Isaías 32:12 NVIPT

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Isaiah 32:9-20

In these verses we have God rising up to judgment against the vile persons, to punish them for their villainy; but at length returning in mercy to the liberal, to reward them for their liberality. I. When there was so great a corruption of manners, and so much provocation given to the holy God, bad times might well be expected, and here is a warning given of such times coming. The alarm is sounded to the women that were at ease (Isa. 32:9) and the careless daughters, to feed whose pride,... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 32:12

They shall lament for the teats ,.... Either of the beasts of the field, that should be dried up, and give no milk, through the great drought that should be upon the land; or through the waste of the herbage by the enemy; or else of the women, their breasts and paps, which should afford no milk for their infants, through the famine that should press them sore, which would occasion great lamentation, both in mothers and children; though some think are to be understood of the fields, and are... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 32:12

They shall lament - for the pleasant fields "Mourn ye for the pleasant field" - The Septuagint, Syriac, and Vulgate read ספדו siphdu , mourn ye, imperative; twelve MSS., (five ancient), two editions, the Septuagint, Aquila, Symmachus, Theodotion, Syriac, and Vulgate, all read שדה sadeh , a field; not שדי shedey , breasts. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 32:9-12

SECTION IX . FURTHER DENUNCIATIONS OF ISRAEL , JOINED WITH PROMISES ( Isaiah 32:9-20 ). A REBUKE OF THE WOMEN . It might seem at first sight as if we had here a detached utterance of the prophet, accidentally conjoined with the preceding passage ( Isaiah 32:1-8 ). But Isaiah 32:15-18 furnish a link of connection between the two portions of the chapter, and make it probable that they were delivered at the same time. Mr. Cheyne supposes that the indifference of... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 32:9-12

The need of rousing women in critical times from a state of self-satisfaction and self-complacency. Women are less apprehensive than men, more inclined to suppose that the state of things to which they are accustomed will, as a matter el course, remain unchanged. They have, as a general rule, less historical knowledge than men, and less acquaintance with the condition of the world wherein they live. The self-complacency and unsuspiciousness of Marie Antoinette and the ladies of her court,... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 32:9-20

Until the Spirit be poured out. How constantly does Scripture speak of every happy reformation as due to the "outpouring of the Spirit," or the sending or breathing of the Spirit on human-kind! Language none the less expressive because mysterious. Those epochs cannot be forecast: no meteorology can explain to us these movements "from on high." But they may be waited for and prepared for, without fear of disappointment. Again and again they had come to the prophet's heart; and from his heart... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 32:12

They shall lament for the teats , etc.; rather, they shall beat upon the breasts for the pleasant fields , etc . (so the LXX ; the Vulgate, Jarchi, Gesenius, Ewald, Maurer, Knobel, Delitzsch, and Mr. Cheyne). Dr. Kay prefers the rendering of the Authorized Version, understanding by "the teats" such "dry breasts" as Hosea speaks of ( Hosea 9:14 ). But nothing has been said in this place of any such affliction. For the pleasant fields , etc.; i.e. for their loss (see verse 10). read more

Albert Barnes

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 32:12

They shall lament for the teats - Interpreters have been not a little perplexed by this expression. Lowth supposes it is to be taken in connection with the previous verse, and that it denotes that sackcloth was to be girded upon the breast as well as upon the loins. Others have supposed that it denotes to ‘smite upon the breasts,’ as a token of grief; others, that the word ‘breast’ here denotes children by a synecdoche, as having been nourished by the breast, and that the women here were called... read more

Joseph Benson

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 32:9-12

Isaiah 32:9-12. Rise up, &c. The prophet, to show the sinners and hypocrites in Zion, (Isaiah 33:14,) that they must not expect to receive blessings from God, such as he had just now predicted, while they remained in a state of impenitence, denounces against them the calamities which should come upon them; 1st, By the Assyrian, and then by the Babylonish destruction. Ye women that are at ease That indulge yourselves in idleness and luxury; shake off your carelessness and sloth,... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Isaiah 32:1-20

A kingdom of righteousness (32:1-20)Looking beyond the victory over the Assyrians, Isaiah sees the day when the people of God are under the rule of an ideal government. At the head of this government is a king whose chief officials share his characteristics of integrity, justice and mercy. Together they give their people protection and contentment (32:1-2).In such a kingdom the people as a whole reflect in their lives the qualities of their rulers. They have a desire to know more of God and his... read more
