Commentary on Isaiah 63:15

Theological / Devotional

Look down. This is a prayer to God for help. In ancient times God had wonderfully guided and blessed His people. Had He now forgotten them? Where now are the zeal and strength that in former times were so gloriously manifested in behalf of His children?

Thy bowels. The bowels were regarded as the seat of emotion and compassion (see Gen. 43:30; 1 Kings 3:26; Isa. 16:11; Jer. 4:19; Lam. 1:20).
