Isaiah 26:19-21 - Exposition

THE PROPHET 'S COMMENT ON THE SONG OF THE JUST . Having concluded his " song of the just" in a minor key with a confession of human weakness, the prophet proceeds to cheer and encourage his disciples by a clear and positive declaration of the doctrine of the resurrection: "Thy dead, O Israel, shall live." He then adds a recommendation for the present—a recommendation to privacy and retirement, until the judgments of God which he has predicted ( Isaiah 24:1-23 .) are shown forth upon the earth.
