Isaías 40:5 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 40:5

And the glory of the Lord shall be revealed.
&c.] Christ himself, who is the brightness of his Father's glory, and his own glory, as the glory of the of the only begotten of the Father; the glorious perfections of his nature, seen in the miracles wrought, and in the doctrines taught by him; the glory of the divine Father, in the face or person of Christ; and the glory of his attributes, in the work of salvation by him; all which is most clearly discerned in the glass of the Gospel, or in the ministry of the word, by John, Christ himself, and his apostles: and all flesh shall see it together;
not the Jews only, but Gentiles also; not with their bodily eyes, but with the eyes of their understanding; even the salvation of the Lord, and his glory, as displayed in it, being set forth in the everlasting Gospel to the view of all; see ( Luke 3:7 ) , for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it:
that his glory should be revealed, and be visible to all, and therefore sure and certain; for what he has said he does, and what he has spoken he makes good. The Targum is,

``for by the word of the Lord it is so decreed;''

and therefore shall be fulfilled.

Isaías 40:5 In-Context

3 ¡Escuchen! Es la voz de alguien que clama:
«¡Abran camino a través del desierto
para el Señor
!
¡Hagan una carretera derecha a través de la tierra baldía
para nuestro Dios!

4 Rellenen los valles
y allanen los montes y las colinas;
enderecen las curvas
y suavicen los lugares ásperos.

5 Entonces se revelará la gloria del Señor
y todas las personas la verán.
¡El Señor
ha hablado!».

6 Una voz dijo: «¡Grita!».
Y yo pregunté: «¿Qué debo gritar?».
«Grita que los seres humanos son como la hierba.
Su belleza se desvanece tan rápido
como las flores en un campo.

7 La hierba se seca y las flores se marchitan
bajo el aliento del Señor
.
Y así sucede también con los seres humanos.
