Isaiah 44:24
Compare all
22 aI have blotted out, like a thick cloud, your transgressions,
And like a cloud, your sins.
Return to Me, for bI have redeemed you.” 
23 aSing, O heavens, for the Lord has done it!
Shout, you lower parts of the earth;
Break forth into singing, you mountains,
O forest, and every tree in it!
For the Lord has redeemed Jacob,
And bglorified Himself in Israel. 

Judah Will Be Restored

24 Thus says the Lord, ayour Redeemer,
And bHe who formed you from the womb:
“I am the Lord, who makes all things,
cWho stretches out the heavens1 all alone,
Who spreads abroad the earth by Myself; 
25 Who afrustrates the signs bof the babblers,
And drives diviners mad;
Who turns wise men backward,
cAnd makes their knowledge foolishness; 
26 aWho confirms the word of His servant,
And performs the counsel of His messengers;
Who says to Jerusalem, ‘You shall be inhabited,’
To the cities of Judah, ‘You shall be built,’
And I will raise up her waste places; 
27 aWho says to the deep, ‘Be dry!
And I will dry up your rivers’; 
28 Who says of aCyrus, ‘He is My shepherd,
And he shall perform all My pleasure,
Saying to Jerusalem, b“You shall be built,”
And to the temple, “Your foundation shall be laid.” ’

Barnes' Notes
<< Isaiah 44:23   Isaiah 44:25 >>


Isaiah 44:24

Thy Redeemer - (See the note at Isaiah 43:1).

And he that formed thee from thee womb - (See the note at Isaiah 44:2).

That stretcheth forth the heavens - (See the note at Isaiah 40:22).

That spreadeth abroad the earth - Representing the earth, as is often done in the Scriptures, as a plain. God here appeals to the fact that he alone had made the heavens and the earth, as the demonstration that he is able to accomplish what is here said of the deliverance of his people. The same God that made the heavens is the Redeemer and Protector of the church, and therefore the church is safe.
