Isaiah 45:11 - Ellicott's Commentary On The Whole Bible

Bible Comments

Ask me of things to come... — As it stands, the verse calls men to consult the Holy One of Israel, and not the oracles of the heathen, about the future, to leave His works to His own control, and this falls in with Isaiah 44:25-26. A slight alteration of the text gives a meaning much more coherent with the immediate context: Will ye question me concerning things to come, concerning my sons ... will ye command me! This was what they were practically doing when they murmured against the providence of God.

Isaiah 45:11

11 Thus saith the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, Ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands command ye me.
