7 everyone who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory, whom I formed and made."
7 Even every one that is called by my name: for I have created him for my glory, I have formed him; yea, I have made him.
7 everyone who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory, whom I formed and made."
7 I want them back, every last one who bears my name, every man, woman, and child Whom I created for my glory, yes, personally formed and made each one.'"
7 Everyone who is called by My name, Whom I have created for My glory; I have formed him, yes, I have made him."
7 Bring all who claim me as their God, for I have made them for my glory. It was I who created them.'"
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Isaiah 43:7
Commentary on Isaiah 43:1-7
(Read Isaiah 43:1-7)
God's favour and good-will to his people speak abundant comfort to all believers. The new creature, wherever it is, is of God's forming. All who are redeemed with the blood of his Son, he has set apart for himself. Those that have God for them need not fear who or what can be against them. What are Egypt and Ethiopia, all their lives and treasures, compared with the blood of Christ? True believers are precious in God's sight, his delight is in them, above any people. Though they went as through fire and water, yet, while they had God with them, they need fear no evil; they should be born up, and brought out. The faithful are encouraged. They were to be assembled from every quarter. And with this pleasing object in view, the prophet again dissuades from anxious fears.
