Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Isaiah 57:9

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

9. the king — the idol which they came to worship, perfumed with oil, like harlots ( Jeremiah 4:30 ; Ezekiel 23:16 ; Ezekiel 23:40 ). So "king" means idol ( Amos 5:26 ; Zephaniah 1:5 ); ( malcham meaning "king") [ROSENMULLER]. Rather, the king of Assyria or Egypt, and other foreign princes, on whom Israel relied, instead of on God; the "ointment" will thus refer to the presents ( Zephaniah 1:5- : ), and perhaps the compliances with foreigners' idolatries, whereby Israel sought to gain their favor [LOWTH] ( Isaiah 30:6 ; Ezekiel 16:33 ; Ezekiel 23:16 ; Hosea 7:11 ). send . . . messengers far off —not merely to neighboring nations, but to those "far off," in search of new idols, or else alliances. even unto hell —the lowest possible degradation. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-10" class="com-number"
