Ésaïe 40:28

28 Ne le sais-tu pas, ne l'as-tu pas entendu, que l'Éternel est le Dieu d'éternité, qui a créé les extrémités de la terre? Il ne se lasse point, il ne se fatigue point, et on ne peut sonder son intelligence.

Ésaïe 40:28 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 40:28

Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard?
&c.] From the history of the church in all ages; from the experience of all good men; from their own knowledge and observation; from the Scriptures, and the prophets, the interpreters of them; both that what is before suggested is wrong, and that what follows is true, that the everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the
earth, fainteth not, neither is weary?
or, "the God of the world"; that has made it, and upholds it, and governs it, and judges righteously in it; who is from everlasting to everlasting, unchangeably the same; whose name alone is Jehovah, the self-existent and all comprehending Being, the Maker and Former of all things; who has not only created the earth, and the foundations of it, as the Targum, or the continent, and the habitable part of the world, that is most known and dwelt in, but even the extremities of the earth; and therefore knows and will take care of his own people, let them be where they will: and though the work of creation, and of upholding creatures in their beings, and of governing the world, and providing for all in it, and of taking care of his church and people in particular, requires so much power, as well as wisdom, yet he never sinks under it, nor is weary of it; wherefore they have no reason to give way to such unbelief and despondency, as above expressed: there is no searching of his understanding;
it is infinite, it reaches to all persons and things, and therefore he cannot be at a loss to provide for his people, or plead their cause; nor can their case be unknown to him, or he want either power or skill to help them.

Ésaïe 40:28 In-Context

26 Levez les yeux en haut, et regardez: qui a créé ces choses? C'est lui qui fait sortir en ordre leur armée, et qui les appelle toutes par leur nom; telle est la grandeur de son pouvoir et de sa force puissante, que pas une ne manque à lui obéir.

27 Pourquoi donc dirais-tu, Jacob, et pourquoi parlerais-tu ainsi, Israël: Mon état est caché à l'Éternel, et mon Dieu ne soutient plus mon droit?

28 Ne le sais-tu pas, ne l'as-tu pas entendu, que l'Éternel est le Dieu d'éternité, qui a créé les extrémités de la terre? Il ne se lasse point, il ne se fatigue point, et on ne peut sonder son intelligence.

29 Il donne de la force à celui qui est lassé; il accroît la vigueur de celui qui est affaibli.

30 Les jeunes gens se fatiguent et se lassent, les jeunes hommes deviennent chancelants.
