48:1-22 The Lord here calls on Israel to forsake her historic rebelliousness and listen to what he says. The Hebrew word translated listening is often synonymous with obeying or acting upon what is heard. 48:1-11 This prophecy is a disputation, a speech in which the prophet argues a set of points against his audience. 48:1-2 Israel was religious but not truly committed to the Lord. 48:1 Jacob . . . Judah: Although Isaiah’s normal focus was on Judah, here he addressed all the tribes of Israel.
