Isaiah 27:12-13 - Exposition

JUDAH PROMISED RESTORATION . The general practice of Isaiah is to append to gloomy prophecies words of encouragement He does this even when heathen nations are denounced ( Isaiah 18:7 ; Isaiah 19:18-25 ; Isaiah 23:17 , Isaiah 23:18 ); and still more when he is predicting judgments upon Israel ( Isaiah 2:2-4 ; Isaiah 6:13 ; Isaiah 10:20-34 ; Isaiah 24:23 ; Isaiah 29:18-24 , etc.). The encouragement in this place is a promise of return after dispersion, and of re-establishment on the "holy mount at Jerusalem" (verse 19).
