This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Isa_27:12 And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] the LORD shall beat off from the channel of the river unto the stream of Egypt, and ye shall be gathered one by one, O ye children of Israel.
Ver. 12. In that day,] sc., When God shall have purged his people by his Word and by his rod.
The Lord shall beat off.] Or, Shall thresh. The ministry of the Word is God’s flail to sever the chaff from grain - to single his out of the midst of wicked and profane worldlings. See the like of afflictions sanctified, Isa_27:9.
And ye shall be gathered.] As ears of grain are for threshing.
One by one.] There is no thresher in the world, saith one here, that thresheth half so clean, for he loseth not one grain, See Joh_17:12; Joh_10:3. Christ hath a care of every one particularly, and by the poll; some gather from hence that the calling of the Jews shall be general and universal.
