Isaiah 42:8 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.

God turns from addressing Messiah to the people.

I (am) the Lord - Yahweh (H3068); God's distinguishing and incommunicable name, indicating essential being and immutable faithfulness (cf. Exodus 6:3; Psalms 83:18; Psalms 96:5; Hosea 12:5).

My glory - that is, the glory due to me, and to me alone.

Isaiah 42:8

8 I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.
