TSNTyndale Study Notes:

54:1–55:13 This is an invitation to participate in the restoration to God’s favor made possible through the ministry of the promised servant.

54:1-17 Salvation flows from the vindication of the suffering servant. The promises mentioned here go beyond the return from Babylonian exile and apply to the coming of Jesus Christ, the extension of the kingdom to the church, the benefits of the second coming of Jesus Christ as the bridegroom of the church, and the new Jerusalem.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

(Occurrence 0) you barren woman … children of the married woman

(Some words not found in UHB: sing infertile not bear burst song and,shout not in_labour that/for/because/then/when more sons_of desolate from=(the)_sons married he/it_had_said YHWH )

Yahweh telling the people of Jerusalem to rejoice because there will be many people living in Jerusalem again is spoken of as if Yahweh were telling a barren women she is going to have many children.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

(Occurrence 0) break into joyful singing and cry aloud, you who have never been in birth labor

(Some words not found in UHB: sing infertile not bear burst song and,shout not in_labour that/for/because/then/when more sons_of desolate from=(the)_sons married he/it_had_said YHWH )

This statement means the same thing as the first part of the sentence.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / pastforfuture

(Occurrence 0) For the children of the desolate one are more

(Some words not found in UHB: sing infertile not bear burst song and,shout not in_labour that/for/because/then/when more sons_of desolate from=(the)_sons married he/it_had_said YHWH )

An event that will happen in the future is spoken of as if it happened in the past. This emphasizes that the event will certainly happen. Alternate translation: “For the children of the desolate woman will be more”

(Occurrence 0) the desolate one

(Some words not found in UHB: sing infertile not bear burst song and,shout not in_labour that/for/because/then/when more sons_of desolate from=(the)_sons married he/it_had_said YHWH )

Here “desolate” means that the woman’s husband had rejected and abandoned her
