Isaías 44:6 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 44:6

Thus saith the Lord the King of Israel
The King of the whole world, and Governor among the nations; and in a peculiar manner King of Israel, that nation being a theocracy; and especially King of spiritual Israel, or King of saints, be they of what nation they will: and his Redeemer, the Lord of hosts;
who redeemed Israel out of Egypt, from the house of bondage, and would again redeem them from the Babylonish captivity, and the whole Israel of God from sin, Satan, and the law; which he was able to do, being "the Lord of hosts", of the armies above and below: I am the first, and I am the last;
the first cause and last end, of all things in nature, and providence, and grace; all things are of him, through him, and from him; all things were made by him in creation, and for his pleasure they are and were created; and all things are disposed of in his providence for his own glory; and he is the first in reconciliation, justification, and salvation, and all are to the glory of his grace: or this is a periphrasis of his eternity, who is from everlasting to everlasting, without beginning or end, the Alpha and Omega; the same is said of Christ, ( Revelation 1:8 Revelation 1:11 Revelation 1:17 ) , and all the other characters before mentioned agree with him: and besides me there is no God:
all others are only gods by name, not by nature, mere nominal fictitious deities, not real ones; and it is to the exclusion of these from the rank of deity, these words are said; but not to the exclusion of the Son of God, and the Holy Spirit, who, with the Father, are the one true God.

Isaías 44:6 In-Context

4 e brotarão como a erva, como salgueiros junto �s correntes de águas.

5 Este dirá: Eu sou do Senhor; e aquele se chamará do nome de Jacó; e aquele outro escreverá na própria mão: Eu sou do Senhor; e por sobrenome tomará o nome de Israel.

6 Assim diz o Senhor, Rei de Israel, seu Redentor, o Senhor dos exércitos: Eu sou o primeiro, e eu sou o último, e fora de mim não há Deus.

7 Quem há como eu? Que o proclame e o exponha perante mim! Quem tem anunciado desde os tempos antigos as coisas vindouras? Que nos anuncie as que ainda hão de vir.

8 Não vos assombreis, nem temais; porventura não vo-lo declarei há muito tempo, e não vo-lo anunciei? Vós sois as minhas testemunhas! Acaso há outro Deus além de mim? Não, não há Rocha; não conheço nenhuma.
