以賽亞書 32:16-20 CUNPTS

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Isaiah 32:9-20

In these verses we have God rising up to judgment against the vile persons, to punish them for their villainy; but at length returning in mercy to the liberal, to reward them for their liberality. I. When there was so great a corruption of manners, and so much provocation given to the holy God, bad times might well be expected, and here is a warning given of such times coming. The alarm is sounded to the women that were at ease (Isa. 32:9) and the careless daughters, to feed whose pride,... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 32:16

Then judgment shall dwell in the wilderness ,.... In the desert part of the world, inhabited by Pagans, Papists, and Mahometans; where the Scriptures, the rule of judgment, and where the Gospel, sometimes called the judgment of the Lord, Isaiah 51:4 had no place, now they shall have one, and an abiding one; and men of judgment in spiritual and evangelical things, and such as do justice and judgment, shall dwell there: and righteousness remain in the fruitful field ; both the doctrine... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 32:17

And the work of righteousness shall be peace ,.... Not works of righteousness done by men, no, not by the best of men; for though peace may be had and enjoyed in doing them, yet it does not arise and flow from thence, because there is no justification by them, and salvation through them, without which there can be no true solid peace; nor the work of righteousness in men, which is their sanctification, and is indeed the work of God, and follows upon the pouring forth of his Spirit, and... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 32:18

And my people shall dwell in a peaceable habitation ,.... Jews and Gentiles, and all the saints, shall dwell in peace and love one with another, and shall be free from all the outrages and persecutions of the enemy; which, when these happy times of the pouring forth of the Spirit and of the spiritual reign of Christ come, will be no more: and in sure dwellings ; where they may dwell safely and confidently, secure from all enemies, in no fear of them, and free from all hurt and danger by... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 32:19

When it shall hail, coming down on the forest ,.... The people of God will be peaceable and quiet, safe and secure, when the judgments of God, signified by a "hail" storm, shall come upon antichrist, and the antichristian states, intended by the "forest", both for their numbers, and for their barrenness and unfruitfulness; see Revelation 16:21 and as so it sometimes is, by the disposition of divine Providence, that a storm of hail falls not upon fields and gardens, and the fruits of the... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 32:20

Blessed are ye that sow beside all waters ,.... In places well watered and moistened, and so fit to receive the seed sown, which grows up, and brings forth much fruit, and amply rewards the pains of the sower, who on that account is happy. These words are directed to the ministers of the Gospel in the latter day; the word is compared to seed, and the preachers of it to sowers of seed, who have a commission to preach the Gospel to every creature; and in the latter day, in the spiritual... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 32:17

The work of righteousness - Righteousness works and produces peace. The effect of righteousness - עבדת abodath , the culture. Righteousness, cultivated by peace, produces tranquillity of mind and permanent security. Reader, hast thou the principle? If so, dost thou cultivate it? If thou dost, thou hast peace of conscience, joy in the Holy Ghost, and a sure and certain hope of everlasting life. read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 32:19

The city shalt be low all a low place. "The city shall be laid level with the plain" - For ובשפלה ubashephelah , the Syriac reads וכשפלה ukeshephelah . The city - probably Nineveh or Babylon: but this verse is very obscure. Saltus; Assyriorum regnum: civitas; magnifica Assyriorum castra. Ephrem Syr. ire loc. For וברד ubarad , a MS. has וירד vaiyered ; and so conjectured Abp. Secker, referring to Zechariah 11:2 . read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 32:20

That sow beside all waters "Who sow your seed in every well-watered place" - Sir John Chardin's note on this place is: "This exactly answers the manner of planting rice; for they sow it upon the water, and before sowing, while the earth is covered with water, they cause the ground to be trodden by oxen, horses, and asses, who go mid-leg deep; and this is the way of preparing the ground for sowing. As they sow the rice on the water, they transplant it in the water. "Harmer's Observ. vol. 1 p.... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 32:9-20

Until the Spirit be poured out. How constantly does Scripture speak of every happy reformation as due to the "outpouring of the Spirit," or the sending or breathing of the Spirit on human-kind! Language none the less expressive because mysterious. Those epochs cannot be forecast: no meteorology can explain to us these movements "from on high." But they may be waited for and prepared for, without fear of disappointment. Again and again they had come to the prophet's heart; and from his heart... read more
