8 Pois Jerusalém tropeçou, e Judá caiu; porque a sua língua e as suas obras são contra o Senhor, para afrontarem a sua gloriosa presença.

Isaías 3:8 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 3:8

For Jerusalem is ruined, and Judah is fallen,
&e.] This is a reason given why the government of them is refused; they were fallen into such a ruinous condition, that there was no probability of recovering them. And the reason of this their fall and ruin is, because their tongue and their doings [are] against the Lord;
against the Lord Jesus Christ, whom they reproached and vilified as an impostor, a blasphemer, and a seditious person; and whom they spit upon, buffeted, scourged, and crucified: to provoke the eyes of his glory;
whose glory, as seen by some in the days of his humiliation, was as the glory of the only begotten of the Father; and, upon his ascension, he was crowned with glory and honour: and as his eyes saw, as well as his ears heard, all their blasphemy and wickedness; so they refusing to have him to reign over them, he was provoked to come in his kingdom with power, and cause his wrath to fall upon them to the uttermost, in the destruction of their country, city, and temple.

Isaías 3:8 In-Context

6 Quando alguém pegar de seu irmão na casa de seu pai, dizendo: Tu tens roupa, tu serás o nosso príncipe, e tomarás sob a tua mão esta ruína.
7 Naquele dia levantará este a sua voz, dizendo: Não quero ser médico; pois em minha casa não há pão nem roupa; não me haveis de constituir governador sobre o povo.
8 Pois Jerusalém tropeçou, e Judá caiu; porque a sua língua e as suas obras são contra o Senhor, para afrontarem a sua gloriosa presença.
9 O aspecto do semblante dá testemunho contra eles; e, como Sodoma, publicam os seus pecados sem os disfarçar. Ai da sua alma! porque eles fazem mal a si mesmos.
10 Dizei aos justos que bem lhes irá; porque comerão do fruto das suas obras.
