Isaiah 59:7 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

Their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed innocent blood: their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity; wasting and destruction are in their paths.

Their feet run to evil - all their members are active in evil; in Isaiah 59:3 the 'hands, fingers, lips, and tongue' are specified.

And they make haste to shed innocent blood - (Romans 3:15.) Contrast David's 'running and hasting' in the ways of God (Psalms 119:32; Psalms 119:60).

Their thoughts (are) thoughts of iniquity - not merely their acts, but their whole thoughts.

Isaiah 59:7

7 Their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed innocent blood: their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity; wasting and destructionb are in their paths.
