(Show All Books | Show All Chapters)
This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Isa_17:7 At that day shall a man look to his Maker, and his eyes shall have respect to the Holy One of Israel.
Ver. 7. At that day shall a man look to his Maker.] The elect among the Israelites shall do so, having been whipped home as before. There is an elegance in the original, as there are many in this prophet, that cannot be translated. Here also, and in the next verse, we have a description of true repentance, the right fruit of affliction sanctified. Penitence and punishment are words of one derivation.
