And complaint, professes her faith I trampled the nations in My anger This phrase begins with a vivid image of divine judgment. The Hebrew word for "trampled" is "בָּסַס" (basas), which conveys a sense of crushing or treading down with force. This imagery is often used in the context of a winepress, where grapes are crushed to extract juice, symbolizing the complete and overwhelming nature of God's judgment. The "nations" refer to the Gentile peoples who have opposed God and His purposes. Historically, this reflects the times when Israel was surrounded by hostile nations, and prophetically, it points to the ultimate judgment of all who stand against God. The phrase "in My anger" underscores the righteous indignation of God against sin and rebellion. God's anger is not capricious but is a holy response to injustice and wickedness. in My wrath I made them drunk and poured their blood on the ground Make them drunk, implies a change of imagery from that of the battle to that of the cup of wrath, as in Isaiah 51:17, Psalm 75:8, Jeremiah 25:15. The section which thus closes has often been applied (as, e.g., in the Prayer-Book Epistle for the Monday before Easter) to the passion of our Lord. In that agony and death it has been said He was alone, and none was with Him. He trod the winepress of the wrath of God. It is obvious, however, that this, though we may legitimately apply some of Isaiah's phrases to it, is not an interpretation of this passage, which paints a victory, and not a passion. The true analogue in the New Testament is that of the victory of the triumphant Christ in Revelation 19:11-13; but it may be conceded that, from one point of view, the agony and the cross were themselves a conflict with the powers of evil (John 12:31-32; Colossians 2:15), and that as He came out of that conflict as a conqueror, the words in which Isaiah paints the victor over Edom may, though in a much remoter analogy, be applicable to Him in that conflict also. . . .
