Isaiah 43:11

11 I, I am the LORD, and there is no savior besides me.

Isaiah 43:11 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 43:11

I, even I, am the Lord
Jehovah, the self-existing, eternal, and immutable Being; this is doubled for the confirmation of it, and to exclude all others: and besides me there is no Saviour;
either in a temporal or spiritual sense; the gods of the Heathens could not save them out of their present troubles, and much less save them with an everlasting salvation; none but God can do this, and this is a proof that Christ is God, since none but God can be a Saviour.

Isaiah 43:11 In-Context

9 All the nations are gathered together; the peoples are assembled. Which of them announced this? Who predicted to us the past events? Let them bring their witnesses as a defense; let them hear and say, "It's true!"
10 You are my witnesses, says the LORD, my servant, whom I chose, so that you would know and believe me and understand that I am the one. Before me no god was formed; after me there has been no other.
11 I, I am the LORD, and there is no savior besides me.
12 I announced, I saved, I proclaimed, not some stranger among you. You are my witnesses, says the LORD, and I am God.
13 From the dawn of time, I am the one. No one can escape my power. I act, and who can undo it?
