Commentary on Isaiah 42:3

Theological / Devotional

A bruised reed. See on Matt. 12:20. Messiah will minister tenderly to the weak, the bruised, and the oppressed. He is a friend to the humble, contrite sinner — to every man who finds himself in need. Men who appear to themselves and to others almost beyond hope will find in Him the comfort, strength, and courage they so much need.

Smoking flax. That is, a linen wick flickering and ready to go out.
