Commentary

Commentary on Isaiah 28:13

Theological / Devotional

Fall backward. God had spoken to His people clearly and simply, and they were without excuse. But His counsels, which were intended to bring blessing, now stood to witness against them. The “chief corner stone” of truth had become to them “a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence” (1 Peter 2:6-8; cf. Isa. 28:16). What had been given to help men became the occasion of their fall (see on Rom. 7:10).
