イザヤ書 62:11-12 JCB

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Isaiah 62:10-12

This, as many like passages before, refers to the deliverance of the Jews out of Babylon, and, under the type and figure of that, to the great redemption wrought out by Jesus Christ, and the proclaiming of gospel grace and liberty through him. 1. Way shall be made for this salvation; all difficulties shall be removed, and whatever might obstruct it shall be taken out of the way, Isa. 62:10. The gates of Babylon shall be thrown open, that they may with freedom go through them; the way from... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 62:11

Behold, the Lord hath proclaimed unto the end of the world ,.... This is not to be interpreted of the proclamation by Cyrus, giving liberty to the people of the Jews to return to their own land, for that did not reach to the end of the world; but of the proclamation of the Gospel, which, as when first published, the sound of it went into all the earth, and the words of it to the ends of the world, Romans 10:18 . So it will be in the latter day, when it shall be preached to all nations,... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 62:12

And they shall call them the holy people ,.... For whom the way is prepared, to whom the standard is lifted up, and the proclamation made, and who upon it are gathered in to Christ the Saviour, and to the church: these shall be called, by men that know them, have a spirit of discerning, and are capable of judging, "the holy people"; a people separated and set apart for God, for his service and glory; chosen to be a special people, above all the people of the earth; chosen through... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 62:11

Unto the end of the world - הארץ קצה אל el ketseh haarets - Instead of אל el , to, עד ad , Unto, is the reading of two of Kennicott's MSS.; and one of mine has מקצה mikketseh , "From the end of the earth." Behold, thy salvation cometh "Lo, thy Savior cometh" - So all the ancient Versions render the word ישעך yishech . Behold, his reward - See note on Isaiah 40:10 , Isaiah 40:11 . This reward he carries as it were in his hand. His work is before him - he... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 62:12

They shall call them - These characteristics seem to be put in their inverted order. - God will not forsake them. They shall be sought out. They shall be redeemed. And, Be in consequence a holy people. 1. When God calls, it is a proof that he has not forsaken. 2. When he seeks, it is a proof he is waiting to be gracious. 3. When the atonement is exhibited, all things are then ready. 4. And when that is received, holiness of heart and life is then to be kept continually in... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 62:1-12

FURTHER GRACIOUS PROMISES MADE TO ISRAEL BY " THE SERVANT ." Some regard the speaker in this chapter as Jehovah; some as the prophet, or the prophetical order; some as "the Servant." The last supposition appears to us the simplest and the best. The close connection with the preceding chapter is evident. If that then be, in the main, "a soliloquy of the Servant," this should he a continuation of the soliloquy. Israel is promised "righteousness," "glory," "a new name," a... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 62:2-12

The teaching of Scripture with respect to names. Names are not spoken of in the Scriptures as unimportant, but as of a very high importance. I. A SPECIAL VALUE IS SET ON THE NAMES OF GOD . The names of God are significant, and set forth his nature. "El" is "the Great;" "Shaddai," "the Strong;" "Jehovah," "the Alone-existent." God selected this last name as that by which he would be especially known to the Jews ( Exodus 3:14 ), and it became a sort of proper name with... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 62:10-12

The homeward call. "The prophet returns to the exiles in Babylon, and urges them not to delay their homeward march." It is the same call which resounded in the two former divisions of the prophecy ( Isaiah 48:20 ; Isaiah 52:11 ). I. THE WAY CLEARED . The gates of Babylon are to be thrown open. Invisible servants of Jehovah are to prepare the way ( Isaiah 40:3 ; Isaiah 57:14 ). A great highway (as in Isaiah 11:16 ) is seen stretching homeward, from which the party of... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 62:10-12

God's summons to the enslaved. Taking the language of the tenth verse as an energetic address to the captive people of God to "go through" the gates of Babylon, and make their way with all diligence to Zion, the home of freedom and sacred joy, we have— I. A DIVINE SUMMONS TO THE ENSLAVED . To the individual soul , that has been brought into some spiritual bondage, perhaps under the tyranny of some enslaving habit; to the Christian Church , which has allowed itself to... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 62:11

Meanwhile Jehovah, by his angels or his prophets, causes it to be made known to the ends of the earth that the redemption of Israel draws nigh, and that Zion's" salvation" approaches . His reward is with him , etc. The words are repeated from Isaiah 40:10 . Here they are certainly said of Israel. They go forth from Babylon, having their reward with them— i.e. liberty, honour, riches to some extent ( Ezra 1:4-11 ), and their work, or rather their recompense— the possession of... read more
