Isaías 6:12 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 6:12

And the Lord have removed men far away
Not to Babylon, but to the ends of the earth, into the most distant countries, by means of the Romans; for they were but instruments of carrying the Jews captive out of their own land, and dispersing them among the several nations of the world; it was the Lord's doing, and a judgment which he inflicted upon them for their sins: and [there be] a great forsaking in the midst of the land;
not that there should be many left in the land, and multiply and increase in it; which is the sense of the Septuagint, Vulgate Latin, and Arabic versions; but that the land should be greatly forsaken of men; there should be many places in the midst of the land destitute of them; and this should continue a long time, as Kimchi observes, which therefore cannot be understood of the Babylonish captivity, but of their present one.

Isaías 6:12 In-Context

10 Haz insensible el corazón de este pueblo;embota sus oídosy cierra sus ojos,no sea que vea con sus ojos,oiga con sus oídos,y entienda con su corazón,y se conviertay sea sanado.

11 Entonces exclamé:—¿Hasta cuándo, Señor?Y él respondió:«Hasta que las ciudades queden destruidasy sin habitante alguno;hasta que las casas queden deshabitadas,y los campos, asolados y en ruinas;

12 hasta que el SEÑOR haya enviado lejos a todo el pueblo,y el país quede en total abandono.

13 Y si aún queda en la tierra una décima parte,esta volverá a ser devastada.Pero así como al talar la encina y el roblequeda parte del tronco,esa parte es la simiente santa».
