Isaías 25:5 NVT

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Isaiah 25:1-5

It is said in the close of the foregoing chapter that the Lord of hosts shall reign gloriously; now, in compliance with this, the prophet here speaks of the glorious majesty of his kingdom (Ps. 145:12), and gives him the glory of it; and, however this prophecy might have an accomplishment in the destruction of Babylon and the deliverance of the Jews out of their captivity there, it seems to look further, to the praises that should be offered up to God by the gospel church for Christ's... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 25:5

Thou shalt bring down the noise of strangers ,.... Such as are strangers to God and godliness, to Christ, his Gospel, and truths, to the Spirit and his operations of grace; the clamour and noise of such against true religion, and the professors of it, their persecuting rage and fury, this the Lord in his own time will bring down, and cause to cease, and it shall be heard no more: as the heat in a dry place : which parches the earth, and burns and dries up the grass and fruits of it; to... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 25:5

Of strangers "Of the proud" - The same mistake here as in Isaiah 25:2 ; (note): see the note there. Here זדים zedim , the proud, is parallel to עריצים aritsim , the formidable: as in Psalm 54:5 , and Psalm 86:14 . The heat with the shadow of a cloud "As the heat by a thick cloud" - For חרב choreb , the Syriac, Chaldee, Vulgate, and two MSS. read כחרב kechoreb , which is a repetition of the beginning of the foregoing parallel line; and the verse taken out of the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 25:1-5

Rejoicing in God. Such words as these could only come from an enlightened mind. They would have been impossible to a heathen sage. The gods of the nations were beings in whom no right-minded man could rejoice at all, and their character could not have been painted in these colors. But the God of Isaiah, our God, is One for whom "praise may be continually on the lips" of the wise and pure. Our souls can " delight themselves in God;" for— I. HIS ABIDING FAITHFULNESS . "His... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 25:1-8

Hymn of praise to Jehovah. I. THE PERSONAL APPROPRIATION OF GOD . This is one of the great marks of personal, spiritual religion. Other nations have known their gods as leaders in war, protectors of hearth and home; it was reserved for Israel and for Christianity to think of the High and Holy One as tenanting the heart and soul of the believer. Jehovah is not only "my father's God,"—this would be merely traditional religion; but "my God," "my Salvation,"—this is personal religion... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 25:1-12

ISAIAH 'S SONG OF PRAISE ON THE ESTABLISHMENT OF GOD 'S KINGDOM . AS in Isaiah 12:1-6 , after describing the first setting up of Christ's kingdom and the call of the Gentiles, the prophet broke out into song, through joy at the tidings he was commissioned to announce, so now, having proclaimed the final establishment of the same kingdom in the heavenly Zion, he is again carried away by the sense of exultant gladness into a fresh Lobgesang , which he utters in his... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 25:1-12

The place of thanksgiving in the religious life. It is generally agreed by Christians that the religious life embraces a considerable number of separate duties of a strictly religious character. Among these the first place is ordinarily assigned to prayer; the second to reading of the Scriptures; the third, perhaps, to meditation; and so forth. But it is not always, or indeed very often, that a distinct position, or a very prominent position, is assigned to praise and thanksgiving. Prayer is... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 25:5

Thou shalt bring down. The past foreshadows the future. What God had done in "bringing down" the enemies of his saints, he would do again and again. He could as easily bring to naught the clamorous uprising of heathen nations ( strangers ) against his people, as temper the sun's heat by the interposition of a thick cloud. The branch ; rather, the song (comp. Isaiah 24:16 ; Job 35:10 ; Psalms 95:2 ; Psalms 119:51 ). The exultant chant of triumph which the ungodly are sure to... read more

Albert Barnes

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 25:5

Thou shalt bring down the noise - The tumult; the sound which they make in entering into battle; or the note of triumph, and the sound of revelry. The phrase may refer either to their shout of exultation over their vanquished foes; or to the usual sound of revelry; or to the hum of business in a vast city.Of strangers - Of foreigners (see the note at Isaiah 25:2).As the heat in a dry place - The parallelism here requires that we should suppose the phrase ‘with the shadow of a cloud’ to be... read more

Joseph Benson

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 25:5

Isaiah 25:5. Thou shall bring down the wise of strangers The tumultuous noise, as the word properly signifies; the rage and furious attempts of those heathen nations that fought against God’s people. As the heat in a dry place With as much ease as thou dost allay the heat of a dry place, by the shadow of thy clouds, or by the rain which falls from black and shadowy clouds. Here again, as in Isaiah 25:2, instead of strangers, Bishop Lowth reads, the proud. The branch of the terrible... read more
