INTRODUCTION TO Isaiah 44 In this chapter the Lord comforts his people with the promise of the effusion of his Spirit, and the blessings of his grace upon them; the consequence of which would be fruitfulness in them, and the conversion of others, who should profess themselves the Lord's people, Isaiah 44:1, he proves his deity in opposition to all false gods from his eternity, omniscience, and...

Remember these, O Jacob, O Israel,.... Remember these persons, these idolaters before spoken of; or these things, the gross idolatries they were guilty of, and loath and abhor them, shun and avoid them, and not imitate them, and do the same things: or remember that this was formerly your case, and admire the distinguishing grace of God, in turning you from idols to serve him: for by Jacob and...
Matthew Henry
God, by the prophet, goes on in this chapter, as before, I.

A deceived heart hath turned him aside, that he cannot deliver his soul, nor say, Is there not a lie in my right hand? Remember these, O Jacob and Israel; Think of these false gods, and be ashamed of them.

For thou art my servant: I have formed thee; thou art my servant: O Israel, thou shalt not be forgotten of me. I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, thy transgressions, and, as a cloud, thy sin: return unto me; for I have redeemed thee. These wooden gods have done nothing of the sort. Come back to the true God, and worship him, and be happy in his love.

A deceived heart hath turned him aside, that he cannot deliver his soul, nor say, Is there not a lie in my right hand? Remember these, O Jacob and Israel; for thou art my servant: You who fear God, remember these things, and keep clear of idolatry, —the setting up of crucifixes, the hanging up of crosses or any kind of symbol whatever. Even though it be merely the simple triangle, or the sacred...
Charles H. Spurgeon
I have formed thee; thou art my servant: O Israel, thou shalt not be forgotten of me. I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, thy transgressions, and, as a cloud, thy sins: return unto me; for I have redeemed thee. Sing, O ye heavens; for the LORD hath done it: shout, ye lower parts of the earth: break forth into singing, ye mountains, O forest, and every tree therein: for the LORD hath redeemed...
Charles H. Spurgeon
Remember these, O Jacob and Israel; for thou art my servant: I have formed thee; “Thou hast not formed me, as these idolaters make their gods; but I have formed thee.” Isa_44:21. Thou art my servant: O Israel, thou shalt not be forgotten of me. God does not forget his people. If you are trusting in him, you may forget him through your infirmity, but because of his infinite love, he will never...
