Isaiah 54:13

The Pulpit Commentary on Isaiah 54:13

The Pulpit Commentary · Joseph S. Exell and contributors · Public domain

All thy children shall be taught of the Lord (comp. ; , ; ; ; , , etc.). Christians are all of them "taught of God" (; ).

The "anointing," which they have from the Holy Ghost, "teaches them, and is truth, and is no lie" (), and causes them to "know all things" (). And great shall be the peace of thy children.

Messiah was to be "the Prince of Peace" (). His birth heralded the coming of "peace on earth" (). So far forth as men are true Christians, does peace reign in the conscience and show itself in the life.

Externally there may be persecution, tumult, wars, fightings; but internally, in each heart, there will be a "peace that passes all understanding" (). God "keeps in perfect peace" those" whose minds are stayed on him" ().
