Isaías 41:3 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 41:3

He pursued them, and passed safely.
&c.] Went on in his work, pursued his great design in subduing the souls of men, and bringing them to the obedience of Christ; and though he had so many enemies, he "passed on safely"; God did not suffer them to set upon him, to do him any harm, even though he was exposed to perils by sea and land, by thieves and robbers, by his own countrymen and Heathens, in city and country, and even by false brethren; see ( Acts 18:10 ) ( 2 Corinthians 11:26 ) , it is in the future tense, "he shall pursue them, he shall pass safely" ^F9; or in peace: even by the way that he had not gone with his feet;
travelling in foreign parts, in distant countries, in tracks of land unknown unto him; where he had never been before, even from Jerusalem round about to Illyricum, fully preaching the Gospel of Christ, ( Romans 15:19 ) .

Isaías 41:3 In-Context

1 “Calem-se diante de mim, ó ilhas!Que as nações renovem as suas forças!Que elas se apresentem para se defender;vamos encontrar-nos para decidir a questão.

2 “Quem despertou o que vem do orientee o chamou em retidão ao seu serviço,entregando-lhe naçõese subjugando reis diante dele?Com a espada ele os reduz a pó,com o arco os dispersa como palha.

3 Ele os persegue e avança com segurançapor um caminho que seus pés jamais percorreram.

4 Quem fez tudo isso?Quem chama as gerações à existência desde o princípio?Eu, o SENHOR, que sou o primeiro,e que sou eu mesmo com os últimos”.

5 As ilhas viram isso e temem;os confins da terra tremem.Eles se aproximam e vêm à frente;
