Isaiah 9:13 - Forerunner Commentary

Isaiah 9:13

11 Therefore the Lord shall set up
The adversaries of Rezin against him,
And spur his enemies on,

12 The Syrians before and the Philistines behind;
And they shall devour Israel with an open mouth.
For all this His anger is not turned away,
But His hand is¹ stretched out still.

13 For the people do not turn to Him who strikes them,
Nor do they seek the Lord of hosts.

14 Therefore the Lord will cut off head and tail from Israel,
Palm branch and bulrush ^ain one day.

15 The elder and honorable, he is the head;
The prophet who teaches lies, he is the tail.

16 For ^athe leaders of this people cause them to err,
And those who are led by them are destroyed.

Isaiah 9:8-16

Many of you who are familiar with Jonathan Kahn's book, The Harbinger, and his interpretation of these verses, know how he applied them to the terror attack of the World Trade Center and the prideful arrogancy of the people that followed from modern Israel.

Some of them seem to fit, but the bottom line is throughout Isaiah 9:10 and 11, you will find a great deal of prophecy. But the overall lesson that I want us to hold on to from all of this is everything that happens is ultimately under the absolute sovereign work of the Creator, moving the whole creation towards the end of the perfect unity within the God Family.
