21 the people I formed for myself that they may proclaim my praise.
21 This people have I formed for myself; they shall shew forth my praise.
21 the people whom I formed for myself that they might declare my praise.
21 the people I made especially for myself, a people custom-made to praise me.
21 This people I have formed for Myself; They shall declare My praise.
21 I have made Israel for myself, and they will someday honor me before the whole world.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Isaiah 43:21
Commentary on Isaiah 43:14-21
(Read Isaiah 43:14-21)
The deliverance from Babylon is foretold, but there is reference to greater events. The redemption of sinners by Christ, the conversion of the Gentiles, and the recall of the Jews, are described. All that is to be done to rescue sinners, and to bring the believer to glory, is little, compared with that wondrous work of love, the redemption of man.
