Isaiah 26:12 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

LORD, thou wilt ordain peace for us: for thou also hast wrought all our works in us.

Peace for us - "peace:" God's favour; including all blessings, temporal and spiritual, opposed to their previous trials (Psalms 138:8).

For us ... in us. The Hebrew is the same in both clauses - laanuw (H3807a) ... laanuw (H3807a). The seeming antithesis of for and in is unreal. Both ought to be "for us."

Isaiah 26:12

12 LORD, thou wilt ordain peace for us: for thou also hast wrought all our works in us.d
