Isaiah 40:25 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 40:25

To whom then will ye liken me, or shall I be equal, saith the
Holy One?
] Or be upon a level with? since the greatest of men on earth are brought to nothing by him, and are no more: this is repeated from ( Isaiah 40:18 ) and supported with fresh strength of argument, to show that there is nothing whatever, that is a fit likeness and similitude, by which to represent the Lord.
