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.

Isaiah 40:25 In-Context

23 He brings the princes to nothing; He makes the judges of the earth useless.

24 Scarcely shall they be planted, Scarcely shall they be sown, Scarcely shall their stock take root in the earth, When He will also blow on them, And they will wither, And the whirlwind will take them away like stubble.

25 "To whom then will you liken Me, Or to whom shall I be equal?" says the Holy One.

26 Lift up your eyes on high, And see who has created these things, Who brings out their host by number; He calls them all by name, By the greatness of His might And the strength of His power; Not one is missing.
