INTRODUCTION TO Isaiah 50 This chapter is a prophecy of the rejection of the Jews, for their neglect and contempt of the Messiah; and of his discharge of his office as Mediator, and fitness for it.

Behold, the Lord God will help me,.... This is repeated from Isaiah 50:7, [See comments on Isaiah 50:7]; to show the certainty of it, the strength of his faith in it, and to discourage his enemies: who is he that shall condemn me? make me out a wicked person (c), prove me guilty, and pass sentence upon me, when thus acquitted and justified by the Lord God?
