belong to the same period, though it probably represents discourses delivered rather later. There are two points which serve as indications of date: (a) The influx of foreign fashions, both in religion (Isaiah 2:6, Isaiah 2:8) and in common life (Isaiah 3:16-23, where the difficulty of explaining the names for the various articles of female attire from the Hebrew suggests that the... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Isaiah 2:6

(6) Therefore thou hast forsaken thy people . . .—Better, For Thou hast . . . This was the sad, dark present, in contrast with the bright future. Jehovah “went not forth” with the armies of Judah (Psalms 68:7); and the Syrians, Edomites, and Philistines, possibly the Assyrians also (2 Kings 16:9; 2 Chronicles 28:17-20), were laying the lands waste.Because they be replenished from the east.—The disasters of the time are viewed as chastisements for sin, and the sin consisted in casting off their... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Isaiah 2:7

(7) Their land also is full of silver and gold.—The long and prosperous reign of Uzziah, especially his trade with Ophir, had reproduced the wealth of the days of Solomon. Tribute came from the Arabians and Ammonites (2 Chronicles 26:8). The words point to an earlier date than that at which Ahaz was left” naked and distressed” (2 Chronicles 28:19). Even under Hezekiah, Sennacherib records in the inscription on the Taylor cylinder that the tribute paid by that king amounted to 30 talents of... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Isaiah 2:8

(8) Their land also is full of idols.—The word which Isaiah chooses for “idols” (elîlîm—i.e., vain, false, gods) seems intentionally contrasted with elîm (gods, or mighty ones), and may fairly be rendered by no-gods. The reign of Ahaz was conspicuous from the first for this cultus (2 Chronicles 28:2-3), but it had been prominent even under Jotham (2 Chronicles 27:2). read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Isaiah 2:9

(9) And the mean man boweth down.—The English gives adequately the significance of the two words for “man”—in Hebrew, adam and îsh. The Authorised Version applies the words to the prostrations of the worshippers of idols, whether of low or high degree; others refer them to the punishment of that idolatry: The mean man must be bowed down . . . the great man must be humbled.Therefore forgive them not.—As a prayer the words find a parallel in Psalms 69:27; Psalms 109:14, but the rendering adopted... read more

Spiritual Transformation Isaiah 2:4 Wherever Jesus reigns, this is one of the fruits of His sovereignty. The sword is converted into a ploughshare, and the spear into a pruning-hook. The sword is not destroyed. It is transformed. I. This is the method of Jesus. When I enter the Kingdom of God, and become a member of the pledged and aspiring host, I pass under the active and liberal influence of grace. I bring with me all the powers which I have been exercising in the ways of the world. I bring... read more

CHAPTER IITHE THREE JERUSALEMS740-735 B.C.Isaiah 2:1-22; Isaiah 3:1-26; Isaiah 4:1-6AFTER the general introduction, in chapter 1, to the prophecies of Isaiah, there comes another portion of the book, of greater length, but nearly as distinct as the first.

They deal with exactly the same subjects, but they differ greatly inform. One section (chapters 2-4.)... read more

CHAPTER 2 Zion’s Future Glory and the Day of Jehovah 1. The glories in the latter days (Isaiah 2:1-4 ) 2. Exhortation to walk in the light (Isaiah 2:5 ) 3.

The Day... read more
