The Lord in Judgment and Salvation

1 Who is this who comes from Edom,
With dyed garments from Bozrah,
This One who is1 glorious in His apparel,
Traveling in the greatness of His strength?—
“I who speak in righteousness, mighty to save.” 
2 Why ais Your apparel red,
And Your garments like one who treads in the winepress? 
3 “I have atrodden the winepress alone,
And from the peoples no one was with Me.
For I have trodden them in My anger,
And trampled them in My fury;
Their blood is sprinkled upon My garments,
And I have stained all My robes. 
4 For the aday of vengeance is in My heart,
And the year of My redeemed has come. 
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.

John Wesley's Notes
<< Isaiah 62:12   Isaiah 63:2 >>


Isaiah 63:1

Who - The church makes enquiry, and that with admiration, who it is that appears in such a habit or posture? Edom - Idumea, where Esau dwelt. It is put for all the enemies of the church. Bozrah - The capital city of Idumea. Here is also an allusion to the garments of this conqueror, Edom signifying red, and Bozrah a vintage. Glorious - Such as generals march before their armies in. Righteousness - Here Christ gives an answer, wherein he both asserts his fidelity, that he will faithfully perform what he hath promised, and that he will truly execute justice. Mighty - I have power to accomplish salvation.
