Now God ^H430 had brought ^H5414 Daniel ^H1840 into favour ^H2617 and tender love ^H7356 with ^H6440 the prince ^H8269 of the eunuchs. ^H5631 And the prince ^H8269 of the eunuchs ^H5631 said ^H559 unto Daniel, ^H1840 I fear ^H3373 my lord ^H113 the king, ^H4428 who hath appointed ^H4487 your meat ^H3978 and your drink: ^H4960 for why should he see ^H7200 your faces ^H6440 worse liking ^H2196 than the children ^H3206 which are of your sort? ^H1524 then shall ye make me endanger ^H2325 my head ^H7218 to the king. ^H4428 Then said ^H559 Daniel ^H1840 to Melzar, ^H4453 whom the prince ^H8269 of the eunuchs ^H5631 had set ^H4487 over Daniel, ^H1840 Hananiah, ^H2608 Mishael, ^H4332 and Azariah, ^H5838 Prove ^H5254 thy servants, ^H5650 I beseech thee, ten ^H6235 days; ^H3117 and let them give ^H5414 us pulse ^H2235 to eat, ^H398 and water ^H4325 to drink. ^H8354 Then let our countenances ^H4758 be looked upon ^H7200 before ^H6440 thee, and the countenance ^H4758 of the children ^H3206 that eat ^H398 of the portion ^H6598 of the king's ^H4428 meat: ^H6598 and as thou seest, ^H7200 deal ^H6213 with thy servants. ^H5650 So he consented ^H8085 to them in this matter, ^H1697 and proved ^H5254 them ten ^H6235 days. ^H3117 And at the end ^H7117 of ten ^H6235 days ^H3117 their countenances ^H4758 appeared ^H7200 fairer ^H2896 and fatter ^H1277 in flesh ^H1320 than all the children ^H3206 which did eat ^H398 the portion ^H6598 of the king's ^H4428 meat. ^H6598 Thus Melzar ^H4453 took away ^H5375 the portion of their meat, ^H6598 and the wine ^H3196 that they should drink; ^H4960 and gave ^H5414 them pulse. ^H2235 As for these four ^H702 children, ^H3206 God ^H430 gave ^H5414 them knowledge ^H4093 and skill ^H7919 in all learning ^H5612 and wisdom: ^H2451 and Daniel ^H1840 had understanding ^H995 in all visions ^H2377 and dreams. ^H2472 Now at the end ^H7117 of the days ^H3117 that the king ^H4428 had said ^H559 he should bring ^H935 them in, then the prince ^H8269 of the eunuchs ^H5631 brought ^H935 them in before ^H6440 Nebuchadnezzar. ^H5019 And the king ^H4428 communed ^H1696 with them; and among them all was found ^H4672 none like Daniel, ^H1840 Hananiah, ^H2608 Mishael, ^H4332 and Azariah: ^H5838 therefore stood ^H5975 they before ^H6440 the king. ^H4428 And in all matters ^H1697 of wisdom ^H2451 and understanding, ^H998 that the king ^H4428 enquired ^H1245 of them, he found ^H4672 them ten times ^H6235 better ^H3027 than all the magicians ^H2748 and astrologers ^H825 that were in all his realm. ^H4438 And Daniel ^H1840 continued even unto the first ^H259 year ^H8141 of king ^H4428 Cyrus. ^H3566

Commentary on Isaiah 56 Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Matthew Henry John Gill Keil & Delitzsch

CHAPTER 56

Isa 56:1-12. The Preparation Needed on the Part of Those Who Wish to Be Admitted to the Kingdom of God.

1. judgment—equity. John the Baptist preached similarly a return to righteousness, as needed to prepare men for Messiah's first coming (Lu 3:3, 8-14). So it shall be before the second coming (Mal 4:4-6).

near to come—(Mt 3:2; 4:17), also as to the second coming (Isa 62:10, 11; Lu 21:28, 31; Ro 13:11, 12; Heb 10:25).

righteousness—answering to "salvation" in the parallel clause; therefore it means righteousness which bringeth salvation (Isa 46:13; Ro 3:25, 26).

