Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Isaiah 65:20

_ _ The longevity of men in the first age of the world shall be enjoyed again.

_ _ thence — from that time forward.

_ _ infant of days — that is, an infant who shall only complete a few days; short-lived.

_ _ filled ... days — None shall die without attaining a full old age.

_ _ child ... die ... hundred years — that is, “he that dieth an hundred years old shall die a mere child” [Lowth].

_ _ sinner ... hundred ... be accursed — “The sinner that dieth at an hundred years shall be deemed accursed,” that is, his death at so early an age, which in those days the hundredth year will be regarded, just as if it were mere childhood, shall be deemed the effect of God’s special visitation in wrath [Rosenmuller]. This passage proves that the better age to come on earth, though much superior to the present will not be a perfect state; sin and death shall have place in it (compare Revelation 20:7, Revelation 20:8), but much less frequently than now.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Isaiah 65:17-25.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Isaiah 65:20

An infant — Those that were now children, shall die at a great age. But — Yet none of these things shall be of any advantage to wicked men, but if any of them shall live to be an hundred years old, yet they shall die accursed.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Isaiah 65:20

There shall be no more from there an infant of days, nor an old man that hath (z) not filled his days: for the child shall die an hundred years old; but the sinner [being] (a) an hundred years old shall be accursed.

(z) Meaning, in this wonderful restoration of the Church there would be no weakness of youth, nor infirmities of age, but all would be fresh and flourishing: and this is accomplished in the heavenly Jerusalem, when all sins will cease, and the tears will be wiped away.

(a) By which he shows that the infidels and unrepentant sinners have no part of this benediction.
