THE CHIEF INGREDIENTS OF REDEMPTIONIsaiah 43:1-81 But now thus saith the Lord that created thee, O Jacob,And he that formed thee, O Israel,Fear not: for I have redeemed thee,I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine.2 When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee;And through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee:When thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Isaiah 43:1-13

Jehovah’s Witnesses Isaiah 43:1-13 The magnificent conception of Isaiah 43:1-28 underlies this. We have still the convocation of mankind, summoned to decide whether Jehovah or some idol god shall be recognized as the supreme deity. In the arena are rows of helpless images rich in paint and tinsel, but mute and helpless, Isaiah 43:8-9 . Jehovah, to vindicate His claims, calls into the witness box His Chosen People, that they may tell what they have known, tasted, and handled, of the Word of... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 43:1-28

Following the manifesto, we have in the next three chapters a series of messages of Jehovah. The first declares His perpetual purpose for His people. His constant attitude of love is affirmed in promises which gain their force from the fact that they glance back at past deliverances. Passing through waters, and through rivers, walking through fire, they are to be safe, for they have been safe in such conditions. Then deliverance is definitely promised, in which the north must give up, and the... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 43:1-7

God Has Created and Redeemed a People for Himself Whom He Will Love And Protect (Isaiah 43:1-7 ). Isaiah 43:1 ‘But now thus says Yahweh who created you, O Jacob, And he who formed you, O Israel, Do not be afraid for I have redeemed you, I have called you by your name, you are mine.’ Suddenly again prospects change, for God’s purposes are sure. Yahweh is the creator of Jacob, and the One Who formed and lovingly shaped Israel. It was He Who called Abraham and brought them forth from him, as a... read more

Isaiah 43:1-Judges : . Having Chastised, Yahweh will Redeem His People.— Since Yahweh has sent Israel into exile, He can bring her back. He bids her be of good courage.

The sons of Israel shall be gathered from their dispersion. Isaiah 43:1 b. The verbs are futures. Isaiah 43:2 . Read, “ and rivers shall not.” Isaiah 43:3 . Seba: not... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 43:3

I gave Egypt for thy ransom: this was fulfilled either, 1. When God smote the Egyptians, both first-born and others, in Egypt, and drowned Pharaoh and his host in the Red Sea, for the safety and benefit of his people; or, 2. When the king of Assyria, either Sennacherib, as many think, or rather Esar-haddon, who designed to revenge his father’s disgrace and loss before Jerusalem upon the Jews, but was diverted and directed by God to employ his forces against Egypt, and Ethiopia, and Seba, as it... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Isaiah 43:1-3

CHEERING WORDS FOR THE AFFLICTEDIsaiah 43:1-3. But now thus saith the Lord that created thee, &c.These cheering words were addressed by God to His peculiar people the Jews; but He has a peculiar people now, and all who partake of their faith and love may consider this Scripture as written for the purpose of imparting comfort and strength to their troubled hearts. It suggests four subjects for consideration: the afflictions to which the people of God are liable; the exhortation addressed to... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Isaiah 43:1-3

Isaiah 43:1-3 In this text we have I. A charge given "Fear not." A righteous, godly fear the believer may have; but the cowardice of the world, which is loud to boast, and slow to act, and quick to doubt which is prone to distrust even the Almighty and disbelieve the All-true this he must never know. It becomes neither the dignity of his calling nor the faithfulness of his God. II. A reason assigned "Thou art Mine." These words were spoken to Israel after the flesh, and to them they still... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Isaiah 43:2

Isaiah 43:2 (with Daniel 3:0 ) The text contains I. A pre-intimation of trouble. Although we have not in it a distinct assertion or prediction of particular trials, yet it is most clearly and strongly implied that the chosen people would have to go through them. God never deceives us. He never foresees one thing for us and tells us to expect another. He meets us, so to speak, in plainness and candour, and He says, My ways are ways of ultimate happiness, but not of proximate. Tribulation is... read more
