Isaías 5:21 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 5:21

Woe unto [therm that are] wise in their own eyes
And yet betray such stupidity and sottishness, as to call things by their wrong names; and make such a perverse judgment of them, as before described. This is a true description of the Scribes and Pharisees in Christ's time; who said, "dost thou teach us? are we blind also?" ( John 9:34-40 ) and prudent in their own sight;
being wise above what was written; leaving the word of God, and following the traditions of the elders.

Isaías 5:21 In-Context

19 E dizem: Apresse-se Deus, avie a sua obra, para que a vejamos; e aproxime-se e venha o propósito do Santo de Israel, para que o conheçamos.
20 Ai dos que ao mal chamam bem, e ao bem mal; que põem as trevas por luz, e a luz por trevas, e o amargo por doce, e o doce por amargo!
21 Ai dos que são sábios a seus próprios olhos, e astutos em seu próprio conceito!
22 Ai dos que são poderosos para beber vinho, e valentes para misturar bebida forte;
23 dos que justificam o ímpio por peitas, e ao inocente lhe tiram o seu direito!
