Turn on power, Link all the teleporters and build the shield.Ģ. Wicked people often exult in their success they glory in the execution of their purposes but they are really accomplishing the plans of God, and executing his great designs.1. In accomplishing this, the Medes and Persians would rejoice or exult, not as the fulfilling of the plan of God but they would exult as if it were their own plan, though it would be really the glorious plan of God. It was a mighty undertaking and one in which the power, the justice, and the dominion of God over nations would be evinced. It means here, the high and exalted plan of God in regard to Babylon. The word rendered ‹my highness‘ ( גאותי ga'ăvāthı̂y ) means, properly, “my majesty,” or “glory.” When applied to people, as it often is, it means pride or arrogance. ![]() My mighty ones - Those who are strong and who are so entirely under my direction, that they may be called mine.įor mine anger - To accomplish the purposes of my anger against Babylon.Įven them that rejoice in my highness - It cannot be supposed that the Medes and Persians really exulted, or rejoiced in God or in his plans, for it is evident that, like Sennacherib Isaiah 47:6). Here it means, that the Medes and Persians were set apart, in the purpose of God, to accomplish his designs in regard to Babylon (compare the note at Isaiah 10:5-6). Thus, it means to dedicate one to the office of priest Exodus 28:41 to set apart or dedicate an altar Exodus 39:36 to dedicate a people Exodus 19:10-14 to appoint, or institute a fast Joel 1:14 Joel 2:15 to sanctify a war Joel 3:9, that is, to prepare one‘s-self for it, or make it ready. The word ‹sanctify‘ ( קדשׁ qâdash ) often means “to set apart” - either to God to an office to any sacred use or to any purpose of religion, or of accomplishing any of the divine plans. My sanctified ones - The Medes and Persians not called ‹sanctified because they were holy, but because they were set apart by the divine intention and purpose to accomplish this. The “command” was not given by the prophets, or by an audible voice but it was his secret purpose and direction that led them to this enterprise. ![]() “He” claimed the control and direction of all their movements and though the command was not understood by “them” as coming from him, yet it was by his direction, and in accordance with his plan (compare the notes at Isaiah 10:7 Isaiah 45:5-6). I have commanded - This is the language of God in reference to those who were about to destroy Babylon. ![]() So seven angels, the Lord's holy and mighty ones, will be employed in pouring out the vials of his wrath on mystical Babylon, Revelation 15:1. Or, "in mine anger" which being stirred up, put him upon calling those mighty ones to his service, and fitting them for it: literally it is, "to my nose" to be before him, to be at his beck and will, and to minister his wrath and vengeance:Įven them that rejoice in my highness in doing that which tended to the exaltation and glory of God they went cheerfully about the work, and exulted and triumphed in their success: or, "that rejoice my highness" make me glad, because I am glorified by them. "that they may avenge my wrath upon them:' I have also called my mighty ones meaning Cyrus and Darius, and the officers of their armies, with the common soldiers, who were furnished with might and strength to do his will, to which they were called in his providence:įor mine anger to execute his wrath upon the Babylonians so the Targum, The Medes and Persians, so called, not because sanctified by the Spirit of God, or made holy persons, through the regenerating and renewing grace of God, or purified by the blood of Christ, and prepared for glory but because they were set apart in the mind and counsel of God for a special work and service, and were qualified by him with courage and strength to perform it, and therefore said to be his and this command that was given them was not by a voice from heaven, or in a message by one of his prophets but by a secret instinct, and, by the power of his providence, stirring them up to engage in such an enterprise.
