以賽亞書 26:8 CUNPTS

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Isaiah 26:5-11

Here the prophet further encourages us to trust in the Lord for ever, and to continue waiting on him; for, I. He will make humble souls that trust in him to triumph over their proud enemies, Isa. 26:5, 6. Those that exalt themselves shall be abased: For he brings down those that dwell on high; and wherein they deal proudly he is, and will be, above them. Even the lofty city Babylon itself, or Nineveh, he lays it low, Isa. 25:12. He can do it, be it ever so well fortified. He has often done it.... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 26:8

Yea, in the way of thy judgments, O Lord, have we waited for thee ,.... Meaning by "judgments" either the ministration of the word and ordinances, called statutes and judgments, Psalm 147:19 an attendance on which is the right way of waiting upon God, and where it may be expected he will be found and manifest himself, and favour with his gracious presence; or else the corrections and chastisements, which are done in wisdom and with judgment, in measure and in mercy, and in a fatherly way,... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 26:1-13

The vision of future glory. It seems best to take this as the picture of an ideal spiritual state. I. THE IMPREGNABLE CITY . Its walls and outworks are "salvation." A great word—negatively hinting deliverance from the enemy and the oppressor; positively including all the contents of sacred peace, prosperity, and happiness. But salvation is nothing without a Savior; it is the loving presence of Jehovah who girds about Jerusalem as a wall. In Zechariah 2:9 he is spoken of as a... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 26:1-18

A SONG OF THE REDEEMED IN MOUNT ZION . The prophet, having (in Isaiah 25:1-12 .) poured forth his own thankfulness to God for the promise of the Church's final redemption and triumph, proceeds now to represent the Church itself in the glorified state as singing praise to God for the same. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 26:1-18

Thanksgiving the employment of the saints in bliss. The prophet, in this sublime passage of his prophecy, carries us with him within the veil, and reveals to us the very words, or, at the least, the general tone and tenor of utterances, which the saints make when they have passed from earth to heaven, and stand in the very presence of God. The words are, as we should have expected, mainly words of praise and thanksgiving. The saints praise God— I. FOR THE BLESSINGS OF THEIR ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 26:5-8

(latter half) The righteousness of God's rule. I. ITS APPARENT ABSENCE . We still find on the earth "them that dwell on high"—the arrogant, the presumptuous, the oppressor; there is to be seen" the lofty city," exalted in its pride of power, dealing its blows upon the weak and suffering, fearing not God nor regarding the rights of men. In every age, beneath every sky, these men and these cities have been known. To those who have been humiliated and ill treated, God has seemed... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 26:8

Yea, in the way of thy judgments … have we waited for thee ; rather, we waited . During the long years of our affliction and persecution in the world, we waited in the constant expectation that "thy judgments" would fall upon our persecutors. We were not impatient. We knew that thou wouldst visit us at the tilting time. The desire of our soul is to thy Name ; rather, the desire of our soul was to thy Name . During all the weary time of waiting, we longed for thee, and thy Name, or... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 26:8

Attitude in times of judgment. "In the way of thy judgments, O Lord, have we waited for thee." The connections of this chapter need sonic careful attention. The prophet, in the twelve preceding chapters, has given visions of the judgments that were ready to fall on the nations surrounding Israel—judgments in which Israel itself must share, since Israel had shared in the idolatries and the moral evils which had called those judgments forth. To most of the nations Divine judgments would prove... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 26:8-9

A thirst for God. "The desire of our soul is to thy Name … with my soul have I desired thee." The primary reference here is to the hope of troubled hearts for Divine deliverance; but the words of the text are suggestive of the general truths— I. THAT MAN IS CONSTITUTED TO CRAVE AFTER GOD . We have many indications of this truth. We find it in the facts that: 1. The noblest spirits among cultivated peoples find their chief joy in communion with him. 2. The... read more
