Isaiah 13 Commentary http://www.lovingscripture.com I will punish the world for its evil, the wicked for their sins. I will put an end to the arrogance of the haughty and will humble the pride of the ruthless. Verse 11. This is our starting point. The Assyrian empire rose but was quickly destroyed by the LORD because of her pride.ContinueContinue reading “Isaiah 13 Commentary”

Isaiah 12 Commentary http://www.lovingscripture.com The vision of chapter 11 is the reason for the praise song in this chapter. The LORD Jesus Christ is the history-long blessing of the LORD to humanity. Isaiah has a simple format. He states the problem or describes the sorry state of humanity before announcing a series of God’s judgments.ContinueContinue reading “Isaiah 12 Commentary”

Isaiah 11 Commentary http://www.lovingscripture.com A good teacher uses many examples to explain one point. Isaiah uses countless symbols and images, not to explain a point, but to explain an indefinite number of lines of prophecies that neatly converge on the LORD Jesus Christ. Probably, no other book has this amount of visuals and teaching aids.ContinueContinue reading “Isaiah 11 Commentary”

Isaiah 10 Commentary http://www.lovingscripture.com Isaiah speaks to his own environment and time. The laws are unjust and oppressive. We are looking at the systems designed to disadvantage the poor and rob the fatherless. The LORD God is not happy. A day of disaster is coming to the nations. Then an important question comes: where willContinueContinue reading “Isaiah 10 Commentary”

Isaiah 9 Commentary http://www.lovingscripture.com Chapter 9 is very interesting. The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali; Galilee of the nations; land by Way to the sea and land beyond the Jordan. The scripture is describing territories occupied by Judah’s sister kingdom called Israel or Ephraim. They were in distress but not anymore. ByContinueContinue reading “Isaiah 9 Commentary”

Isaiah 8 Commentary http://www.lovingscripture.com Isaiah is full of symbols and teaching aids. Chapter 8 introduces another symbol. Isaiah’s wife conceives and the LORD orders Isaiah to name the boy ‘Quick Loot, Fast Plunder’. It is a message against Samaria and Damascus. Both nations would be scattered soonest – right before your own eyes! The LORDContinueContinue reading “Isaiah 8 Commentary”

Isaiah 7 Commentary http://www.lovingscripture.com The message has been that of judgment against Jerusalem. But chapter 7 is different. Yes, the city would be flattened by an external executor but not Judah’s sister kingdom called Ephraim – a moniker for the northern kingdom of Israel. Definitely not by Israel’s ally, Aram. We learn a couple ofContinueContinue reading “Isaiah 7 Commentary”

Isaiah 6 Commentary http://www.lovingscripture.com In the Amplified Bible, chapter 6 is titled “Isaiah’s Vision”. We think the NIV Bible has a more palatable title: Isaiah’s Commission. If Isaiah’s lone vision makes your head roll, think of the countless visions of John in the Book of Revelation! But hold it for now and let’s move atContinueContinue reading “Isaiah 6 Commentary”

Isaiah 5 Commentary http://www.lovingscripture.com There are consequences for fruitlessness. That’s the subject of the second section of chapter 5. But coming up first is a song in the first section. It all culminates in an all-important question: “What more could have been done for my vineyard than I have done for it? When I lookedContinueContinue reading “Isaiah 5 Commentary”

Isaiah 4 Commentary http://www.lovingscripture.com Is the world so short of leadership that seven women can take hold of one man for marriage? And he, even he cannot marry them. Yes, they have their own fat incomes, titles, and careers. But a name they don’t have. The world can bask in material abundance, fame, and financialContinueContinue reading “Isaiah 4 Commentary”
