This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Isa_40:7 The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: because the spirit of the LORD bloweth upon it: surely the people [is] grass.
Ver. 7. Because the Spirit of the Lord bloweth upon it.] Or, when the breath of the Lord bloweth upon it. God can easily blow men to destruction, dissipate them as so many vile dust heaps. {Job_4:9; Job_34:14-15 Psa_104:29 Dan_2:34-35 Zec_4:6}
Surely the people is grass.] Have we not heard; have we not seen from the beginning; doth not every day’s experience seal to it, that all flesh is grass? yea, hath not God oft heard our attestations? We shake our heads, we confess it is true, &c., and yet we lay it not rightly to heart, though so deeply assevered and assured us.
