TSNTyndale Study Notes:

41:4 each new generation from the beginning of time: God is sovereign over all things. From the beginning he has unfolded each stage of history according to his plan.
• In the book of Revelation, Jesus identifies himself as the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End (Rev 1:8, 17; 2:8; 21:6; 22:13).
• I alone am he: The Lord alone is God (see also Isa 43:10, 13; 46:4; 48:12; Deut 32:39). Jesus used similar expressions for himself (see John 6:35; 8:12, 24; 9:5; 10:7, 9, 11, 14; 11:25; 14:6; 15:1, 5).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

(Occurrence 0) Who has performed and accomplished these deeds?

(Some words not found in UHB: who? performed and,done calling the,generations from,beginning I YHWH first and=DOM last I he/it )

Yahweh uses this question to emphasize that he is the one who has done these things. Alternate translation: “I have performed and accomplished these deeds.”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

(Occurrence 0) Who has summoned the generations from the beginning?

(Some words not found in UHB: who? performed and,done calling the,generations from,beginning I YHWH first and=DOM last I he/it )

Here the word “generations” represents all of human history, which Yahweh created and directed throughout history. The rhetorical question anticipates the answer, Yahweh. Alternate translation: “I have summoned the generations of humanity from the beginning.”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet

(Occurrence 0) performed and accomplished

(Some words not found in UHB: who? performed and,done calling the,generations from,beginning I YHWH first and=DOM last I he/it )

These two words mean basically the same thing and emphasize that Yahweh is the one who has done these things.

(Occurrence 0) the first, and with the last ones

(Some words not found in UHB: who? performed and,done calling the,generations from,beginning I YHWH first and=DOM last I he/it )

This could mean: (1) that Yahweh existed before creation and will exist at the end of creation or (2) that Yahweh was before the first generation of humanity and will be at the last generation of humanity.
