以賽亞書 16:13 RCUVTS

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Isaiah 16:6-14

Here we have, I. The sins with which Moab is charged, Isa. 16:6. The prophet seems to check himself for going about to give good counsel to the Moabites, concluding they would not take the advice he gave them. He told them their duty (whether they would hear or whether they would forbear), but despairs of working any good upon them; he would have healed them, but they would not be healed. Those that will not be counselled cannot be helped. Their sins were, 1. Pride. This is most insisted upon;... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 16:13

This is the word that the Lord hath spoken concerning Moab ,.... That is, this prophecy now delivered out is what comes from the Lord; it is the word of the Lord, and not of man, and so shall certainly come to pass; when this word was spoken follows: since that time ; from eternity, as some, and so refer it to the decree of God within himself; or from the time that Moab was in being, or a nation, as others; or from the time that Balak hired Balaam to curse Israel, so Jarchi; or rather... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 16:1-14

THE BURDEN OF MOAB ( CONTINUED ). This portion of the "burden" is divided into three sections. In section 1 (from Isaiah 16:1 to the end of Isaiah 16:5 ) an offer of mercy is made to Moab on certain conditions, viz. that she return to her allegiance to the house of David, and show kindness to fugitive Israelites. In section 2 ( Isaiah 16:6-12 ) she is supposed to have rejected this offer, and is threatened (as in Isaiah 15:1-9 .) with severe punishment. In section 3... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 16:7-14

Lament over Moab. I. MOAB 'S SELF - LAMENTATION . "Moab will wail for Moab; everything will wail." In her misery and distress, she reflects on her beauty. A fair land is like a fair maiden, and her desolation excites the like poignant self-pity. "I know not a greater grief," said Dante, "than to recall the happy time in the midst of distress." The picture of Moab ' s former happiness . The vineyard and all its gladdening associations represent the endearing charms of the land.... read more

This is the word , etc. The third and concluding section begins here. This prophecy, Isaiah says, is one, not now delivered for the first time, but existent previously. How long previously, he leaves quite vague. read more

Albert Barnes

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 16:13

This is the word - This is the substance of the “former” predictions respecting Moab. This has been the “general course” or sense of the prophecies respecting Moab, during all its history.Since that time - Formerly; from former times. There had been a course of predictions declaring in general that Moab should be destroyed, and the prophet says here that he had expressed their general sense; or that “his” predictions accorded with them all - for they all predicted the complete overthrow of... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 16:13-14

Isaiah 16:13-14. This is the word that the Lord hath spoken This prophecy, hitherto related; since that time Since the beginning of God’s revelation to me concerning Moab hitherto; or, rather, a good while ago, for so the Hebrew, מאז , meaz, signifies, Isaiah 44:8, and elsewhere. This judgment, says the prophet, was denounced against Moab in former times, particularly by Amos, (Amos 2:1,) and is now confirmed, and the particular time specified when it shall be accomplished. For now... read more

Donald C. Fleming

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Isaiah 16:1-14

Devastation in Moab (15:1-16:14)The place names mentioned in these two chapters indicate that the attack on Moab comes from the north, most likely from Assyria. The attack is swift and ruthless, and towns fall in a night. Wherever a person looks, there is mourning (15:1-4). Even Isaiah weeps as he sees the people fleeing pitifully, rushing along the streets, across the streams and over the fields that have been damaged by the invading armies. They take with them whatever precious possessions... read more

James Burton Coffman

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Isaiah 16:13

The obvious meaning here is that God's prophecies against Moab given in time past (either by Isaiah, or by others, or by both) are about to be fulfilled. "In three years precisely the glory of Moab shall be brought low, and only an insignificant remnant shall survive."[15] The way in which Isaiah distinguished between "three years exactly," and "about three years" is interesting. By specifying, "as the years of a hireling," he meant that, "The hired servant serves for the three years exactly.... read more

Thomas Coke

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 16:13-14

Isaiah 16:13-14. This is the word—since that time, &c.— This is the word which Jehovah spake concerning Moab long ago. Lowth. The prophet had described the future calamity of Moab; but, as the completion of the prophesies was often at a great distance, it happened that men neglected, or at least less regarded, those prophesies which they saw not fulfilled in their own time. That this might not happen in the present case, he adds, that this prophesy should be shortly fulfilled, nay, even... read more
