Isaías 5:15

15 El hombre será humillado,la humanidad, doblegada,y abatidos los ojos altivos.

Isaías 5:15 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 5:15

And the mean man shall be brought down
To hell, or the grave, as well as the rich and noble: and the mighty man shall be humbled;
laid low in the dust, and be equal to the poor; for, in the grave, princes and peasants are alike; or they shall be all alike, in the same low and miserable condition: and the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled;
when famine and distress, ruin and misery, come upon them, then shall the pride of those be abased, as it was; who boasted of their riches and honour, of their descent and parentage, as the children of Abraham, and as being free men, and never in bondage; of their righteousness and good works; not submitting to the righteousness of Christ; but despising it, and looking with disdain upon, and treating with contempt, such as they thought less holy than themselves. The Scribes and Pharisees, the members of the sanhedrim, and rulers of the people, together with the whole body of the nation, are meant; who were all of the same cast and complexion, being conceited of themselves, and proud boasters.

Isaías 5:15 In-Context

13 Por eso mi pueblo será exiliadoporque no me conoce;sus nobles perecerán de hambrey la multitud se morirá de sed.

14 Por eso el sepulcro ensancha su garganta,y desmesuradamente abre sus fauces.Allí bajan nobles y plebeyos,con sus juergas y diversiones.

15 El hombre será humillado,la humanidad, doblegada,y abatidos los ojos altivos.

16 Pero el SEÑOR Todopoderoso será exaltado en justicia,el Dios santo se mostrará santo en rectitud.

17 Los corderos pastarán como en praderas propias,y las cabras comerán entre las ruinas de los ricos.
