Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Isaiah 33:13-24

Here is a preface that commands attention; and it is fit that all should attend, both near and afar off, to what God says and does (Isa. 33:13): Hear, you that are afar off, whether in place or time. Let distant regions and future ages hear what God has done. They do so; they will do so from the scripture, with as much assurance as those that were near, the neighbouring nations and those that lived at that time. But whoever hears what God has done, whether near or afar off, let them... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 33:13

Hear, ye that are far off, what I have done ,.... Not meaning the destruction of the Assyrian, as it is commonly interpreted; but the ruin of antichrist, the beast, and false prophet, and the burning of the city and whore of Rome; for, whoever will be the instruments, the work is the Lord's, and therefore it will be done: "she shall be utterly burnt with fire, for strong is the Lord who judgeth her", Revelation 18:8 and this shall be heard of far and near, who shall applaud the mighty... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 33:10-16

In the presence of the Holy One. The great question which, in a somewhat different form from that of the text, Balak proposed to Balaam ( Micah 6:6 ) is one that has always stirred the hearts of men everywhere and in all ages. We must find an answer to it if we are to enjoy any "rest unto our souls." I. THE THRICE - HOLY LORD OUR GOD . That which makes God's intervening purpose ( Isaiah 33:10 ) so serious to his creatures is that when he arises he will be found to be as... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 33:13

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 33:13-16

Living near to God. Jehovah has uprisen; he has revealed his might in the destruction of the Assyrian host; he calls through the prophet upon all the nations to acknowledge him. I. THE AWFULNESS OF GOD . We see it reflected from the horror-struck faces of the ungodly and the profane, He is indeed seen to be a "consuming Fire," having his "furnace in Jerusalem" ( Isaiah 31:1-9 :19). And all the immoral and the unprincipled, the heedless and the worldly, feel themselves as fuel... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 33:13-24

REFLECTIONS ON ASSYRIA 'S OVERTHROW VIEWED AS ACCOMPLISHED . The prophet's first thought is , how wonderfully the overthrow has manifested the might of God ( Isaiah 33:13 ). Next, how it must thrill with fear the hearts of the wicked among his people ( Isaiah 33:14 ). Thirdly, how the righteous are by it placed in security, and can look back with joy to their escape, and can with confidence look forward to a future of happiness and tranquil lily ( Isaiah 33:15-24 ).... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 33:13

Hear, ye that are far off - This is an address of Yahweh, indicating that the destruction of the Assyrian army would be so signal that it would be known to distant nations, and would constitute an admonition to them.Ye that are near - Ye Jews; or the nations immediately adjacent to Judea. The phrase ‘far and near,’ is equivalent to all. read more

Isaiah 33:10-13. Now will I rise In this extremity I will appear on the behalf of my people and land. Ye shall bring forth stubble Instead of solid corn. Your great hopes and designs, O ye Assyrians, shall be utterly disappointed. Your breath, as fire, shall devour you Your rage against my people shall bring ruin upon yourselves. Or, the arrogance, pride, wrath, and blasphemies which you vent against God shall be your destruction. Dr. Waterland renders the clause, “Your breath shall be... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Isaiah 33:1-24

Assyria defeated; Jerusalem blessed (33:1-24)In speaking again about the current situation, Isaiah announces God’s judgment on the Assyrians. They have plundered greedily and acted treacherously (33:1). Isaiah cries to God to save Jerusalem, so that the enemy armies will flee and the Jerusalemites can seize the goods left behind (2-4). Assured that God will act, the prophet praises him before the actual victory. God gives his people security and wisdom, and they respond with reverence and trust... read more
