Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Isaiah 43:22-28

This charge (and a high charge it is which is here exhibited against Jacob and Israel, God's professing people) comes in here, 1. To clear God's justice in bringing them into captivity, and to vindicate that. Were they not in covenant with him? Had they not his sanctuary among them? Why then did the Lord deal thus with his land? Deut. 29:24. Here is a good reason given: they had neglected God and had cast him off, and therefore he justly rejected them and gave them to the curse (Isa. 43:28);... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 43:27

Thy first father hath sinned ,.... Either Adam, as Kimchi, in whom all have sinned, and from whom all derive a sinful and corrupt nature; or Abraham, as Jarchi, the father of the Jewish nation, of whom they boasted, and in whom they trusted, as being of his seed, and through whose merits and worthiness they expected great things; yet he was but a sinful man, though a good man, and a great believer; of whose infirmity and frailty many instances are on record. Some have thought Terah the... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 43:28

Therefore I have profaned the princes of the sanctuary ,.... Or will do it; the past tense for the future, common in prophetic writings; these are not Moses and Aaron, or the kings, but the priests of the temple, who had the care and government of things there, and therefore called "princes"; these, when this prophecy was fulfilled, were treated as common persons, and divested of their office, and laid aside; their priesthood and the honour of it were taken from them; sacrifices were... read more

Thy first father hath sinned - On this Kimchi speaks well: "How can ye say that ye have not sinned, seeing your first father, Adam, sinned; and man hath sin impressed on him through natural generation?" read more

I have profaned the princes of the sanctuary "Thy princes have profaned my sanctuary" - Instead of שרי ואחלל vaachallel sarey , read שריך ויחללו vayechalelu sareycha .

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 43:22-28

A REPROACH ADDRESSED TO CAPTIVE ISRAEL FOR ITS PAST OMISSIONS AND SINS . The thought of Israel in the future, redeemed, restored, and "telling out God's praise" ( Isaiah 43:21 ), raises naturally the con-trusted thought of Israel in the present and the past, disobedient, full of shortcomings ( Isaiah 43:22-24 ), too often guilty of overt acts of sin ( Isaiah 43:24-28 ). While reproaching his people, and reminding them that the exile is the wellmented punishment of... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 43:22-28

The folly of self-justification before God. Self-justification, addressed by man to God, is doubly foolish— I. AS HAVING NO BASIS IN TRUTH , AND THEREFORE EASILY CONFUTED . There is no fact more certain, whether we accept the statements of Scripture as authoritative, or pin our faith on our own observation and experience, than that "all have sinned and come short of the glory of God" ( Romans 3:23 ). Each man is conscious to himself of sin, and no one claims... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 43:22-28

Memories of exile. I. THE FAITHLESSNESS OF THE PEOPLE . They have forgotten the covenant of their God. They have neglected one of its first duties—prayer, which marks dependence; or they had prayed to other gods; or their prayers had been merely ritual and formal. And this was the less excusable as the burden of sacrifices had not laid upon them during the exile. II. THE MINDFUL MERCY OF JEHOVAH . He promises to blot out their sins; and this simply for his own sake. ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 43:27

Thy first father hath sinned ; rather, thy first father sinned ; that is, "Thou hast no merits of thy own. Even thy first father, Abraham, sinned ( Genesis 12:13 , Genesis 12:18 ; Genesis 17:17 ; Genesis 20:2 ); and thy teachers have transgressed. Thy very priests and prophets have been full of imperfections—have often sinned against me. Much more hast thou, my people generally, committed grievous offences. Thou must therefore throw thyself on my mercy." read more

Spence, H. D. M., etc.

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 43:28

Therefore I have profaned the princes of the sanctuary . The "princes of the sanctuary" (literally, "princes of holiness") are the principal members of the priesthood, who were carried into captivity with the rest of the people ( 2 Kings 25:18 ), and deprived of their functions, as a part of the punishment due to Israel for its sins. Israel itself was at the same time given to the curse of a severe bondage and to the reproaches of the neighboring nation. read more
