1. God calls Cyrus for his church's sake
5. By his omnipotence he challenges obedience
20. He convinces the idols of vanity by his saving power














Turn to Me
The Hebrew word for "turn" is "פְּנוּ" (penu), which implies a deliberate action of changing direction or focus. In the context of Isaiah, this is a call to repentance and a conscious decision to redirect one's life towards God. Historically, this reflects the prophetic tradition of calling Israel back to faithfulness, but here it extends to all nations, emphasizing the universal scope of God's salvation.

and be saved
The Hebrew root for "saved" is "יָשַׁע" (yasha), which means to deliver or to rescue. This salvation is not merely physical but spiritual, offering deliverance from sin and its consequences. In the broader biblical narrative, this points to the ultimate salvation through Jesus Christ, who fulfills the prophecies of the Old Testament.

all the ends of the earth
This phrase underscores the inclusivity of God's invitation. "Ends of the earth" suggests the farthest reaches of the known world, indicating that God's salvation is not limited to Israel but is available to all humanity. This reflects the Abrahamic promise that through his descendants, all nations would be blessed (Genesis 12:3).

for I am God
The declaration "I am God" is a profound assertion of Yahweh's identity and sovereignty. The Hebrew word "אֲנִי" (ani) for "I" emphasizes the personal nature of God, while "אֱלֹהִים" (Elohim) denotes His power and authority. This statement reaffirms the monotheistic foundation of Israel's faith, distinguishing Yahweh from the idols of surrounding nations.

and there is no other
This phrase reinforces the exclusivity of God, echoing the Shema in Deuteronomy 6:4, "Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one." It is a direct challenge to the polytheistic beliefs of the time, asserting that salvation and truth are found in Yahweh alone. This exclusivity is central to the Christian faith, which holds that Jesus is the only way to the Father (John 14:6).

Verse 22. - Look unto me; rather, turn unto me (as in Psalm 25:16; Psalm 69:16; Psalm 86:16); i.e., "Be converted - turn unto the Lord your God." It is implied that all can turn, if they will. And be ye saved. On conversion, salvation will follow. It will extend even to all the ends of the earth (comp. Psalm 98:3, "All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God").
