Isaías 17:7 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 17:7

At that day shall a man look to his Maker
The one only living and true God, who has made him, and not he himself, nor any other creature; that is, such as are left, as before described, the remnant, according to the election of grace; these shall look to God for help and assistance, for supply, support, and protection; and to Christ particularly, who is the Maker of all things, without whom was not any thing made that is made, for all spiritual blessings; for righteousness and strength, for peace and pardon, for food, and all comfortable supplies of grace, for life and salvation; who is set up to be looked unto for these things; to whom men are directed and encouraged to look for them, both by himself, and by his ministers, and to whom saints in all ages have looked and have not been disappointed; and to this sense the following words incline: and his eyes shall have respect to the Holy One of Israel;
who in this prophecy is said to be the Redeemer, ( Isaiah 43:14 ) ( 54:5 ) he is the Holy One that sprung from literal Israel; and is the sanctifier of mystical Israel; to which agrees the Targum,

``and his eyes shall hope for the Word of the Holy One of Israel:''

the Word by whom all things were made in the beginning, and who was made flesh and dwelt among men.

Isaías 17:7 In-Context

5 Será como quando um ceifeiro junta o trigoe colhe as espigas com o braço, como quando se apanhamos feixes de trigono vale de Refaim.

6 Contudo, restarão algumas espigas,como, quando se sacode uma oliveira,ficam duas ou três azeitonas nos galhos mais altose umas quatro ou cinco nos ramos mais produtivos,anuncia o SENHOR, o Deus de Israel.

7 Naquele dia, os homens olharão para aquele que os feze voltarão os olhos para o Santo de Israel.

8 Não olharão para os altares,obra de suas mãos,e não darão a mínima atenção aos postes sagradose aos altares de incenso que os seus dedos fizeram.

9 Naquele dia, as suas cidades fortes, que tinham sido abandonadas por causa dos israelitas, serão como lugares entregues aos bosques e ao mato. E tudo será desolação.
