I would go through them, I would burn them together.* 5 Or let him take hold of my strength, *that* he may make peace with me; *and* he shall make peace with me. 6 He shall cause them that come of Jacob to take root: Israel shall blossom and bud, and fill the face of the world with fruit. 7 ¶ Hath he smitten him, as he smote those that smote him? *or* is he slain according to the slaughter of them that are slain by him?* 8 In measure, when it shooteth forth, thou wilt debate with it: he stayeth his rough wind in the day of the east wind.** 9 By this therefore shall the iniquity of Jacob be purged; and this *is* all the fruit to take away his sin; when he maketh all the stones of the altar as chalkstones that are beaten in sunder, the groves and images shall not stand up.* 10 Yet the defenced city *shall be* desolate, *and* the habitation forsaken, and left like a wilderness: there shall the calf feed, and there shall he lie down, and consume the branches thereof. 11 When the boughs thereof are withered, they shall be broken off: the women come, *and* set them on fire: for it *is* a people of no understanding: therefore he that made them will not have mercy on them, and he that formed them will shew them no favour. 12 ¶ And it shall come to pass in that day, *that* the LORD shall beat off from the channel of the river unto the stream of Egypt, and ye shall be gathered one by one, O ye children of Israel. 13 And it shall come to pass in that day, *that* the great trumpet shall be blown, and they shall come which were ready to perish in the land of Assyria, and the outcasts in the land of Egypt, and shall worship the LORD in the holy mount at Jerusalem. [Isaiah 26](/study/isaiah/26) [Isaiah 28](/study/isaiah/28) ## Commentary To verse 1 ***[Isaiah 27:1](/kjv/isaiah/27/1)*****.*****In that day,*****&c.—** *In that day shall Jehovah punish with his sword;* *his well-tempered, and great, and strong sword; Leviathan the rigid* *serpent, and Leviathan the winding serpent: and shall slay the monster, that is in the sea.*Lowth. This prophesy may be connected either with the last verse of the preceding chapter, and that *day,*or *time,*refer to the time of *indignation*there spoken of; or you may connect it with the latter end of the 24th chapter, and particularly the 21st verse; for the destruction of the kings of the earth there mentioned, is the same with that of the animals in the present verse. There are three distinct creatures here spoken of: By the *leviathan, rigid*or *straight serpent,*the *crocodile*seems to be meant; by the *winding serpent,*the *dragon,*or large African serpent; and by the *monster in the sea,*most probably the *whale.*Vitringa thinks, that by the two first of these creatures are signified the kingdoms of Egypt and Assyria, as they existed after the times of Alexander the Great; and by the *whale*the kingdom of Arabia, and the other neighbouring nations, which were adversaries to the people of God; or that by these three animals are to be understood the persecutors and adversaries of the church, who should exist successively in the world, and be destroyed by the divine judgments.
