Commentary on Isaiah 48:22

Theological / Devotional

There is no peace. Compare ch. 57:20, 21. The earnest exhortations and reproofs of this chapter (vs. 1, 4, 8, 10, 17, 18) are climaxed by this blunt statement concerning the tragic results of transgression. Peace is the inevitable result of righteousness (see on ch. 32:17), and is utterly impossible for those who walk in ways of evil. In v. 18 peace is associated with obedience to God’s commandments. However earnestly men may search for peace they cannot secure it except on God’s terms.
