Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Isaiah 2:2

_ _ Same as Micah 4:1. As Micah prophesied in Jotham’s reign, and Isaiah in Uzziah’s, Micah rests on Isaiah, whom he confirms: not vice versa. Hengstenberg on slight grounds makes Micah 4:1 the original.

_ _ last days — that is, Messiah’s: especially the days yet to come, to which all prophecy hastens, when “the house of the God of Jacob,” namely, at Jerusalem, shall be the center to which the converted nations shall flock together (Matthew 13:32; Luke 2:31, Luke 2:32; Acts 1:6, Acts 1:7); where “the kingdom” of Israel is regarded as certain and the time alone uncertain (Psalms 68:15, Psalms 68:16; Psalms 72:8, Psalms 72:11).

_ _ mountain of the Lord’s house ... in the top, etc. — the temple on Mount Moriah: type of the Gospel, beginning at Jerusalem, and, like an object set on the highest hill, made so conspicuous that all nations are attracted to it.

_ _ flow — as a broad stream (Isaiah 66:12).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Isaiah 2:1-5.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Isaiah 2:2

In the last days — In the times of the Messiah. For Christ's institutions were to continue to the end of the world. The mountain — The temple of the Lord which is upon mount Moriah; which yet is not to be understood literally of that material temple, but mystically of the church of God; as appears from the flowing of all nations to it, which was not to that temple, nor indeed was fulfilled 'till that temple was destroyed. Exalted — Shall be placed and settled in a most conspicuous and glorious manner, being advanced above all other churches and kingdoms.

And it (a) shall come to pass in the last days, [that] the mount of the LORD'S house (b) shall be established on the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall (c) flow to it.

(a) The decree and ordinance of God, concerning the restoration of the Church, which is chiefly meant by the time of Christ.
