Isaiah 28:16
_ _ Literally, “Behold Me as Him who has laid”; namely, in My divine counsel (Revelation 13:8); none save I could lay it (Isaiah 63:5).
_ _ stone — Jesus Christ; Hezekiah [Maurer], or the temple [Ewald], do not realize the full significancy of the language; but only in type point to Him, in whom the prophecy receives its exhaustive accomplishment; whether Isaiah understood its fullness or not (1 Peter 1:11, 1 Peter 1:12), the Holy Ghost plainly contemplated its fulfillment in Christ alone; so in Isaiah 32:1; compare Genesis 49:24; Psalms 118:22; Matthew 21:42; Romans 10:11; Ephesians 2:20.
_ _ tried — both by the devil (Luke 4:1-13) and by men (Luke 20:1-38), and even by God (Matthew 27:46); a stone of tested solidity to bear the vast superstructure of man’s redemption. The tested righteousness of Christ gives its peculiar merit to His vicarious sacrifice. The connection with the context is, though a “scourge” shall visit Judea (Isaiah 28:15), yet God’s gracious purpose as to the elect remnant, and His kingdom of which “Zion” shall be the center, shall not fail, because its rests on Messiah (Matthew 7:24, Matthew 7:25; 2 Timothy 2:19).
_ _ precious — literally, “of preciousness,” so in the Greek, (1 Peter 2:7). He is preciousness.
_ _ corner-stone — (1 Kings 5:17; 1 Kings 7:9; Job 38:6); the stone laid at the corner where two walls meet and connecting them; often costly.
_ _ make haste — flee in hasty alarm; but the Septuagint has “be ashamed”; so Romans 9:33, and 1 Peter 2:6, “be confounded,” substantially the same idea; he who rests on Him shall not have the shame of disappointment, nor flee in sudden panic (see Isaiah 30:15; Isaiah 32:17). |
Isaiah 28:16
Therefore — Because your refuges are so vain, and deceitful; therefore I will direct you to a surer refuge, which God hath laid in Zion. But if you despise that refuge; then know, that I will lay judgment to the line, &c. I lay — I have promised it, and will, in the fulness of time, perform it. In Zion — In my church. A foundation — Upon which I will build my church. A stone — The Messiah. Tried — Which I have tried, and approved as every way sufficient. Corner — stone — Uniting the several parts of the building together. Sure — Upon whom you may securely rest. Believeth — This promise. Shall not — Hastily catch at any way of escaping danger, but shall patiently wait upon God in his way, 'till he deliver him. |
Isaiah 28:16
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a (r) tried stone, a precious corner [stone], a sure foundation: he that believeth (s) shall not make haste.
(r) That is, Christ, by whom all the building must be tried and upheld, (Psalms 118:22; Matthew 21:42; Acts 4:11; Romans 9:33; 1 Peter 2:6).
(s) He will be quiet, and seek no other remedies, but be content with Christ. |
