以赛亚书 6:4 CUVS

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Isaiah 6:1-4

The vision which Isaiah saw when he was, as is said of Samuel, established to be a prophet of the Lord (1 Sam. 3:20), was intended, 1. To confirm his faith, that he might himself be abundantly satisfied of the truth of those things which should afterwards be made known to him. This God opened the communications of himself to him; but such visions needed not to be afterwards repeated upon every revelation. Thus God appeared at first as a God of glory to Abraham (Acts 7:2), and to Moses, Exod.... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 6:4

And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried ,.... That is, the posts of the door of the temple, as the Targum adds, where this vision was seen, as represented to the prophet. Some think this respects the earthquake in Uzziah's time, mentioned in Zechariah 14:5 and which they suppose was at the time he attempted to offer incense, and was smitten with leprosy; but, as Kimchi observes, this moving of the door posts was only in the vision of prophecy, and not in reality;... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 6:1-4

SECTION III . ISAIAH 'S VISION OF GOD UPON HIS THRONE ( Isaiah 6:1-13 .). THE VISION OF GOD SEEN BY ISAIAH . It is thought by some that this vision, and its sequel, constitute the original call of Isaiah to the prophetical office, and in order of time precede all the other contents of the book. But the position of the "vision" in the book is strongly against this view. Prophets who relate their original call naturally place it in the forefront of their... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 6:1-4

The vision of God. Sight is a thing of degrees. The healthy eye sees with infinite shades of distinctness and indistinctness, according to the amount of light which is vouchsafed it. The diseased eye has an equal variety of gradation in its powers of seeing, owing to the variations in its own condition. And it is with our spiritual as with our natural sight. The vision which men have of God varies infinitely with varying circumstances—from extreme dimness up to perfect distinctness. Amid... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 6:1-4

Symbolic impressions of the Divine holiness. This is the only vision recorded in Isaiah's prophecy. It did not come at the beginning of his labors, but as an inauguration to a higher degree of the prophetic office. From the tone of the latter part of the chapter, it is evident that he had found out the rebelliousness and obstinacy of the people, and perhaps had become, like Elijah, greatly distressed and discouraged; needing, therefore, such a reviving and encouragement as this vision was... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 6:1-13

The prophet's call and consecration. There are turning-points in life which give a meaning to the whole of its after-course. A light may be given to the 'mind at such moments by which it may have to steer its course for years. In moments of despondency the man of God will fall back on memory, and encourage himself by the recollection that, having once received and followed Divine guidance, that guidance will not desert him in the future. Such was this moment in the history of Isaiah. Life... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 6:2-4

A sermon from the seraphim. Taking the seraphim of this prophetic vision as symbols of the "highest creaturely intelligences," we gather from the text— I. THAT THE LOWLIEST REVERENCE BECOMES THE HIGHEST CREATED BEINGS . "With twain [of his wings] he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feel." Of the six wings each seraph possessed , four were used to indicate their sense of unworthiness in the near presence of God; two only were in readiness for active... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 6:4

The posts of the door moved ; rather, the bases of the thresholds shook (compare Revised Version). The shout of the seraphs shook the very foundations on which the thresholds of the gates of heaven rested—a testimony to the energy with which it was uttered. At the voice of him that cried ; i.e. "at the voice of each and all." The house was filled with smoke. "Smoke" is sometimes the mere sign of the presence of God, as in Isaiah 4:5 ; but more often it indicates his presence in... read more

Albert Barnes

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 6:4

And the posts of the door - Margin, ‘Thresholds.’ There is some difficulty in the Hebrew here, but the meaning of the expression is sufficiently apparent. It means that there was a tremour, or concussion, as if by awe, or by the sound attending the cry. It is evidently a poetic expression.The house - The temple.Was filled with smoke - There is here, doubtless, a reference to “the cloud” that is so often mentioned in the Old Testament as the visible symbol of the Divinity; see the note at Isaiah... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 6:4

Isaiah 6:4. And the posts of the door moved Together with the door itself. Such violent motions were commonly tokens of God’s anger. And here, it seems, this concussion of the temple was intended to signify God’s displeasure against his people for their sins, and to be a token of its destruction, by the Babylonians first, and afterward by the Romans; and the house was filled with smoke Which elsewhere is a token of God’s presence and acceptance, but here, of his anger; and may be... read more
