Commentaries on Isaiah 11:1
- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 1And there shall come forth a rod - In the previous chapter, the prophet had represented the Assyrian monarch and his army under the image of a dense and flourishing forest, with all its glory and grandeur. In opposition to this, he describes the illustrious personage who is the subject of this chapter, under the image of a slender twig or shoot, sprouting up from the root of a decayed and fallen tree.

- Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 1The peaceful character of Christ's kingdom and subjects. (Is. 11:1-9) The conversion of the Gentiles and Jews. (Is. 11:10-16) Verses 1-9 The Messiah is called a Rod, and a Branch. The words signify a small, tender product; a shoot, such as is easily broken off.

The house of David was brought very low at the time of…Read the comment

This new growth from the old roots will not resemble the previous weak and unjust descendants of David (see Isaiah 4:2). Jesus, the Messiah (God's chosen one), is the final fulfillment.Read the comment

From the local and temporary national deliverance the prophet passes by the law of suggestion in an easy transition to the end of all prophecy--the everlasting deliverance under Messiah's reign, not merely His first coming, but chiefly His second coming. The language and illustrations are still drawn from the temporary national subject, with which he began, but the glories described pertain to Messiah's reign. Hezekiah cannot, as some think…Read the comment
