This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Isa_49:2 And he hath made my mouth like a sharp sword; in the shadow of his hand hath he hid me, and made me a polished shaft; in his quiver hath he hid me;
Ver. 2. And he hath made my mouth like a sharp sword.] He hath added efficacy to my doctrine, and will protect my person till I have finished the work that he gave me to do.
And made me a polished shaft.] That, being well pointed, will pierce at a distance, and either prick converts at the heart, {as Act_2:37} or cut refractories to the heart. {as Act_7:54} Christ will pursue his enemies both with the terrors of his words, his mouth being "made like a sharp sword," and with the plagues of his hands, being made like a polished shaft.
