Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 33:7

7. Notwithstanding the great occasion looked for in the choral strain above, there is occasion also for grief. Their valiant ones The lion-like heroes, messengers sent to Sennacherib or his officers (see 2 Kings 17:14) with the silver and the gold demanded as condition of peace, but which availed nothing with the truce-breaker. These deplore the state of things that would follow, namely, Jerusalem’s destruction, to all earthly view most probable. read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 33:8-9

8, 9. The highways lie waste In disregard of his covenant the enemy still would ravage the country, render impassable the usual highways, cut off travel, break up villages and cities, and show mercy to none. Such treachery called for the world’s detestation and Heaven’s speediest retribution; this is a sense in which the earth, or the land, mourneth; in which Lebanon, noble in its cedars and towering heights, blushes in very shame; in which Sharon, the Shephala, or flowery plain on... read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 33:10-12

10-12. This iniquity is now full. The day of judgment to Assyria has come. As though indifferently sitting still, Jehovah has looked on long enough, and says, Now will I rise… now… be exalted; now… lift up myself The thrice repeated “now” denotes earnest business. On hearing this the prophet knows what is to come, and cries out as if to the enemy, Ye… conceive chaff, ye… bring forth stubble Your vainglorious swell and threat amounts to utter nothing. Your furious, snorting menace is... read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 33:13-16

13-16. And then, as if this judgment were accomplished, the prophet turns to the sinners by whom himself, as counsellor to the pious king, has been so long baffled in Jerusalem. These he addresses as the near ones; those living to witness the power of the Almighty in breaking the Assyrian yoke. Hitherto they had scouted Isaiah’s theory of deliverance from such a source, and they sought aid from Egypt. The far-off peoples are also called to witness this almighty power in behalf of Israel.... read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 33:17

17. The good king, Hezekiah, hitherto so depressed by apparently inevitable destruction before him, puts on an aspect humble, yet cheerful and gladsome, and thine eyes all eyes in Jerusalem shall see him thus elevated to grander faith through Jehovah’s victory wrought for him and the people. The land that is very far off Possibly a typical view, this, of the future oppressed Messiah’s victory and of the glorious land of promise yet to be seen extended over all lands, all cleared of... read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 33:18-19

18, 19. Meditate terror So joyous may the people now be, that the dreadful past is a fact to be thought of ( meditated upon) as long since having transpired, and to be recalled by effort of memory. Thoughts recently so engrossing about the scribe, or manager of funds for the war about the receiver, or the weigher of the moneys or about him who counted, that is, examined the strength of the towers are now all vanished amid the present joy. Not see a fierce people… stammering tongue No... read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 33:20-22

20-22. But Zion in her victory and glory may be seen, and the command is to look upon her, now a quiet habitation, where religious worship may be resumed in peace. A tabernacle… not to be taken down The figure of the tent is applied a symbol of simple, holy, old patriarchal life well pitched against storms, and secure against marauders. There That is, in Jerusalem, the Lord is ever present, glorious in spiritual agency and results like to physical and civil affairs, to broad,... read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 33:23-24

23, 24. Thy tacklings are loosed By curious prophetic association again, the intuition of war galley and ship turns the mind back, as it were, to the wrecked Assyrian ship, which, with its broken ropes, (“tacklings,”) and loosened mast-base, can no more spread sail. But the Jews now have their opportunity. The heretofore plunderer is now the thoroughly plundered one. All the spoil of his ships the wreckers may seize. This is the view of most interpreters, but not of Drechsler or Delitzsch.... read more
