以賽亞書 30:10-11 RCUVTS

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Isaiah 30:8-17

Here, I. The preface is very awful. The prophet must not only preach this, but he must write it (Isa. 30:8), write it in a table, to be hung up and exposed to public view; he must carefully note it, not in loose papers which might be lost or torn, but in a book, to be preserved for posterity, in perpetuam rei memoriam?for a standing testimony against this wicked generation; let it remain not only to the next succeeding ages, but for ever and ever, while the world stands; and so it shall, for... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 30:10

Which say to the seers, See not ,.... The same with the prophets in the next clause, which explains this: and to the Prophets, prophesy not unto us right things ; things agreeable to the mind and will of God, and which ought to be done; not that they, in so many words, said this, but this was the language of their hearts and actions. The Targum is, "who say to the prophets, prophesy not, and to the teachers, teach us not the doctrine of the law:' speak unto us smooth things ; that... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 30:11

Get ye out of the way: turn aside out of the path ,.... These two expressions mean one and the same thing; either that the prophets would go out of their usual way of threatening ruin and destruction; or that they would go out of the way of the people, and not stand in it to hinder them pursuing their own lusts and pleasures; or that they would go out of the right way, as the Targum, which is God's way, and join with them; or, at least, connive at, and indulge them, in their ways: cause... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 30:8-17

A RENEWAL OF THREATENING . The denunciation of the Egyptian alliance had been made viva voce , in the courts of the temple or in some other place of public resort. As he ended, Isaiah received a Divine intimation that the prophecy was to be put on record, doubly, upon a tablet and in a book. At the same time, the " rebelliousness " of the people was further pointed out, and fresh threats (verses 13, 14, and 17) were uttered against them. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 30:8-18

A testimony forever. The prophet pauses. Perhaps he hears an inner voice bidding him to write down a few words, such as the last significant Rahab . As in Isaiah 8:1 , the inscription is to be on a large tablet, set up in a conspicuous place, so that he who runs may read. Then he is to inscribe the prophecy more fully on a scroll. Litera scripta manet . The oracle, the oral utterance, transferred to parchment, becomes a κτῆμα εἰς ἀεί , a "possession forever." The perpetuity... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 30:8-18

Aspects of sin. This severe denunciation by the prophet of the sins of the Jews may remind us of some of the darker and sadder aspects of sin itself. I. THE PERMANENCY OF ITS RECORD . Isaiah was to record the guilt of "the rebellious children" in a book, that it might be there inscribed " for the time to come forever and ever." And in the sacred volume there stand written, to be read for all time, the accusations which the Lord brought against Israel; the record of their... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 30:10

Which say , etc. Not, of course, directly, in so many words. But indirectly they let it be understood that this was what they wished. Compare the advice given to Micaiah by Ahab's messenger, who, no doubt, correctly interpreted the wishes of the monarch and his nobles ( 1 Kings 22:13 ). Seers … prophets . Not two classes of persons, but two names for the same class. The" parallelism" of Hebrew poetry leads to the constant employment of synonymous clauses. Right things ; i.e. the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 30:10-11

Smooth things wore acceptable to man than the truth. In connection with this subject there would seem to be three things to be specially set forth. I. THE FACT OF THE PREFERENCE . Man has no natural aversion to truth. On the contrary, truth is congenial to his nature and acceptable to his intellect. Scientific truth, historic truth, is readily received when offered to him, and, if not very eagerly desired or very carefully sought out, is at any rate, when put before him,... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 30:11

Cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us . "The Holy One of Israel" was one of Isaiah's most frequent names for the Almighty. He used it especially when rebuking Israel's unholiness ( Isaiah 1:4 ; Isaiah 5:24 , etc.). The irreligious Jews were weary of this constant iteration, and wished to hear no more concerning this "Holy One," whose very holiness was a reproach to them. read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 30:10

Which say to the seers - The prophets (see the note at Isaiah 1:1).See not - They desire not that they should communicate to them the will of Yahweh.Prophesy not unto us right things - It is not probable that they “openly” demanded of the prophets that they should declare falsehood and deceit, but their conduct was as if they had required that. The sense is, they bore with impatience the theatenings and commands of the true prophets; they were offended at their plainness and their reproofs of... read more
