Isaiah 1:18 - Forerunner Commentary

Isaiah 1:18

16 “Wash^a yourselves, make yourselves clean;
Put away the evil of your doings from before My eyes.
^bCease to do evil,

17 Learn to do good;
Seek justice,
Rebuke¹ the oppressor;
¹Defend the fatherless,
Plead for the widow.

18 “Come now, and let us ^areason together,”
Says the Lord,
“Though your sins are like scarlet,
^bThey shall be as white as snow;
Though they are red like crimson,
They shall be as wool.

19 If you are willing and obedient,
You shall eat the good of the land;

20 But if you refuse and rebel,
You shall be devoured by the sword”;
^aFor the mouth of the Lord has spoken.

The Degenerate City

21 ^aHow the faithful city has become a¹ harlot!
It was full of justice;
Righteousness lodged in it,
But now ^bmurderers.

22 ^aYour silver has become dross,
Your wine mixed with water.
