イザヤ書 54:13-16 JCB

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Isaiah 54:11-17

Very precious promises are here made to the church in her low condition, that God would not only continue his love to his people under their troubles as before, but that he would restore them to their former prosperity, nay, that he would raise them to greater prosperity than any they had yet enjoyed. In the foregoing chapter we had the humiliation and exaltation of Christ; here we have the humiliation and exaltation of the church; for, if we suffer with him, we shall reign with him. Observe,... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 54:13

And all thy children shall be taught of the Lord ,.... The children of the church, who are born in her, and nursed up at her side, and who are the children of God by adoption, which is made manifest by regeneration; these the Lord will take care of that they be "taught", even "all" of them, from the least to the greatest, Jeremiah 31:34 , they shall be taught of the Lord himself, by his ministers, word, and ordinances, as means, and by his Spirit, as the efficient; by whom they are taught... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 54:14

In righteousness shalt thou be established ,.... In the righteousness of Christ, from whence flows the peace before spoken of, and which is the stability of the church of Christ, and the security of it and its members from condemnation. The doctrine of justification by Christ's righteousness is, as Luther calls it, "articulus stantis vel cadentis ecclesiae", the article of the church, by which, as it is held fast or neglected, it stands or falls: or be established in exercising... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 54:15

Behold, they shall surely gather together, but not by me ,.... Not by the Lord, by his command or order to do his will, and execute his pleasure, which sometimes was the case, as in Sennacherib, Nebuchadnezzar, and others; but so it shall not be, when the enemies of Christ and his people gather together against them in the latter day; this will be by the means of three unclean spirits like frogs that will come out of the mouth of the dragon, beast, and false prophet; even spirits of devils,... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 54:16

Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire ,.... Into which he puts his iron to soften it, that he may beat it, and form it into what shape he pleases; which descriptive clause is added to show that it is a blacksmith that is intended, and to distinguish him from the carpenter and mason, of whom this word is also used, who deal, the one in wood, and the other in stone, and neither of which requires fire: now the Lord observes, to the comfort of his people, surrounded... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 54:15

Shall fall for thy sake "Shall come over to thy side" - For יפול yippol , twenty-eight MSS. (eight ancient) have יפל yipal , in its more common form. For the meaning of the word in this place, see Jeremiah 37:13 . read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 54:1-17

The future of the Church. "The person addressed is the ideal Zion, who is practically identical with the ideal or spiritual Israel." I. HER FRUITFULNESS . Nothing to an Israelitish mind can suggest more forcibly the idea of desolation and sorrow in a nation or spiritual community than the childless woman. Historically , the restored exiles may be referred to; physically and to some extent spiritually Israelites, but, while on a foreign soil, and unbaptized with the Spirit,... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 54:11-17

THE GLORY OF THE NEW JERUSALEM , AND THE HAPPINESS OF ITS INHABITANTS . Hitherto Israel has been addressed; now the direct object of address is Jerusalem. The eye of the prophet passes, however, with a glance, from the actual present to the far-distant future, and sees the Zion of God in her heavenly setting, all bedecked with precious stones, as she was seen by the exile of Patmos more than seven centuries later ( Revelation 21:16-21 ). After briefly describing the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 54:13

All thy children shall be taught of the Lord (comp. Isaiah 44:3 ; Jeremiah 31:33 , Jeremiah 31:34 ; Ezekiel 11:19 ; Joel 2:28 ; Acts 2:17 , Acts 2:18 , etc.). Christians are all of them "taught of God" ( John 6:45 ; 1 Thessalonians 4:9 ). The "anointing," which they have from the Holy Ghost, "teaches them, and is truth, and is no lie" ( 1 John 2:27 ), and causes them to "know all things" ( 1 John 2:20 ). And great shall be the peace of thy children . Messiah was to... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 54:13

The prize of life, and its pursuit. "All thy children shall be taught of the Lord; and great shall be the peace of thy children." We gather from this text— I. THE TRUE PRIZE OF LIFE . What is that thing which is most worth having, most worth the thought of our minds, the strenuous striving of our soul, the labour of our hands? Nations, communities, individual men, have given different replies. One has said case, another wealth, another pleasure, another power, another glory.... read more
