Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Isaiah 30:23

_ _ rain of — rather, “for thy seed.” Physical prosperity accompanies national piety; especially under the Old Testament. The early rain fell soon after the seed was sown in October or November; the latter rain in the spring, before the ripening of the corn. Both were needed for a good harvest.

_ _ increase — the produce.

_ _ fat — bread made of the best wheat flour (compare Genesis 49:20; Deuteronomy 32:14).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Isaiah 30:18-26.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Isaiah 30:23

Bread — Which shall be the fruit of thy own land and labour: and excellent for quality, which is called, fat, Deuteronomy 32:14, and abundant for quantity.
