Isaia 59:2

Listen to Isaia 59:2
2 Ma le vostre iniquità sono quelle che han fatta separazione tra voi e l’Iddio vostro; e i vostri peccati han fatta nasconder la sua faccia da voi, per non ascoltare.

Isaia 59:2 Meaning and Commentary

Ver. 2 But your iniquities have separated between you and your God,
&c.] Like a partition wall dividing between them, so that they enjoy no communion with him in his worship and ordinances; which is greatly the case of the reformed churches: they profess the true God, and the worship of him, and do attend the outward ordinances of it; but this is done in such a cold formal way, and such sins and wickedness are perpetrated and connived at, that the Lord does not grant his gracious presence to them, but stands at a distance from them: and your sins have hid his face from you,
that he will not hear; or have caused him to hide himself; withdraw his gracious presence; neglect the prayers put up to him; deny an answer to them; or, however, not appear as yet for the deliverance and salvation of them, and bringing them into a more comfortable, prosperous, and happy condition.

Isaia 59:2 In-Context

1 ECCO, la mano del Signore non è raccorciata, per non poter salvare; e la sua orecchia non è aggravata, per non potere udire.
2 Ma le vostre iniquità sono quelle che han fatta separazione tra voi e l’Iddio vostro; e i vostri peccati han fatta nasconder la sua faccia da voi, per non ascoltare.
3 Conciossiachè le vostre mani sieno contaminate di sangue, e le vostre dita d’iniquità; e le vostre labbra hanno proferita falsità, la vostra lingua ha ragionata perversità.
4 Non vi è niuno che gridi per la giustizia, nè che litighi per la verità; si confidano in cose di nulla, e parlano falsità; concepiscono perversità, e partoriscono iniquità.
5 Fanno spicciare uova d’aspido, e tessono tele di ragnoli; chi avrà mangiato delle loro uova ne morrà; e schiacciandosene alcuno, ne scoppierà una vipera.
