以賽亞書 65:8-9 CUNPTS

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Isaiah 65:8-10

This is expounded by St. Paul, Rom. 11:1-5, where, when, upon occasion of the rejection of the Jews, it is asked, Hath God then cast away his people? he answers, No; for at this time there is a remnant according to the election of grace. This prophecy has reference to that distinguished remnant. When that hypocritical nation is to be destroyed God will separate and secure to himself some from among them; some of the Jews shall be brought to embrace the Christian faith, shall be added to the... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 65:8

Thus saith the Lord, as the new wine is found in the cluster ,.... Now, lest the truly godly and gracious among these people should be distressed at such denunciations of wrath and destruction, it is suggested that these few, this remnant according to the election of grace, should be saved from the general ruin; as when men are about to cut down a vine, or pluck it up, or prune the unfruitful branches of it, a single cluster of grapes is observed upon it, in which new wine is supposed to be:... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 65:9

And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob ,.... Jerom says most understand this of Christ; and who indeed is called the seed of the woman, the seed of Abraham, the seed of David, and sprang from Jacob or Israel, and came out of the tribe of Judah; and may be fitly signified by the cluster, in which new wine and a blessing were, which "seed" here is explanative of; since the clusters of all divine perfections, of all the blessings of grace, and of all the promises of it, are in him: and... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 65:8

A blessing is in it - The Hebrews call all things which serve for food ברכה berachah , "a blessing." On this verse Kimchi remarks: "As the cluster of grapes contains, besides the juice, the bark, and the kernels, so the Israelites have, besides the just, sinners among them. Now as the cluster must not be destroyed because there is a blessing, a nutritive part in it; so Israel shall not be destroyed, because there are righteous persons in it. But as the bark and kernels are thrown away,... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 65:9

An inheritor of my mountains "An inheritor of my mountain" - הרי hari , in the singular number; so the Septuagint and Syriac; that is, of Mount Sion. See Isaiah 65:11 ; and Isaiah 56:7 , to which Sion, the pronoun feminine singular, added to the verb in the next line, refers; ירשוה yereshuah , "shall inherit her." - L. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 65:1-10

Threatenings and promises. Both, as it would appear, addressed to the chosen people, though many, including St. Paul, apply the earlier part of the passage to the conversion of the Gentiles. There is a polytheistic party, and a party of true believers in the nation. I. GOD BEFOREHAND WITH MEN . He "allows himself to be consulted;" he "offers answers," or "is heard" by those who came not to consult him. He was "at hand to those who did not seek him." To a nation that did not... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 65:8

As the new wine is found in the cluster ; rather, as when new wine is found in a grape-bunch ; i.e. as when even a single cluster of grapes is spied on a vine-stem, the vine-pruners say one to another, "Destroy not that stem, but spare it," so will God refrain from destroying those stocks in his vineyard, which give even a small promise of bearing good fruit. Destroy it not . The words are thought to be those of a well-known vintage-song, which is perhaps alluded to in the heading ( ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 65:8-10

SALVATION PROMISED TO A REMNANT . In Isaiah, and especially in the "Book of Consolation" (Isaiah 40-66.), promises are almost always intermingled with threatenings. The threats extend to the bulk of the nation; the promises are limited to "a remnant," since a remnant only could be brought to "seek" and serve God (verse 10). Here the announcement that a remnant would be spared is introduced by a simile from men's treatment of their own vineyards (verse 8). read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 65:8-10

Where sin abounds, grace yet more abounds. The portrait of Israel in Isaiah 65:2-7 is painted in such dark colours as to suggest that it must almost necessarily be followed by the absolute renunciation of the whole nation. A people " rebellious ," "walking in the way that is not good," "provoking God to anger continually," given over to a sensualistic idolatry, and yet proud, piquing itself upon its elevated religious position as a participant in certain heathen mysteries ( Isaiah... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 65:9

A seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah . Scarcely, "the people of the two captivities" (Delitzsch), though no doubt many Israelites of the ten tribes did return with Zerubbabel ( 1 Chronicles 9:3 ; Ezra 2:2 , Ezra 2:70 ; Ezra 3:1 ; Ezra 6:17 ; Ezra 8:35 , etc.). Rather, a mere pleonasm, as in Isaiah 9:8 ; Isaiah 10:21 , Isaiah 10:22 ; Isaiah 27:6 ; Isaiah 29:23 ; Isaiah 40:27 ; Isaiah 41:8 , etc. (see the comment on Isaiah 40:27 ). An inheritor of my mountains ... read more
