Isa. 33:1 Ah. See note on 28:1. destroyer . . . traitor. Unscrupulous, successful Assyria.
Isa. 33:2 This verse expresses the trust in God that Isaiah is calling for.
Isa. 33:3–4 when you. That is, God. your spoil. That is, the goods taken after the defeat of the “destroyer” nations; they are collected by God’s people, who benefit from his final victory (see Ex. 3:21–22; Isa. 9:3; 11:14; 33:23).
Isa. 33:5–6 stability. This confidence lies at the heart of Isaiah’s message. Zion’s treasure, unlike the treasures that were taken by enemies (v. 4), is an endless resource (see Ps. 31:19).
Isa. 33:7 Their heroes are Judah’s soldiers. The envoys are their diplomats (see 36:22).
Isa. 33:10 Now . . . now . . . now. God has waited, seemingly inactive. Now that his people respond to his grace (v. 2), his kingdom comes.
Isa. 33:11–12 God dooms Assyria’s plan against Judah, repeating the prophecy of v. 1.
Isa. 33:13–14 You who are far off are the godless, and you who are near are sinners in Zion. God’s people, though called to share his holiness, must admit their own unholiness (see 6:1–7).
Isa. 33:15 Isaiah emphasizes the transforming power of God’s grace.
Isa. 33:16 To dwell on the heights is to be near God (v. 5).
Isa. 33:17 the king in his beauty. See vv. 21–22.
Isa. 33:20 God’s people are secured forever in their perfect home, reversing the distress of vv. 7–9 (see 4:5; 32:17–18).
Isa. 33:21 broad rivers and streams. Abundant provision (see 41:18). where no galley with oars can go. No attack is possible by sea, matching the secure land in 33:17.
Isa. 33:22 the Lord . . . the Lord . . . the Lord . . . he. The redeemed finally attribute all of their happiness to their all-sufficient Lord alone.
Isa. 33:23–24 Currently God’s people are like a drifting ship. But then, even the lame will take the prey (even the weak will become successful hunters). God’s sin-sick people will be forgiven their iniquity (see 53:4–6).
