Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Isaiah 14:20

THE SEED OF EVILDOERSIsaiah 14:20. The seed of evildoers shall never be renowned.I. This is the verdict of the Scriptures. They abound in evidence that confirms it. Whatever may be the resources of wicked men, true glory does not lie in their path, and nought they can do will avail to secure honourable memory for their wickedness. On the contrary, their name and deeds will be attended with disaster and covered with shame. And this in spite—1. Of the wealth which may be connected with evil-doing... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Isaiah 14:32

A MEMORABLE ANSWERIsaiah 14:32. What shall one answer? &c.Translators and interpreters differ as to whether the answer in this verse was intended to be given by or to the messengers of the nations; as to the nations whose messengers are here spoken of; and as to the time when they came on their errand.

Sermon Bible Commentary - Isaiah 14:32

Isaiah 14:32 "The Lord hath founded Zion;" this is the guarantee of His love and her stability.

Charles Simeon's Horae Homileticae - Isaiah 14:27
