Isaías 63:14

14 como o gado que desce à planície,foi-lhes dado descanso pelo Espírito do SENHOR.Foi assim que guiaste o teu povopara fazer para ti um nome glorioso.

Isaías 63:14 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 63:14

As a beast goeth down into the valley
Softly and gently, especially when laden; which may have some respect to the descent of the Israelites into the sea, into which they entered without any fear and dread, and without any hurry and precipitation, though Pharaoh's host was behind them; or rather, "as a beast goes along a valley", or "plain" F3; with ease, and without any interruption, so passed the Israelites through the sea. Thus the Targum renders it,

``as a beast goes, or is led, in a plain;''
so the word is used in ( Isaiah 38:8 ) , and elsewhere: the Spirit of the Lord caused him to rest;
or gently led him, that is, Israel; he walked on through the sea, with as much facility, and as little danger, as a beast walks on in a valley, or a horse in a plain. Some understand this of leading Israel through the wilderness, where often resting places were found for them, and at last they were brought to the land of rest, Canaan, and settled there: so didst thou lead thy people;
both through the sea, and through the wilderness, in a like easy, safe, and gentle manner: to make thyself a glorious name;
among the nations of the world, as he did by this amazing appearance of his for Israel; and it is hoped by those, whose words these are, he would do the like again, and get himself immortal glory.

Isaías 63:14 In-Context

12 que com o seu glorioso braçoesteve à mão direita de Moisés,que dividiu as águas diante delespara alcançar renome eterno,
13 e os conduziu através das profundezas?Como o cavalo em campo aberto,eles não tropeçaram;
14 como o gado que desce à planície,foi-lhes dado descanso pelo Espírito do SENHOR.Foi assim que guiaste o teu povopara fazer para ti um nome glorioso.
15 Olha dos altos céus,da tua habitação elevada, santa e gloriosa.Onde estão o teu zelo e o teu poder?Retiveste a tua bondade e a tua compaixão; elas já nos faltam!
16 Entretanto, tu és o nosso Pai.Abraão não nos conhecee Israel nos ignora;tu, SENHOR, és o nosso Paie, desde a antiguidade, te chamas nosso Redentor.
