I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save.* 2 Wherefore *art thou* red in thine apparel, and thy garments like him that treadeth in the winefat? 3 I have trodden the winepress alone; and of the people *there was* none with me: for I will tread them in mine anger, and trample them in my fury; and their blood shall be sprinkled upon my garments, and I will stain all my raiment. 4 For the day of vengeance *is* in mine heart, and the year of my redeemed is come. 5 And I looked, and *there was* none to help; and I wondered that *there was* none to uphold: therefore mine own arm brought salvation unto me; and my fury, it upheld me. 6 And I will tread down the people in mine anger, and make them drunk in my fury, and I will bring down their strength to the earth. 7 ¶ I will mention the lovingkindnesses of the LORD, *and* the praises of the LORD, according to all that the LORD hath bestowed on us, and the great goodness toward the house of Israel, which he hath bestowed on them according to his mercies, and according to the multitude of his lovingkindnesses. 8 For he said, Surely they *are* my people, children *that* will not lie: so he was their Saviour. 9 In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his presence saved them: in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and he bare them, and carried them all the days of old. 10 ¶ But they rebelled, and vexed his holy Spirit: therefore he was turned to be their enemy, *and* he fought against them. 11 Then he remembered the days of old, Moses, *and* his people, *saying*, Where *is* he that brought them up out of the sea with the shepherd of his flock? where *is* he that put his holy Spirit within him?* 12 That led *them* by the right hand of Moses with his glorious arm, dividing the water before them, to make himself an everlasting name? 13 That led them through the deep, as an horse in the wilderness, *that* they should not stumble? 14 As a beast goeth down into the valley, the Spirit of the LORD caused him to rest: so didst thou lead thy people, to make thyself a glorious name. 15 ¶ Look down from heaven, and behold from the habitation of thy holiness and of thy glory: where *is* thy zeal and thy strength, the sounding of thy bowels and of thy mercies toward me? are they restrained?* 16 Doubtless thou *art* our father, though Abraham be ignorant of us, and Israel acknowledge us not: thou, O LORD, *art* our father, our redeemer; thy name *is* from everlasting.* 17 ¶ O LORD, why hast thou made us to err from thy ways, *and* hardened our heart from thy fear? Return for thy servants’ sake, the tribes of thine inheritance. 18 The people of thy holiness have possessed *it* but a little while: our adversaries have trodden down thy sanctuary. 19 We are *thine:* thou never barest rule over them; they were not called by thy name.* [Isaiah 62](/study/isaiah/62) [Isaiah 64](/study/isaiah/64) ## Commentary To verse 1 ***[Isaiah 63:1](/kjv/isaiah/63/1)*****.*****Who is this,*****&c.—** Or, *Who is this that cometh from Edom, with purple garments from Bozrah? This, who is solemn,*or *venerable in his attire, marching on in the greatness of his strength? I that speak of deliverance,*[*doing right,*] *mighty to save.*See chap. [Isaiah 34:5-6](/kjv/isaiah/34/5-6). The Idumeans joined with the enemies of the Jews in bringing on the destruction of Jerusalem in the time of the captivity, for which they were severely reproved by the prophets, and threatened with utter destruction, which accordingly came to pass: the prophets, therefore, generally apply the names of these people to signify any inveterate and cruel enemy, as in this place; but the words *Edom*and *Bozrah*may be taken in the appellative sense, to denote in general a *field of blood,*or *a place of slaughter;*the word *Edom*signifying *red,*and *Bozrah,*a *vintage,*according to some; which in the prophetical idiom, import God's vengeance upon the wicked. The Messiah is said to be *solemn*or *venerable in his attire;*that is to say, like a general marching at the head of his army, and carrying the token of victory on his raiment; or, according to others, clothed in such a manner as to command reverence and respect. The frequent transitions from one person to another, observed in the Hebrew poetry, is a strong indication of a mind hurried away by the impulse of inspiration; and sometimes, as in the present case, is as strong a mark of a dramatic form of composition.
