Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Isaiah 43:14-21

To so low an ebb were the faith and hope of God's people in Babylon brought that there needed line upon line to assure them that they should be released out of their captivity; and therefore, that they might have strong consolation, the assurances of it are often repeated, and here very expressly and encouragingly. I. God here takes to himself such titles of his honour as were very encouraging to them. He is the Lord their Redeemer, not only he will redeem them, but will take it upon him as... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 43:19

Behold, I will do a new thing ,.... A wonderful and unheard of thing, and therefore introduced with a "behold", as a note of admiration; the same with the new thing created in the earth, Jeremiah 31:22 , the incarnation of the Son of God; who took flesh of a virgin, appeared in the likeness of sinful flesh, and was made sin and a curse for his people, in order to obtain eternal redemption for them; which blessing, though not newly thought of, resolved on, contrived, and agreed upon, that... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 43:20

The beast of the field shall honour me, the dragons, and the owls ,.... Which is not to be understood literally of these creatures, who as they had honoured the Lord, when Israel passed through the wilderness, so would again in their way praise the Lord, when they came through the deserts from Babylon, for giving them water to drink in such dry and thirsty places, to which there may be an allusion; but spiritually of the Gentiles, compared to those creatures for the savageness, fierceness,... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 43:21

This people have I formed for myself ,.... The Gentiles, compared to a desert and wilderness, wild and uncultivated, distinguished from Jacob and Israel in the next verse, and the same with the chosen people before mentioned; who being chosen of God, and redeemed by Christ, are formed anew by the Spirit of Christ, made new creatures, regenerated, and transformed by the renewing of their minds, and conformed to the image of Christ, and having him formed in their souls, and principles of grace... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 43:19

Behold, I will do a new thing - At Isaiah 43:16 , the prophet had referred to the deliverance from Egypt and the passage through the Red Sea; here he promises that the same power shall be employed in their redemption and return from the Babylonish captivity. This was to be a new prodigy. read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 43:20

The beast of the field shall honor me "The wild beast of the field shall glorify me" - The image is elegant and highly poetical. God will give such an abundant miraculous supply of water to his people traversing the dry desert in their return to their country, that even the wild beasts, the serpents, the ostriches, and other animals that haunt those arid regions, shall be sensible of the blessing, and shall break forth into thanksgiving and praises to him for the unusual refreshment which... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 43:14-21

A DECLARATION AGAINST BABYLON , AND A PROMISE OF ISRAEL 'S RESTORATION . Having wound up the preceding "controversy" with a reference to his own power to work great results ( Isaiah 43:13 ), Jehovah now brings forward two examples—the discomfiture of Babylon ( Isaiah 43:14 , Isaiah 43:15 ), and the recovery and restoration of Israel ( Isaiah 43:16-21 ), both of which he is about to accomplish. read more

Spence, H. D. M., etc.

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 43:16-21

Three deliverances. In the past, Israel had had one great and unparalleled deliverance, that, namely— I. FROM THE POWER OF EGYPT . With a "mighty hand and a stretched-out arm" God had saved them from the miserable fate of being bondservants, bound to task-work, and compelled to labour under the lash. He had effected their deliverance by a series of miracles, culminating in the death of the firstborn, and the passage of the Red Sea, whereby it might have been hoped that the... read more

Spence, H. D. M., etc.

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 43:19

Behold, I will do a new thing (comp. Isaiah 42:9 , with the comment). It is, of course, quite possible that the novelty is not merely in the circumstances of the deliverance, but extends to all its results, among which is the Messianic kingdom—verily, a "new thing" (see Jeremiah 31:22 ). Now it shall spring forth ; rather, already it is springing up (comp. Isaiah 42:9 ). Things, however, are more advanced (to the prophet's eye) than when that passage was written. Events are... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 43:20

The beast of the field shall honour me . The animal creation shall, participate in the benefits of the "new thing" introduced by the restoration of Israel, and in their dumb way shall show their gratitude. The dragons and the owls . The recent mention of the desert causes animals of the desert ( Isaiah 13:21 , Isaiah 13:22 ) to be taken as examples. (On the animals intended, see the comment on Isaiah 34:13 .) If even the beasts of the desert honoured God, much more would the rest of... read more
