Bible Question: What is isaiah 55? |
Bible Answer: Hello Olives, I will assume you're asking for the meaning of Is. 55:1? What we see is the compassion of the Lord. The Bible Knowledge Commentary make this observation: "55:1-2. God invites people in need to come (this word occurs four times in v. 1) to Him. By coming they indicate that they are trusting in and relying on Him for salvation and are agreeing to obey His commandments. The blessings God gives them are available without cost. Salvation is a free gift of God, whether it refers to spiritual redemption or physical deliverance. Probably both are intended here. The Lord asked the people how they could be interested in other things besides Himself as He is the only One who can bring genuine satisfaction. Throughout all history people have tried to find satisfaction through many things other than God." I hope this helps, BradK |
