Isaiah 27
1. The Deliverance of Israel














In that day
This phrase often signals a prophetic vision concerning the future, particularly the eschatological "Day of the Lord." In the Hebrew context, "that day" refers to a time when God will intervene decisively in human history. It is a day of both judgment and salvation, a theme prevalent throughout the book of Isaiah. This phrase sets the stage for a divine action that will bring about a significant transformation.

a great trumpet will sound
The sounding of a trumpet in biblical times was a call to action, often used to gather people, signal war, or announce significant events. The Hebrew word for trumpet, "shofar," was made from a ram's horn and held deep religious significance. In this context, the great trumpet symbolizes a divine summons, a call to gather God's people from the ends of the earth. It echoes the imagery found in the New Testament, where the trumpet is associated with the return of Christ and the resurrection of the dead (1 Thessalonians 4:16).

those who were perishing in Assyria
Assyria was a dominant empire during Isaiah's time, known for its military might and oppression of Israel. The phrase "those who were perishing" refers to the Israelites who were exiled and suffering under Assyrian rule. Historically, the Assyrian captivity was a period of great distress for the Israelites, and this prophecy offers hope of deliverance and restoration for those who were scattered and oppressed.

and those who were exiled in Egypt
Egypt, like Assyria, was a place of bondage for the Israelites, harking back to the time of the Exodus. The mention of Egypt here symbolizes a return from exile and a release from captivity. It reflects God's promise to gather His people from all places of dispersion, emphasizing His sovereignty and faithfulness in fulfilling His covenant promises.

will come and worship the LORD
The ultimate purpose of the gathering is worship. Worship is central to the relationship between God and His people. This phrase highlights the restoration not just of physical presence in the land but of spiritual communion with God. It signifies a return to true worship, where the people acknowledge God's lordship and offer Him the reverence due to His name.

on the holy mountain in Jerusalem
Jerusalem, and specifically the holy mountain, refers to Mount Zion, the spiritual and political center of Israel. It is the place where the temple stood, symbolizing God's presence among His people. The prophecy envisions a time when all God's people will be gathered to worship Him in Jerusalem, fulfilling the promises of restoration and peace. This imagery points forward to the ultimate fulfillment in the New Jerusalem, as described in Revelation, where God's people will dwell with Him eternally.

(13) The great trumpet shall be blown . . .--The symbolism had a probable origin in the silver trumpets which were used in the journeys of the Israelites "for the calling of the assembly and for the journeying of the camps" (Numbers 10:1-10), and which were solemnly blown in the year of Jubilee on the eve of the Day of Atonement (Leviticus 25:9). It re-appears in the Apocalyptic eschatology of Matthew 24:31; 1Corinthians 15:52; 1Thessalonians 4:16, standing there, as here, for any great event that heralds the fulfilment of a Divine purpose. That purpose, in this instance, is the proclamation of the Year of Redemption, the restoration of the dispersed of Israel from the countries of their exile, of which, as in Isaiah 11:11; Isaiah 19:23, Assyria and Egypt are the two chief representatives. (Comp. Zephaniah 3:10.) . . . Verse 13. - The great trumpet shall be blown; rather, a great trumpet (comp. Matthew 24:31; 1 Corinthians 15:52; 1 Thessalonians 4:16). This imagery, and the return of the Israelites from Egypt and Assyria, point rather to the final gathering of Israel into the Church triumphant than to the return from the Babylonian captivity. Egypt and Assyria were certainly not the countries from which they came chiefly at that time. But they are the countries from which they will chiefly come when Jehovah "sets his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people" (Isaiah 11:11). The outcasts (comp. Isaiah 11:12).
