Isaiah 63:7 - Forerunner Commentary

Isaiah 63:7

5 ^aI looked, but ^bthere was no one to help,
And I wondered
That there was no one to uphold;
Therefore My own ^carm brought salvation for Me;
And My own fury, it sustained Me.

6 I have trodden down the peoples in My anger,
Made them drunk in My fury,
And brought down their strength to the earth.”

God’s Mercy Remembered

7 I will mention the lovingkindnesses of the Lord
And the praises of the Lord,
According to all that the Lord has bestowed on us,
And the great goodness toward the house of Israel,
Which He has bestowed on them according to His mercies,
According to the multitude of His lovingkindnesses.

8 For He said, “Surely they are My people,
Children who will not lie.”
So He became their Savior.

9 ^aIn all their affliction He was¹ afflicted,
^bAnd the Angel of His Presence saved them;
^cIn His love and in His pity He redeemed them;
And ^dHe bore them and carried them
All the days of old.

10 But they ^arebelled and ^bgrieved His Holy Spirit;
^cSo He turned Himself against them as an enemy,
And He fought against them.

11 Then he ^aremembered the days of old,
Moses and his people, saying:
“Where is He who ^bbrought them up out of the sea
With the¹ shepherd of His flock?
^cWhere is He who put His Holy Spirit within them,

12 Who led them by the right hand of Moses,
^aWith His glorious arm,
^bDividing the water before them
To make for Himself an everlasting name,

13 ^aWho led them through the deep,
As a horse in the wilderness,
That they might not stumble?”

14 As a beast goes down into the valley,
And the Spirit of the Lord causes him to rest,
So You lead Your people,
^aTo make Yourself a glorious name.

A Prayer of Penitence

15 ^aLook down from heaven,
And see ^bfrom Your habitation, holy and glorious.
Where are Your zeal and Your strength,
The yearning ^cof Your heart and Your mercies toward me?
Are they restrained?
