Isaías 44:21-26

21 Acuérdate de estas cosas, oh Jacob, e Israel, que mi siervo eres: Yo te formé, mi siervo eres tú ; Israel, no me olvides.

22 Yo deshice, como nube, tus rebeliones, y tus pecados, como niebla; tórnate a mí, porque yo te redimí.

23 Cantad loores, oh cielos, porque el SEÑOR lo hizo; gritad con júbilo, lugares bajos de la tierra. Prorrumpid, montes, en alabanza; bosque, y todo árbol que en él está ; porque el SEÑOR redimió a Jacob, y en Israel será glorificado.

24 Así dice el SEÑOR, Redentor tuyo, y Formador tuyo desde el vientre: Yo soy el SEÑOR, que lo hago todo, que extiendo solo los cielos, que extiendo la tierra por mí mismo;

25 que deshago las señales de los adivinos, y enloquezco a los agoreros, que hago tornar atrás los sabios, y desvanezco su sabiduría;

26 que despierta la palabra de su siervo, y que cumple el consejo de sus mensajeros; que digo a Jerusalén: Serás habitada; y a las ciudades de Judá: Serán reedificadas, y sus ruinas levantaré;

Isaías 44:21-26 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO ISAIAH 44

In this chapter the Lord comforts his people with the promise of the effusion of his Spirit, and the blessings of his grace upon them; the consequence of which would be fruitfulness in them, and the conversion of others, who should profess themselves the Lord's people, Isa 44:1-5, he proves his deity in opposition to all false gods from his eternity, omniscience, and foretelling future events, Isa 44:6-8, exposes the stupidity of idol makers and the worshippers of them, Isa 44:9-20, makes gracious promises of the remembrance of his people, the remission of their sins, and their redemption by Christ, Isa 44:21-23, of which redemption from Babylon was a type; and of that assurance is given, from the Lord's creating all things by his power; from his frustrating and infatuating diviners and wise men; from his fulfilling his predictions delivered by his prophets; and from his mentioning by name the instrument of their redemption, Cyrus, Isa 44:24-28, which makes way for a particular prophecy concerning him in the next chapter.
