Isaiah 27

Destruction of the enemies of the Church, Isaiah 27:1 . God's care of his vineyard, Isaiah 27:2-11 . Prosperity of the descendants of Abraham in the latter days, Isaiah 27:12 , Isaiah 27:13 .

The subject of this chapter seems to be the nature, the measure, and the design of God's dealings with his people.

1. His judgments inflicted on their great and powerful enemies, Isaiah 27:1 .

His constant care and protection of his favorite vineyard, in the form of a dialogue, Isaiah 27:2 .

The moderation and lenity with which the severity of his judgments have been tempered, Isaiah 27:7 .

The end and design of them, to recover them from idolatry, Isaiah 27:9 . And,

The recalling of them, on their repentance, from their several dispersions, Isaiah 27:12 .

The first verse seems connected with the two last verses of the preceding chapter. - L.
