Isaiah 35:4

Isa 35:4 Say to them [that are] of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come [with] vengeance, [even] God [with] a recompence; he will come and save you.

Ver. 4. Say to them that are of a fearful heart, ] Inconsideratis; to them that consider not the promises, but "forget the consolations," παρακλησις , Heb 12:5 so poring upon their sins, that they see not their Saviour.

Behold, your God will come with vengeance. ] He will tread Satan under your feet shortly. Rom 16:20

Even your God with a recompense. ] Diabolo par pari retribuet Christus, saith Jerome: Christ will be even with the devil. He had got one of Christ’s disciples - Judas; and, to cry quittance, Christ got one of his - Paul. Cyprian was wont thus to comfort his hearers, Veniet Antichristus, sed superveniet Christus, Antichrist will come, but Christ will not be long behind him.
