Isaías 46:4

4 Mesmo na sua velhice, quando tiverem cabelos brancos,sou eu aquele, aquele que os susterá.Eu os fiz e eu os levarei;eu os sustentarei e eu os salvarei.

Isaías 46:4 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 46:4

And even to your old age I am he
The same he ever was, the eternal and unchangeable Jehovah; the same in his love and affections; in his sympathy and care; in his power and protection; in his promises, truth, and faithfulness to his people, in their last days, as at the first moment of their conversion; and therefore they are safe; see ( Psalms 102:27 ) ( Malachi 3:6 ) : and even to hoar hairs will I carry you
F14; which is doing more than the most tender parent does, or can, or need to do! God will not leave his people in the decline of life, when pressing infirmities are upon them, and they stand in as much need as ever of being bore up, supported, and carried: wherefore it follows, I have made;
these persons, not merely as creatures, but as new creatures; they are formed for myself; they are my sons and daughters, the works of my hands: I have an interest in them, therefore I will bear, even I will carry:
from the first of their regeneration, to their entrance into glory; (See Gill on Isaiah 46:3); And will deliver you;
out of all affliction; out of all temptations; out of the hand of every enemy; from a final and total falling away; from a body of sin and death; from death eternal, and wrath to come; and even at last from the grave and all corruption.


FOOTNOTES:

F14 This seems to express more than old age, as Ben Melech observes hence the Jews say, a man sixty years old is come to old age, and one of seventy to hoary hairs.

Isaías 46:4 In-Context

2 Juntos eles se abaixam e se inclinam;incapazes de salvar o fardo,eles mesmos vão para o cativeiro.
3 “Escute-me, ó casa de Jacó,todos vocês que restam da nação de Israel,vocês, a quem tenho sustentado desde que foram concebidos,e que tenho carregado desde o seu nascimento.
4 Mesmo na sua velhice, quando tiverem cabelos brancos,sou eu aquele, aquele que os susterá.Eu os fiz e eu os levarei;eu os sustentarei e eu os salvarei.
5 “Com quem vocês vão comparar-me ou a quem me considerarão igual?A quem vocês me assemelharão para que sejamos comparados?
6 Alguns derramam ouro de suas bolsase pesam prata na balança;contratam um ourives para transformar isso num deus,inclinam-se e o adoram.
