Isaiah 58:1 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

Cry aloud Be faithful, plain, and earnest in thy addresses, remonstrances, reproofs, and exhortations to and among my people; and spare not Forbear not to speak whatsoever I command thee for their conviction and reformation. Lift up thy voice like a trumpet Be not afraid to exert thy voice and spend thy strength in this work. Give an alarm which all may hear. Show my people their transgressions Set their sins, all their sins, before them, in a true point of view, and with all their aggravations, especially the iniquities of their holy things, and the hypocrisy of their religious services, (Isaiah 58:2,) that they may be brought to true repentance for them.

Isaiah 58:1

1 Cry aloud,a spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and shew my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins.
