Verse 14
14. They shall lift up their voice Here is another of Isaiah’s lightning-like transitions. The humble gleaned ones the remnant the returned escaped ones, of Isaiah 24:13 the representatives of all the delivered faithful ones of Israel the sifted and purified Church of Jehovah.
They In the original the pronoun is locatively emphatic, designating the righteous few as a special class.
They shall sing Shall celebrate by loud acclamation.
The majesty of the Lord In overpowering oppressors, and in bringing deliverance to the meek and true children of God “the remnant.”
They shall cry aloud This verb is what in Hebrew is called the preterite present. The people have shouted aloud, and do still, as a habit. The verbs preceding this are in the future present: They, from this time on, shall cry, as a habit also.
Cry aloud from the sea Which may mean for deliverances from the sea, or, more than the sea; that is, than at the sea, namely, the Red Sea, under Miriam:
see Exodus chap. 15; or, from the direction of the sea, that is, from the west. This last is to be preferred, as will be seen from the next verse.
