Isaiah 51:19 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

These things — Those which follow, which tho' expressed in four words, may fitly be reduced to two things, the desolation or devastation of the land, and the destruction of the people by famine and sword. So famine and sword are not named as new evils, but only as the particular ways of bringing the destruction. By whom — I cannot find any man who is able to comfort and relieve thee.

Isaiah 51:19

19 These two things are come unto thee; who shall be sorry for thee? desolation, and destruction, and the famine, and the sword: by whom shall I comfort thee?
