Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Isaiah 57:13-16

Here, I. God shows how insufficient idols and creatures were to relieve and succour those that worshipped them and confided in them (Isa. 57:13): ?When thou criest in thy distress and anguish, lamentest thy misery and callest for help, let thy companies deliver thee, thy idol-gods which thou hast heaped to thyself companies of, the troops of the confederate forces which thou hast relied so much upon, let them deliver thee if they can; expect no other relief than what they can give.? Thus God... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 57:13

When thou criest, let thy companies deliver thee ,.... From distress and impending ruin, if they can; meaning not the allies and auxiliaries of the Jews, the Egyptians and Assyrians, they sent to for help, as Kimchi, and others; rather, as Jarchi, their idols and graven images they worshipped, angels and saints departed, the Papists pray unto; let them now, in the time of Rome's ruin, renew their addresses to them for help and deliverance, if they can give it: or, "thy gathered ones" F26 ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 57:3-14

ISRAEL SEVERELY REBUKED FOR IDOLATRY . Though Hezekiah had made a great reformation of religion when he ascended the throne( 2 Kings 18:4 ; 2 Chronicles 29:3-19 ), and had done his best to put down idolatry, yet it was still dear to large numbers among the people, and was easily revived by Manasseh in the earlier portion of his reign ( 2 Chronicles 33:2-9 ). Isaiah now rebukes various kinds of idolatrous practices, and shows the vanity of them. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 57:12-13

The fate of folly and the reward of wisdom. The Divine One whom Israel has so grievously wronged ( Isaiah 57:4-9 ) intimates ( Isaiah 57:12 ) that he will make known to his people the results of their apostasy from him; he will tell them "how unprofitable are their works," how suicidal is their policy; he will tell them also how great is the reward of the wise—of those who abide in his service. I. THE BITTER FATE OF THE UNGODLY . Departing from God, they have no resort... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 57:13

When thou criest, let thy companies deliver thee . Then, when she thus cries, let her mixture of gods ( Isaiah 57:8 ), if they can, deliver her; they will fail utterly to do so. The wind —or rather, a breath— shall carry them all away; vanity shall take them . The idol gods shall be shown to be wholly futile, unable to save, incapable of rendering any the slightest assistance. But he that putteth his trust in me shall possess the land . If, however, at that dread hour, there be... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 57:13

When thou criest - That is, when you are in trouble, and feel your need of help.Let thy companies deliver thee - The word used here (קבוּץ qibûts) means, properly, “a gathering; a throng; a collection.” Here it refers either to the throngs of the idols which they had collected. and on which they relied; or to the collection of foreigners which they had summoned to their assistance. The idea is, that if people trust to other objects for aid than the arm of God, they will be left in the day of... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 57:11-14

Isaiah 57:11-14. Of whom hast thou been afraid, &c. And what, or who are they, the fear of whom drives thee to these wicked and desperate practices? Are they not weak and mortal creatures, such as wholly depend upon me, and can do nothing without me? The fear of my displeasure ought, in all reason, to outweigh all thy other fears and apprehensions, and deter thee from breaking that covenant whereby thou art engaged to me. That thou hast lied That thou hast dealt thus perfidiously with... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Isaiah 57:1-21

Corruption and idolatry (56:9-57:21)The Assyrian captivity of the northerners and the Babylonian captivity of the southerners did not include the whole populations. Those who were of no use to the conquerors were left behind, along with scattered country people who escaped the enemy. These and their descendants soon followed the old religious practices of the Canaanite people. They worshipped idols, offered human sacrifices to the god Molech, and practised fertility rites with religious... read more
