Commentary on Isaiah 8:22

Theological / Devotional

They shall look. These men gaze heavenward without perceiving either God or light. Then they look earthward, and there find only anguish of soul and perplexity. Without God the world is a bewildering maze of uncertainty and distress. The Messiah, to whom the prophet looks longingly forward in ch. 9:1-7, is man’s only light in the darkness of today, and his only hope for a brighter tomorrow.
