Commentary

Commentary on Isaiah 57:14

Theological / Devotional

Cast ye up. Dead Sea scroll 1QIs adds, “a highway” (see ch. 62:10). A highway was to be prepared to facilitate travel to the “holy mountain” of the Lord (ch. 57:13; see on chs. 35:8; 40:3, 4). Isaiah thus figuratively calls upon the leaders of Israel to remove obstructions that hindered the fulfillment of His purpose for Israel (see pp. 30-32).
