God’s work through his Servant is to bring back his people to himself, and to bring his light to the nations. Through the Servant salvation will reach to the ends of the earth. This vision of God’s work in the world sustains us through hardship...
The contrast in these chapters is not between proud humans and humble humans. It is not between two kinds of humans at all. The contrast is between human pride and the grace of God. Pride leads to destruction. God’s grace leads to salvation. The call...
This passage is another exposure of the foolishness and futility of idolatry, for idols become burdens to those who trust them. Again God is exalted as Sovereign, for he will accomplish all that he purposes. The people of God are repeatedly exhorted to trust him...
The LORD thunders forth his absolute sovereignty over all. He reveals his intentions to save his people and his unexpected means for doing so. He insists that he is right in doing what he does in the way he chooses to do it. He again...
This passage contains the two-sided affirmation that the LORD only is God, and that idolatry is foolish and futile. The clear witness of Scripture is that God does not dwell in images of wood, stone, and metal, nor in the mental imaginations of man. As...
The word “grace” is not used in this passage, but it could be written over the whole of it. This passage communicates the uniqueness of God as the one living and true LORD, the Creator, the Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel. He alone can...
The message to God’s people is that his Servant will heal them up not break them to ruin. He will fan the flame of their faintly burning lives not blow them out. The Lord is with them in their weakness to bring them under his...
The Lord is communicating to his people that the captivity they are experiencing in no way threatens the reality of his sovereignty or their election. He will strengthen, help, and uphold them. For this reason, they are not to fear. This message for Judah in...

In this section of Isaiah 40 the Lord is reasoning with his people. Through a series of questions he leads them to see his incomparable nature, power, and ways. Isaiah gives us a new understanding of God in Christ, and by it we are renewed...
The renewing vision for the downcast and disheartened, for doubters and those in despair, for all who are in some kind of darkness, is God in his greatness and grace. Isaiah’s prophecy to the exiles points to Jesus Christ who came as the triumphant king...
This prophecy addresses a despondent people with the message that the Lord has not deserted them. The grace of the Lord abounds for forgiveness, deliverance, and the renewal we need to walk humbly and joyfully with him. This is the comfort with which the Lord...
Up to this point in Isaiah, the prophetic call to the people of Judah and Jerusalem has been to trust completely and only in the Lord. Now we come to an on-the-ground, real-life example of what that trust looks like. Hezekiah and the people come...
These two chapters of Isaiah are poetic prophesies of contrasting destinations. One final reality is judgement and the wrath of God. The other is life in the presence of the holy God who dwells with his redeemed in a place of glory and good. The...

The city plays a prominent role in the Bible. It can represent human society living apart from God and in rebellion against him. This city will come to an end. But another city gives us a vision of our future with God. This is the...
A common misunderstanding about God is that he is Lord over only those who profess him to be, and that they are the only ones accountable to him. But Isaiah, and all the Bible, reveals that God is Lord of all; every person and all...
