イザヤ書 5:2-4 JC

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Isaiah 5:1-17

a Disappointing Harvest Isaiah 5:1-17 In a picture of great beauty, Isaiah describes a vineyard situated on one of the sunny heights visible from Jerusalem. Every care which an experienced vine-dresser could devise had been expended on it, but in vain. The vine-dresser himself is introduced, demanding if more could have been done. When God selects a nation, a church, or an individual for high and holy work in the world and expends care and pains on the preparation of the instrument, and His... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 5:1-30

With the thought of judgment, and the necessity for it still in mind, the prophet utters his great denunciation. This falls into three parts. The first is a song of accusation. By the simple and familiar illustration of the rights of the proprietor in his vineyard, the prophet appeals to the listening people. The nature of the parable is such as to compel their assent to the rightness of the judgment indicated. The prophet immediately makes a blunt application of his song as he declares that... read more

James Nisbet

James Nisbet's Church Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 5:2

A DISAPPOINTING VINTAGE‘He looked that it should bring forth grapes, and it brought forth wild grapes.’ Isaiah 5:2 I. Consider the distinguishing features which, in God’s allegory, separate the grape from the wild grape.—(1) The good grape is not in a state of nature; the wild grape is. Either it has had no culture, or it has not responded to its culture. Therefore it is wild. The secret of its state lies in that one word ‘wild.’ (2) The wild grape does not grow or ripen into use. It springs,... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 5:1-7

God’s Fruitless Vineyard (Isaiah 5:1-7 ). In the first few verses we find a song, which was possibly sung by Isaiah at the celebration of the vintage harvest, as he gathered with men who were singing vintage songs at a wine festival, and sang a song of his own compilation. As Isaiah began his song it would at first appear to them to be an innocuous general love song, listened to appreciatively by all, and especially as it became sad, until it finally delivered to them a devastating message.... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 5:1-7

Isaiah 5:1-Judges : . The Parable of the Thankless Vineyard.— Isaiah probably at a vintage festival, when Judæ ans from the country ( Isaiah 5:3), as well as the inhabitants of Jerusalem, are present, comes forward as a minstrel. He sings this song of his friend’ s vineyard in light popular measure, making it attractive with beautiful plays upon words. He skilfully heightens the interest of his hearers, and by concealing the true nature of the vineyard he wins from them a mental... read more

Matthew Poole

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 5:2

Fenced it, that neither men nor beasts might spoil it. Gathered out the stones thereof; which otherwise would have marred the land; of which see 2 Kings 3:19. The sense is, He removed all hinderances, and gave them all the means of fruitfulness. Built a tower, for the residence of the keepers, that they might be obliged and encouraged to watch over it with more diligence. read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 5:4

What work is there belonging to the office of a master or keeper of the vineyard which I have neglected? How unworthy and inexcusable a crime is it, that you have not only been unfruitful in good works, but also filled with all the fruits of wickedness! read more

THE PARABLE OF THE VINEYARDIsaiah 5:1-7. Now will I sing, &c.I. The Privileges conferred on the Jewish nation (Isaiah 5:2-3). It would be vain and useless to attempt, as some have done, to find in the privileges of the Jews an exact counterpart to the various items here specified concerning this “vineyard.” For example, Jerome regards the fencing of the vineyard as symbolical of the protection of the Jews by the angels; the gathering out of the stones, the removal of the idols; the tower,... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Isaiah 5:2

DIVINE DISAPPOINTMENTSIsaiah 5:2. He looked that it should bring forth grapes, and it brought forth wild grapes.“I believe in God.” Which God? The God constructed for us by philosophers, who is impassive, throned in eternal calm, unmoved by the crimes or the virtues of men, all of which He has foreseen from eternal ages, and which cannot in any way affect Him at the time of their occurrence; a God who towers above men, majestic and unchangeable, like an Alpine peak, which is the same whether... read more
