Isaiah 33
1. God's judgments against the enemies of the church
13. The consternation of sinners, and privileges of the godly














Now I will arise
This phrase marks a pivotal moment where God declares His intention to take action. The Hebrew word for "arise" is "קוּם" (qum), which conveys the idea of standing up or taking a stand. In the context of Isaiah, this is a divine intervention where God is preparing to act decisively against the enemies of His people. Historically, this reflects God's readiness to deliver Israel from their oppressors, a theme consistent throughout the Old Testament where God rises to defend His covenant people.

says the LORD
The use of "LORD" in all caps indicates the Hebrew name "YHWH" (Yahweh), the personal and covenantal name of God. This emphasizes the authority and faithfulness of God in His promises. In the conservative Christian perspective, this underscores the reliability of God's word and His unchanging nature. The declaration is not just a statement but a promise from the eternal, self-existent One who is intimately involved in the affairs of His people.

Now I will lift Myself up
The phrase "lift Myself up" uses the Hebrew word "נִשָּׂא" (nasa), which means to lift, carry, or exalt. This suggests that God is not only rising to action but is also elevating His presence and power in a way that will be unmistakable to all. In the historical context, this can be seen as God preparing to demonstrate His supremacy over the nations and false gods. For believers, it is a reminder of God's sovereignty and His ability to exalt Himself above all earthly powers.

Now I will be exalted
The repetition of "now" in this verse emphasizes the immediacy and certainty of God's action. The Hebrew word for "exalted" is "רוּם" (rum), which means to be high or lofty. This is a declaration of God's ultimate authority and glory. In the scriptural context, it points to the inevitable triumph of God's purposes. For Christians, it is a foreshadowing of the ultimate exaltation of Christ, who is lifted up as King of Kings and Lord of Lords. This serves as an encouragement that God's plans will prevail, and His glory will be revealed to all.

(10) Now will I rise . . .--We note the emphatic iteration of the adverb of time. Man's necessity was, as ever, to be God's opportunity. He had been, as it were, waiting for this crisis, and would at once arise in His might.

Verse 10. - Now will I rise. Judah's extremity is Jehovah's opportunity. "Now" at length the time is come for God to show himself, tic will rise from his throne, and actively display his power; he will exalt himself above the heathen - lift himself up above the nations.
