Commentary on Isaiah 40:26

Theological / Devotional

Lift up your eyes. If men will but lift their vision heavenward, it is their privilege to behold undeniable evidence of the Creator and Sustainer of all things (see Ps. 19:1-3; Acts 14:17; Rom. 1:19-23). He sits, as it were, above all the starry host of heaven, governing the universe He has created. As we contemplate the number of the stars, their orderly arrangement, their glory and beauty, we cannot but be impressed with our own insignificance and the transcendent power of God. All the heavenly bodies pursue their assigned paths; each has its name and place, and each has its role in the great procession of space.

Faileth. That is, “is lacking,” or “is missing.”
