Jump to Previous Awake Beautiful Circumcision City Clothe Defiled Enter Garments Henceforth Holy Jerusalem Longer Robes Splendor Strength Uncircumcised Unclean ZionJump to Next Awake Beautiful Circumcision City Clothe Defiled Enter Garments Henceforth Holy Jerusalem Longer Robes Splendor Strength Uncircumcised Unclean ZionIsaiah 52 1. Christ persuades the church to believe his free redemption7. To receive the ministers thereof 9. To joy in the power thereof 11. And to free themselves from bondage 13. Christ's kingdom shall be exalted Awake, awake The repetition of "awake" serves as a powerful call to action, emphasizing urgency and importance. In Hebrew, the word "עורי" (ʿûrî) is used, which means to rouse oneself or stir up. This is a divine summons for Jerusalem to rise from a state of spiritual slumber or complacency. Historically, this call can be seen as a prophetic encouragement to the Israelites during their Babylonian exile, urging them to prepare for the coming redemption and restoration. Spiritually, it serves as a reminder for believers to remain vigilant and spiritually alert, ready to embrace God's promises. put on your strength, O Zion put on your garments of splendor, O Jerusalem, Holy City For the uncircumcised and unclean will no longer enter you (1) Awake, awake . . .--The repetition of the burden of Isa Ii. 9, 17, indicates, by a subtle touch of art, the continuity of thought. The call is addressed as before to Zion, as a castaway. It summons her to the highest glory. She is to put on the garments of beauty, which belong to her as the priestly queen of cities. (Comp. Exodus 28:2.) The alien and the impure shall no longer ride victorious through her streets, as in Isaiah 51:23. (Comp. Ezekiel 44:9, and the picture of the heavenly Jerusalem in Revelation 21:2.) Verses 1-6. - FURTHER ADDRESS OF THE PROPHET TO JERUSALEM. Zion is exhorted to rise from the dust, throw off her bonds, and assert her freedom (vers. 1, 2). God will deliver her from this third captivity for his Name's sake, which her oppressors blaspheme (vers. 3-6). Verse 1. - Awake, awake; put on thy strength (comp. Isaiah 51:9). God can help those only who help themselves. The "arm of the Lord" having been called upon to "put on strength" in order to help Zion, Zion is now exhorted to do her part, and put on her own strength. Nor is she to stop there; she is further to rut on her beautiful garments - to array herself in the glorious robes which befit her as a royal and a holy city, and show herself once more a queen, instead of being content to remain grovelling as a captive (Isaiah 51:20, 21). Henceforth there shall no more come into thee the uncircumcised. Foreigners shall no more visit Jerusalem to injure her or exult over her misfortunes (comp. Joel 3:17). When the influx of the Gentiles comes (Isaiah 42:6; Isaiah 49:6, 22, etc.), it will be one of Gentiles who are "circumcised in heart and lips," and no longer "unclean" (Acts 10:15).Parallel Commentaries ...
