Commentary on Isaiah 18:4

Theological / Devotional

I will take my rest. Verse 4 presents a striking picture of the calm and unhurried way in which the Lord works out His will among the nations (see Ed 173). His eye is over everything, and His hand is in control. With calm deliberation He sends forth judgment or blessing, treating all peoples in accord with His infinite wisdom and justice. Nothing may happen without His knowledge; no judgment may fall without His permission. When the ripening grain is ready to harvest He sends forth His reapers to accomplish their mission.
