Isaiah 65:16

That he—rather, "he who," etc.

blesseth, etc.— (Psalms 72:17; Jeremiah 4:2).

God of truth—very God, as opposed to false gods; Hebrew, Amen: the very name of Messiah (II Corinthians 1:20; Revelation 3:14), faithful to His promises (John 1:17; John 6:32). Real, substantial, spiritual, eternal, as opposed to the shadowy types of the law.

sweareth, etc.—God alone shall be appealed to as God (Isaiah 19:18; Deuteronomy 6:13; Psalms 63:11).

troubles—that is, sins, provocations [LOWTH]. Rather, calamities caused by your sins; so far from these visiting you again, the very remembrance of them is "hid from Mine eyes" by the magnitude of the blessings I will confer on you (Isaiah 65:17, etc.). [MAURER].
