Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 14. - Cry thou (Isaiah 40:6). The prophet has to publish two things: (1) God's love for his people, however humiliated and miserable their present position might be; and (2) the promise of coming prosperity. I am jealous. The term implies ardent love, which cannot bear itself to be slighted, or the object of its affection to be injured (comp. Zechariah 8:2, and note there; Numbers 25:11, 13; Joel 2:18). For Jerusalem, as the capital of the kingdom; and for Zion, as the seat of worship.
