Commentary on Isaiah 59:20

Theological / Devotional

Fear the name. Like Egypt of old, the nations are all bound to respect the power and majesty of God when He rises in defense of His people (see on ch. 45:23). When God’s “judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness” (ch. 26:9).

God’s final manifestation of power in behalf of His people will cause all to acknowledge Him, from one end of the earth to the other (Ps. 50:1-6; Mal. 1:11; Rev. 5:13 ; 15:3,4).

Commentary on Isaiah 59:20

Theological / Devotional

The Redeemer shall come. This prophecy will be fulfilled at the second coming of Christ. The Lord will then return to save His people — those who have turned from their transgressions and have accepted Him as their Saviour. In Rom. 11:26, 27 Paul applies similar words to the time when “all Israel shall be saved.”
