Notes

Isaiah 29:22

  • Abraham was the father of all Israel (see Genesis 12:1–3; see also Galatians 3:29).

  • Saved from human mistreatment and God's judgment, the people would no longer feel ashamed. Their disgrace came from the failure of what they had trusted (see Psalm 71:1; 1 Peter 2:6).

Isaiah 29:22–24

The prophecy of woe, which began at 29:15, now ends with a prophecy of salvation.

Isaiah 29:15–24

This threat of coming judgment is the third of the six woes (see study note on Isaiah 28:1–33:24). It begins with judgment but moves to a vision of creation being renewed and of the wicked coming to an end.
