Then said I, Here *am* I; send me.* 9 ¶ And he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not.* 10 Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed. 11 Then said I, Lord, how long? And he answered, Until the cities be wasted without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land be utterly desolate,* 12 And the LORD have removed men far away, and *there be* a great forsaking in the midst of the land. 13 ¶ But yet in it *shall be* a tenth, and *it* shall return, and shall be eaten: as a teil tree, and as an oak, whose substance *is* in them, when they cast *their leaves: so* the holy seed *shall be* the substance thereof.** [Isaiah 5](/study/isaiah/5) [Isaiah 7](/study/isaiah/7) ## Commentary To verse 1 [Isa 6:1](/kjv/isa/6/1) In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple. Ver. 1. **In the year that Uzziah died.** ] This was 1590 years from Noah’s flood, say chronologers, where one *a* well observeth how divers things were done in this year within the Church, and without. The Gentiles in Greece, at the town of Eleum, behold their Olympic games; the prophet Isaiah in Judea beholdeth the glory of God, and heareth the *trisagion* of the blessed angels. So in the year of grace 1617 the Pope proclaimed a jubilee for the peace of Italy and Austria, &c. The Reformed Churches in Germany kept a jubilee likewise at the same time, in way of thankfulness to God for the gospel restored just a hundred years before by Luther, Zuinglius, and other reformers. *b* **** **I saw also,** ] *sc.,* *In spiritu et in ecstasi,* In spirit and in a rapture. Some compare it with that vision which Ezekiel saw afterwards.[Eze 1:4-28](/kjv/-eze/1/4-28) This whole book is called ‘the vision of Isaiah’;[Isa 1:1](/kjv/-isa/1/1) and why? *See Trapp on "*[Isa 1:1](/kjv/-isa/1/1) *"* *Est autem celeberrima haec prophetia,* but this is a most famous prophecy of the utter excaecation and excision of the Jews; and is alleged against them by all the four evangelists, and by St Paul.[Rom 11:8](/kjv/-rom/11/8) **** **The Lord.** ] The Three in One, and One in Three: [Isaiah 6:8](/kjv/isaiah/6/8) , "Who shall go for us?" Compare [Genesis 1:26](/kjv/genesis/1/26) ; [Genesis 3:22](/kjv/genesis/3/22) . See [John 12:41](/kjv/john/12/41) , where it is applied to God the Son; and [Acts 5:3-4](/kjv/acts/5/3-4) , where to God the Holy Ghost. This Lord of all was seen by the prophet, not in his essence, or in the infinite excellence of his majesty, [Exodus 33:20](/kjv/exodus/33/20) **[1Ti 6:16](/kjv/-1ti/6/16) but in some visible model of his glory; like as we cannot see the sun *in rota,* but *in radiis,* in the body of it, but in the beams only. **** **Sitting upon a throne.** ] *Instar iudicis et vindicis,* as a just judge and sharp revenger of this people’s rebellions; and this throne is in the temple too, the place wherein they most of all trusted, crying, "The temple of the Lord, the temple of the Lord."[Jer 7:4](/kjv/-jer/7/4) Lo, here they were to be sentenced, because they had cast away the law of the Lord of hosts, and despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.[Isa 5:24](/kjv/-isa/5/24) **** **High and lifted up.** ] Stately for sight, and lofty for site, as was Solomon’s. [1 Kings 10:18](/kjv/1-kings/10/18) *;*[1Ki 10:20](/kjv/-1ki/10/20) **** **And his train filled the temple.** ] His train, or his skirts *c* - viz., of his robes. The Sept. and Chaldee have it, "The house was full of his glory." The sense is, saith Oecolampadius, that the least part of the divine majesty is greater than the greatest glory of men. *as*[1Co 1:25](/kjv/-1co/1/25) "He hath upon his vesture and on his thigh this name written, King of kings, and Lord of lords."[Rev 19:16](/kjv/-rev/19/16) Here we can see but his back parts, his train and line. We need see no more that we may live. Zeuxis, the famous painter, drew in a table a fair temple with the doors open, and Venus going in, so as the beholders could behold but her back and her train, as not able to depaint her fair face and fore parts. *a* Ussher *b* Jac. Rev. *Hist. Pontif. Rom.,* p. 306. *c* Sirmata. ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#website","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com","name":"Real Bible Believers","description":"RBB","publisher":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#/schema/person/e966585dde703268e7f6ae890ea98509"},"potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/search?q={search_term_string}","query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}],"inLanguage":"en-US"},{"@type":"ImageObject","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/trapps-complete-commentary/isaiah/6#primaryimage","inLanguage":"en-US","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/_app/immutable/assets/missing.C7wGMEZ6.jpg","contentUrl":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/_app/immutable/assets/missing.C7wGMEZ6.jpg","width":672,"height":448,"caption":"Real Bible Believers"},{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/trapps-complete-commentary/isaiah/6#webpage","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/trapps-complete-commentary/isaiah/6","name":"Isaiah 6 - Study King James Bible with trapps complete commentary","isPartOf":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#website"},"primaryImageOfPage":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/trapps-complete-commentary/isaiah/6#primaryimage"},"author":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#/schema/person/e966585dde703268e7f6ae890ea98509"},"description":"Read Isaiah 6 with trapps complete commentary commentary. 1 In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple. 2 Above it stood the s","breadcrumb":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/trapps-complete-commentary/isaiah/6#breadcrumb"},"inLanguage":"en-US","potentialAction":[{"@type":"ReadAction","target":["https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/trapps-complete-commentary/isaiah/6"]}]},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/trapps-complete-commentary/isaiah/6#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/","name":"Home"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study","name":"Study Bible"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/trapps-complete-commentary","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/trapps-complete-commentary","name":"trapps complete commentary"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":4,"item":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/trapps-complete-commentary/isaiah","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/trapps-complete-commentary/isaiah","name":"Isaiah"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":5,"item":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/trapps-complete-commentary/isaiah/6","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/trapps-complete-commentary/isaiah/6","name":"6"}}]},{"@type":["Person","Organization"],"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#/schema/person/e966585dde703268e7f6ae890ea98509","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#personlogo","inLanguage":"en-US","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/android-chrome-512x512.png","contentUrl":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/android-chrome-512x512.png","width":512,"height":512},"logo":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#personlogo"},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/RBiblebeliever","https://www.facebook.com/RBibleBelievers"]}]} ```
