Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Isaiah 43:1

COM commentary-section · status:draft · license:PD

1. But now —notwithstanding God's past just judgments for Israel's sins. created —not only in the general sense, but specially created as a peculiar people unto Himself ( Isaiah 43:7 ; Isaiah 43:15 ; Isaiah 43:21 ; Isaiah 44:2 ; Isaiah 44:21 ; Isaiah 44:24 ). So believers, "created in Christ Jesus" ( Isaiah 44:24- : ), "a peculiar people" ( Isaiah 44:24- : ). redeemed —a second argument why they should trust Him besides creation. The Hebrew means to ransom by a price paid in lieu of the captives (compare Isaiah 43:3 ). Babylon was to be the ransom in this case, that is, was to be destroyed, in order that they might be delivered; so Christ became a curse, doomed to death, that we might be redeemed. called . . . by . . . name —not merely "called" in general, as in Isaiah 42:6 ; Isaiah 48:12 ; Isaiah 51:2 , but designated as His own peculiar people (compare Isaiah 45:3 ; Isaiah 45:4 ; Exodus 32:1 ; Exodus 33:12 ; John 10:3 ). return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-2" class="com-number"
