Isaiah 25:10 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

For in this mountain In the gospel church; (he alludes to mount Zion, which was a type of it;) shall the hand of the Lord rest His powerful and gracious presence (which is often signified in Scripture by God's hand) shall have its constant and settled abode: it shall not move from place to place, as it formerly did, with the tabernacle; nor shall it depart as it did from Jerusalem, but shall continue in his church, even to the end of the world, Matthew 28:20. And Moab shall be trodden down under him. Under his feet, as appears by the following similitude. The Moabites, having been constant and implacable enemies to Israel, are here put for all the enemies of God's church, as the Edomites upon the same account are, chap. 34:6, and 63:1. Even as straw is trodden down Even as easily and effectually as the straw, left upon the ground, is trampled upon by the feet of men and beasts.

Isaiah 25:10

10 For in this mountain shall the hand of the LORD rest, and Moab shall be trodden down under him, even as straw is trodden down for the dunghill.
