Isaiah 33:20
_ _ solemnities — solemn assemblies at the great feasts (see on Isaiah 30:29; see on Psalms 42:4; see on Psalms 48:12).
_ _ not ... taken down ... removed — image from captives “removed” from their land (Isaiah 36:17). There shall be no more “taking away” to an enemy’s land. Or else, from nomads living in shifting tents. The saints, who sojourned once in tabernacles as pilgrims, shall have a “building of God — eternal in the heavens” (2 Corinthians 5:1; Hebrews 11:9, Hebrews 11:10; compare Isaiah 54:2).
_ _ stakes — driven into the ground; to these the “cords” were fastened. Christ’s Church shall never fall (Matthew 16:18). So individual believers (Revelation 3:12). |
Isaiah 33:20
Look upon — Contemplate Zion's glorious and peculiar privileges. Solemnities — This was the chief part of Zion's glory, that God was solemnly worshipped, and the solemn assemblies and feasts kept in her. Quiet — This was but imperfectly fulfilled in the literal Zion; but clearly and fully in the mystical Zion, the church of God, in the times of the gospel. |
- Look:
Psalms 48:12-13 Walk about Zion, and go round about her: tell the towers thereof. ... Mark ye well her bulwarks, consider her palaces; that ye may tell [it] to the generation following.
|
- the city:
Deuteronomy 12:5 But unto the place which the LORD your God shall choose out of all your tribes to put his name there, [even] unto his habitation shall ye seek, and thither thou shalt come:
Psalms 78:68-69 But chose the tribe of Judah, the mount Zion which he loved. ... And he built his sanctuary like high [palaces], like the earth which he hath established for ever.
|
- thine eyes:
Psalms 46:5 God [is] in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, [and that] right early.
Psalms 125:1 [[A Song of degrees.]] They that trust in the LORD [shall be] as mount Zion, [which] cannot be removed, [but] abideth for ever.
Psalms 128:5 The LORD shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.
|
- not one:
Isaiah 37:33 Therefore thus saith the LORD concerning the king of Assyria, He shall not come into this city, nor shoot an arrow there, nor come before it with shields, nor cast a bank against it.
Isaiah 54:2 Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes;
Ezekiel 48:35 [It was] round about eighteen thousand [measures]: and the name of the city from [that] day [shall be], The LORD [is] there.
Matthew 16:18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
Revelation 3:12 Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, [which is] new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and [I will write upon him] my new name.
