Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 28:5-15

5-15 The prophet next turns to Judah, whom he calls the residue of his people. Happy are those alone, who glory in the Lord of hosts himself. Hence his people get wisdom and strength for every service and every conflict. But it is only in Christ Jesus that the holy God communicates with sinful man. And whether those that teach are drunk with wine, or intoxicated with false doctrines and notions concerning the kingdom and salvation of the Messiah, they not only err themselves, but lead... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Isaiah 28:1-13

Concerning Samaria and Jerusalem. Chapters 28 to 33 in the Book of Isaiah contain a cycle of prophecies and proclamations concerning the relation of Judah to Assyria in the time of King Hezekiah. Ahaz had sinned in seeking protection against Syria and Israel not in the Lord, but in Assyria, thereby making Assyria a scourge of Judah. Hezekiah, otherwise a pious king, erred in seeking protection against Assyria by appealing to Egypt and entering into an alliance with this heathen nation. All... read more

The False qnd the True Refuge v. 14. Wherefore hear the word of the Lord, ye scornful men, those who despised and mocked the prophet's warning, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem, the capital being named for the entire Southern Kingdom. v. 15. Because ye have said, in some further mockery which is now recorded, We have made a covenant with death, confident that death itself could not harm them, and with hell, the realm of the dead, are we at agreement, hoping to be safe against... read more

THIRD SUBDIVISIONTHE RELATION OF ISRAEL TO ASSYRIA IN THE TIME OF KING HEZEKIAHIsaiah 28-33As Isaiah 7-12, resting on the facts related Isaiah 7:1 sqq., contain the first great cycle of Isaiah’s prophecies, so Isaiah 28-33, which have for their basis the facts narrated in the historical appendix (36–37) contain the second great cycle. Chapters 7–12 depict the relation of Israel to Assyria in the time of Ahaz. Our chapters set forth this relation as it stood in the time of Hezekiah. As the sin... read more

Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Isaiah 28:6-13

Isaiah THE JUDGMENT OF DRUNKARDS AND MOCKERS Isa_28:1 - Isa_28:13 . This prophecy probably falls in the first years of Hezekiah, when Samaria still stood, and the storm of war was gathering black in the north. The portion included in the text predicts the fall of Samaria Isa_28:1 - Isa_28:6 and then turns to Judah, which is guilty of the same sins as the northern capital, and adds to them mockery of the prophet’s message. Isaiah speaks with fiery indignation and sharp sarcasm. His words are... read more

the Decay of an Intemperate People Isaiah 28:1-13 A new series of prophecies begins here and extends to Isaiah 32:20 . Samaria is described as a faded crown or garland on the nation’s head because it was disgraced by the national drunkenness. See Amos 4:1 . So corrupted was she by strong drink and its attendant evils that the Assyrian invader would plunder her as a man gathers ripe figs. But to Judah, that is, the remnant , the Lord would be a crown or garland, not of pride but of glory.... read more

Truth the only Refuge Isaiah 28:14-29 In the beginning of Hezekiah’s reign the Jewish leaders had made an alliance with Assyria, on whom they relied to protect them against any and all foes. But the prophet told them plainly that they would be disappointed, and that when the Assyrian scourge passed through the land toward Egypt, it would involve them also in disaster, Isaiah 28:18 . Then he broke out with this sublime description of the only foundation of security that could never fail. The... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 28:1-29

Here begins the third and last circle of the first division of the book. It consists of a series of prophecies concerning the chosen people and the world. In this chapter we have a graphic revelation of the difficulties with which Isaiah had to contend, and of his unswerving loyalty to truth. It falls into four parts. In the first (verses Isa 28:1-6 ), the prophet announces the judgment on Ephraim. His glorious beauty is to be consumed before the oncoming scourge. This judgment, however, is... read more
