Isaiah 32:3 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 32:3

And the eyes of them that see shall not be dim
Not of the seers and prophets, or ministers of the word only, but of the righteous in general, as the Targum; even all such as are illuminated by the Spirit of God, who shall have a clear discerning of Gospel truths, behold with open face, with eyes unveiled, the glory of them, and of Christ in them, and not have their eyes covered, or such a dim obscure knowledge of them as under the law; and not only the watchmen shall see, eye to eye, all truths clearly and distinctly, but even all, from the least to the greatest, shall know the Lord, and the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of him, as the waters cover the sea. It is a prophecy of the great increase of spiritual light in the times of the Messiah:

and the ears of them that hear shall hearken:
very diligently and attentively to the word preached, and receive and embrace the doctrines of the Gospel, and submit to, and obey, the ordinances of it.

Isaiah 32:3 In-Context

1 A king will rule in a way that brings justice, and leaders will make fair decisions.

2 Then each ruler will be like a shelter from the wind, like a safe place in a storm, like streams of water in a dry land, like a cool shadow from a large rock in a hot land.

3 People will look to the king for help, and they will truly listen to what he says.

4 People who are now worried will be able to understand. Those who cannot speak clearly now will then be able to speak clearly and quickly.

5 Fools will not be called great, and people will not respect the wicked.
