 1 Who *is* this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? this *that is* glorious in his apparel, travelling in the greatness of his strength? 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.*

## Commentary

 To verse 1
 
[Isa 63:1](/kjv/isa/63/1) Who [is] this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? this [that is] glorious in his apparel, travelling in the greatness of his strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save. 

Ver. 1. **Who is this that cometh from Edom?** ] It had been said, in [Isaiah 62:11](/kjv/isaiah/62/11) , "Behold, thy salvation (thy Saviour) cometh." Here, therefore, by an elegant *hypotyposis,* *a* the Sionidae, or saints, are brought in wondering at his coming in such a garb, and asking, Who is this? What gallant conqueror have we here? Edom, or Idumaea, signifieth red; Bozrah, (the chief city of Idumaea), a vintage. *compare*[Isa 63:2](/kjv/-isa/63/2) It may very well be also that this prophecy was uttered in vintage time, and therehence haply might grow the comparison here used. John the divine, representing to us Christ’s coming to judgment, useth the same simile.[Rev 19:13](/kjv/-rev/19/13) Some also of good note, do understand this prophecy of Christ’s triumphing over all his and our enemies (the Romish Edomites especially), at the last day. 

**** 

**With dyed garments.** ] Heb., Leavened, *i.e.,* drenched, *b* besmeared. 

**** 

**This that is glorious in his apparel.** ] Which is the more glorious, because laced or embroidered with the blood of his enemies. 

**** 

**Walking in the greatness of his strength.** ] *Fortiter grassans,* walking and stalking, going in state, *gressu grallatorio,* emperor like, so as Epaminondas marched before his army; which, when Agesilaus, king of Spartans beheld, he cried out, *O virum magnificum!* *c* O that is a gallant man! "Ye shall see the Son of man coming with great power!" saith Christ. 

**** 

**I that speak in righteousness.** ] Christ’s answer, *q.d.,* " Fear not, little flock"; this strange garb and gait of mine portendeth no hurt but good to you; to whom whatsoever I have faithfully promised, I will powerfully perform. As King of Zion, I will 

“ *Parcere subiectis et debellare superbos.* ” 

At the last day also I will "come to be glorified in my saints, and to be admired in all them that believe."[2Th 1:10](/kjv/-2th/1/10) See [Revelation 19:11](/kjv/revelation/19/11) . 

**** 

**Mighty to save.** ] *Suficiens ad salvandum, sive Magister ad salvandum,* a Master to save. This those lepers had learned, and therefore cried, "Jesus, Master, have mercy on us."[Luk 17:13](/kjv/-luk/17/13) 

*a* Vivid description of a scene, event, or situation, bringing it, as it were, before the eyes of the hearer or reader. 

*b* Metaph. *a massa conspersa.* 

*c* Plutarch. in *Epam.*
