Isaiah 32:19 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

When Or, rather, And it shall hail As my blessings shall be poured down upon my people, who, from a wilderness, are turned into a fruitful field, so my judgments (which are signified by hail, Isaiah 28:2; Isaiah 28:17, and elsewhere) shall fall upon them who were a fruitful field, but are turned into a forest, as was said Isaiah 32:15; that is, upon the unbelieving and rebellious Jews. And the city Jerusalem, which, though now it was the seat of God's worship and people, yet he foresaw would be the great enemy of the Messiah; shall be low in a low place Hebrew, תשׁפל בשׁפלה, shall be humbled with humiliation; that is, shall be greatly humbled, or brought very low.

Isaiah 32:19

19 When it shall hail, coming down on the forest; and the city shall be low in a low place.
