Isaiah 40:7
Compare all
5 The aglory of the Lord shall be revealed,
And all flesh shall see it together;
For the mouth of the Lord has spoken.” 
6 The voice said, “Cry out!”
And1 he said, “What shall I cry?”
a“All flesh is grass,
And all its loveliness is like the flower of the field. 
7 The grass withers, the flower fades,
Because the breath of the Lord blows upon it;
Surely the people are grass.
8 The grass withers, the flower fades,
But athe word of our God stands forever.” 
9 O Zion,
You who bring good tidings,
Get up into the high mountain;
O Jerusalem,
You who bring good tidings,
Lift up your voice with strength,
Lift it up, be not afraid;
Say to the cities of Judah, “Behold your God!”

Isaiah 40:7

spirit of the Lord—rather, "wind of Jehovah" (Psalms 103:16). The withering east wind of those countries sent by Jehovah (Jonah 4:8).

the people—rather, "this people" [LOWTH], which may refer to the Babylonians [ROSENMULLER]; but better, mankind in general, as in Isaiah 42:5, so Isaiah 40:6, "all flesh"; this whole race, that is, man.