2. (Lu 12:43).

the man—Hebrew, enosh, "a man in humble life," in contradistinction to Hebrew, ish, "one of high rank." Even the humblest, as "the stranger" and "the eunuch" (Isa 56:4, 6), are admissible to these privileges.

this … it—what follows: "keeping the Sabbath," &c. (Isa 58:13, 14; Eze 20:12). A proof that the Sabbath, in the spirit of its obligation, was to be binding under the Gospel (Isa 66:23). That gospel times are referred to is plain, from the blessing not being pronounced on the man who observed the sacrificial ritual of the Jewish law.

layeth hold—image from one grasping firmly some precious object which he is afraid of having forcibly snatched from him. The "Sabbath" here includes all the ordinances of divine worship under the new gospel law.

keepeth … hand … from … evil—The observance of the second table of the law; as the "Sabbath" referred to the first table. Together, they form the whole duty of man, the worship of God and a holy life.

3. God welcomes all believers, without distinction of persons, under the new economy (Ac 10:34, 35).

joined … to … Lord—(Nu 18:4, 7). "Proselytes."

separated—Proselytes from the Gentiles were not admitted to the same privileges as native Israelites. This barrier between Jews and Gentiles was to be broken down (Eph 2:14-16).

eunuch—(Ac 8:27, &c.). Eunuchs were chamberlains over harems, or court ministers in general.

dry tree—barren (compare Lu 23:31); not admissible into the congregation of Israel (De 23:1-3). Under the Gospel the eunuch and stranger should be released from religious and civil disabilities.

4. please me—sacrifice their own pleasure to mine.

take hold—so "layeth hold" (see on Isa 56:2).

5. in mine house—the temple, the emblem of the Church (1Ti 3:15). They shall no longer be confined as proselytes were, to the outer court, but shall be admitted "into the holiest" (Heb 10:19, 20).

a place—literally, "a hand."

than of sons—Though the eunuch is barren of children (Isa 56:3), I will give him a more lasting name than that of being father of sons and daughters (regarded as a high honor among the Hebrews) (Joh 1:12; 10:3; 1Jo 3:1; Re 2:17; 3:12).

6. join … Lord—(Jer 50:6). Conditions of admission to the privileges of adoption.

7. Even them—(Eph 2:11-13).

to my holy mountain—Jerusalem, the seat of the Lord's throne in His coming kingdom (Isa 2:2; Jer 3:17).

joyful—(Ro 5:11).

burnt offerings … sacrifices—spiritual, of which the literal were types (Ro 12:1; Heb 13:15; 1Pe 2:5).

accepted—(Eph 1:6).

altar—(Heb 13:10), spiritually, the Cross of Christ, which sanctifies our sacrifices of prayer and praise.

house … for all people—or rather, "peoples." No longer restricted to one favored people (Mal 1:11; Joh 4:21, 23; 1Ti 2:8). To be fully realized at the second coming (Isa 2:2-4). No longer literal, but spiritual sacrifice, namely, "prayer" shall be offered (Ps 141:2; 51:17; Mal 1:11; Mt 21:13).

8. Jehovah will not only restore the scattered outcasts of Israel (Isa 11:12; Ps 147:2) to their own land, but "will gather others ('strangers') to him (Israel), besides those gathered" (Margin, "to his gathered"; that is, in addition to the Israelites collected from their dispersion), (Joh 10:16; Eph 1:10; 2:19).

9. beasts—Gentile idolatrous nations hostile to the Jews, summoned by God to chastise them (Jer 12:7-9; 50:17; Eze 34:5): the Chaldeans and subsequently the Romans. The mention of the "outcasts of Israel" (Isa 56:8) brings in view the outcasting, caused by the sins of their rulers (Isa 56:10-12).

to devour—namely, Israel.

10. His watchmen—Israel's spiritual leaders (Isa 62:6; Eze 3:17).

dumb dogs—image from bad shepherds' watchdogs, which fail to give notice, by barking, of the approach of wild beasts.

blind—(Mt 23:16).

sleeping, lying down—rather, "dreamers, sluggards" [Lowth]. Not merely sleeping inactive, but under visionary delusions.

loving to slumber—not merely slumbering involuntarily, but loving it.

11. greedy—literally, "strong" (that is, insatiable) in appetite (Eze 34:2, 3; Mic 3:11).

cannot understand—unable to comprehend the wants of the people, spiritually: so Isa 56:10, "cannot bark."

look to … own way—that is, their own selfish interests; not to the spiritual welfare of the people (Jer 6:13; Eze 22:27).

from his quarter—rather, "from the highest to the lowest" [Lowth]. "From his quarter"; that is, from one end to the other of them, one and all (Ge 19:4).

12. fetch wine—language of the national teachers challenging one another to drink. Barnes translates, "I will take another cup" (Isa 5:11).

to-morrow, &c.—Their self-indulgence was habitual and intentional: not merely they drink, but they mean to continue so.
