ISAIAH CHAPTER 43



Promises to protect and enlarge the church, Isa_43:1-7. God appealeth to them as witnesses of his power and knowledge, Isa_43:8-13. He foretelleth them the destruction of Babylon, and a new deliverance of his people, Isa_43:14-21; whose sins, Isa_43:22-24, against God’s mercies, render them inexcusable, Isa_43:25-28.



But now thus saith the Lord; but notwithstanding thy gross insensibleness under former judgments, for which I might justly send far heavier ones upon thee, yet I will deal mercifully with thee.



That created thee; that made, thee his people, and that in so miraculous a manner, as if he had created thee a second time out of nothing; and therefore he will be gracious to his own workmanship. I have redeemed thee from the Egyptians, and divers other enemies; and therefore I will redeem thee again.



By thy name; by the name of God’s people, which was as proper and peculiar to them as the name of Israel.
