Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Isaiah 11:5

_ _ righteousness ... girdle — (Revelation 1:13; Revelation 19:11). The antitypical High Priest (Exodus 28:4). The girdle secures firmly the rest of the garments (1 Peter 1:13). So “truth” gives firm consistency to the whole character (Ephesians 5:14). In Isaiah 59:17, “righteousness” is His breastplate.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Isaiah 11:1-9.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Isaiah 11:5

The girdle — It shall adorn him, and be the glory of his government, as a girdle was used for an ornament, Isaiah 3:24, and as an ensign of power, Job 12:18, and it shall constantly cleave to him in all his administrations, as a girdle cleaveth to a man's loins.
