George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Isaiah 46:12

Israel. It shall no longer be a reproach. Cyrus shall restore my people to their own country. But Christ more full accomplished what is here declared respecting the establishment of his Church. (Calmet) read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 46:5-13

5-13 Here the folly of those who made idols, and then prayed to them, is exposed. How does the profuseness of idolaters shame the niggardliness of many who call themselves God's servants, but are for a religion which costs them nothing! The service of sin always costs a great deal. God puts it to them what senseless, helpless things idols are. Let, then, the Jews show themselves men, avoiding such abominations. Many Scripture prophecies, delivered long ago, are not yet fulfilled; but the... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Isaiah 46:8-13

A Reproof of Israel's Refusal to Believe the Divine Promises v. 8. Remember this, keeping in mind what the Lord was now about to proclaim, and show yourselves men, renouncing the childishness of idolatry; bring it again to mind, O ye transgressors, those who were forgetting the covenant and forsaking the true God. v. 9. Remember the former things of old, the miracles of God which happened in the earliest history of Israel, 43:18; for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is... read more

VII.—THE SEVENTH DISCOURSEThe overthrow of the Babylonian idols, and the gain that Israel shall derive from it for its knowledge of GodIsaiah 46:01. ISRAEL SHALL KNOW ITS GOD FROM THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HIM WHO BEARS AND THE IDOLS THAT ARE BORNEIsaiah 46:1-41 Bel boweth down, Nebo stoopeth,Their idols 1were upon the beasts, and upon the cattle:2Your carriages were heavy loaden;They are a burden to the weary beast.2 They stoop, they bow down together;They could not deliver the... read more

Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Isaiah 46:12-13

Isaiah A RIGHTEOUSNESS NEAR AND A SWIFT SALVATION Isa_46:12 - Isa_46:13 . God has promised that He will dwell with him that is humble and of a contrite heart. Jesus has shed the oil of His benediction on the poor in spirit. It is the men who form the exact antithesis to these characters who are addressed here. The ‘stout-hearted’ are those who, being untouched in conscience and ignorant of their sin, are self-reliant and almost defiant before God. That temper is branded here, though, of... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Isaiah 46:1-13

God’s Salvation Shall not Tarry Isaiah 46:1-13 Here is a startling contrast! Babylon is broken up. An invading army of stern monotheists have slain the idolatrous priests at their altars and are engaged in carrying out the idols for the bonfire. And as the Jewish remnant is witnessing the extraordinary spectacle, they are reminded that their God does not require to be borne. Nay, on the contrary He has borne His people from the earliest days and will continue to bear them till the heavens... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 46:1-13

This chapter and the next contain the prophecy of the fall of Babylon. This one describes the failure of the gods. It opens with a graphic picture of the idols being hurried away for safety, carried on beasts of burden. In immediate contrast the prophet describes Jehovah as carrying His people, and the contrast is endorsed as He inquires, "To whom will ye liken Me, and make Me equal, and compare Me, that we may be like?" Thus He sets forth the fundamental difference between false gods and the... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 46:1-13

YAHWEH IS ABOUT TO ACT SO AS TO ESTABLISH HIS PEOPLE AND PREPARE THE WAY FOR HIS SERVANT (Isaiah 44:24 to Isaiah 48:22 ). As with what has gone before it is necessary for us to determine the viewpoint from which we will see these narratives, and in order to do so we must put ourselves in the shoes of Isaiah. Chapters 1-39 were mainly behind him, Hezekiah was dead, and what lay before him was the future in terms of Manasseh’s reign. That reign had not had a promising beginning. Manasseh had... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 46:11

“Calling a bird of prey from the east, The man of my counsel from a far country, Yes I have spoken, I also bring it about, I have purposed, I also will do it.” Let them remember the former things, His ancient activity, and what He has declared which is still not yet done. Isaiah is now dealing with God’s prime purposes in history and their fulfilment, and he therefore again briefly recapitulates the advent of Abraham (Isaiah 41:2-4), for the prime example of Yahweh’s ancient activity is Abraham... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 46:12-13

“Listen to me you stubborn-hearted, You who are far from righteousness, I am bringing near my righteousness, It will not be far off, And my salvation will not linger, And I will place salvation in Zion, For Israel my glory.” This is an apt ending to a chapter which has concentrated on God’s uniqueness and the fulfilment of His purposes, which is Isaiah’s constant prime concern. It explains why Yahweh has brought His bird of prey, who executes His counsel, from the east. It is a call to the... read more
