Commentary
Commentary on Isaiah 54:5
Theological / DevotionalThine husband. Although Israel had forsaken her “husband,” He would bring her back to Himself and again be her husband (see Eze. 16:8; Hosea 2:14-20; 3:1-5).
God of the whole earth. See on ch. 56:7. The time was to come when all the inhabitants of earth would submit to His wise and just rule and all the earth would again come under His jurisdiction (see pp. 28-30; see on ch. 45:23). All who refused to yield allegiance to the God of heaven would perish (see Zech. 14:9-19). Jehovah is not God of the Jews alone, but also of the Gentiles (Rom. 3:29). Isaiah beheld the whole earth “full of his glory” (Isa. 6:3). Habakkuk spoke of the time when “the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea” (Hab. 2:14).
