Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 2:1-22

Isaiah 2:1 . The word that Isaiah saw. In these distressing times, when the Jewish church and state were shaken to the very centre, the Messiah spoke to the prophet, and showed him the new-testament church, built on a rock; of which it is said, God is in the midst of her, she shall not be moved. Psalms 46:5. Isaiah 2:2 . It shall come to pass in the last days. The days of the Messiah, as this phrase always designates. Hosea 3:5. Jeremiah 48:47. Joel 2:28. Ezekiel 38:8; Ezekiel 38:16.... read more

The Biblical Illustrator - Isaiah 2:2-4

Isaiah 2:2-4And it shall come to pass in the last daysIsaiah’s description of the last daysThe description of “the last days”--which in the Hebrew begins, “And it hath come to pass . . . the mountainof Jehovah’s house shall be established,” etc.is an instance of the use of the perfect tense to express the certain future. Its explanation seems to be that the structure of such a passage as that before us is imaginative, not logical--a picture, not a statement. The speaker completely projects... read more

And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the LORD's house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it.In the last days — In the times of the Messiah.

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 2:1-5

A MESSIANIC OUTLOOK, Isaiah 2:1-5. Here commences a prophetic section, which ends, perhaps, with chapter 4, though some are of the opinion that chapter 5, and others still that chapter 6, should be included. From the character of its contents, the message seems properly to include only chapters 2-4. Its date is unknown. Its early place in the collection of Isaiah’s prophecies is inexplicable, if it be not of King Uzziah’s time, and one of Isaiah’s earliest writings. read more

Daniel Whedon

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 2:2

2. In the last days Literally, in the end, or latter part, of the days; the entering upon the Messianic period, including even its onward, indefinite continuance. Such is the sense of this prophetic formula of “the last days.” The mountain of the Lord’s house Generally used to designate Mount Zion, though Moriah was the mount on which the temple stood. Purified Jerusalem, as a whole, was the type of the glorious Church of Christ. Shall be established That is, permanently settled. In... read more

Daniel Whedon

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 2:2-4

2-4. The section begins with a consoling message respecting a coming Messianic period. The language has some appearance of being a borrowed prophecy. Micah 4:1-4 has the same. As to which is the original author, or whether both quoted from an older prophet, commentators differ. It is generally agreed that Isaiah delivered these words in Uzziah’s time, consequently before 758 B.C. of our chronology. Micah began in the reign of Jotham, (Micah 1:1,) and Jeremiah, says Micah, (Jeremiah 26:18,)... read more
