strong--as opposed to the power of Israel's oppressor (Rev 18:8).
plead . . . cause--as their advocate. Image from a court of justice; appropriate as God delivers His people not by mere might, but by righteousness. His plea against Satan and all their enemies is His own everlasting love, reconciling mercy and justice in the Redeemer's work and person (Mic 7:9; Zac 3:1-5; Jo1 2:1).
give rest . . . disquiet--There is a play on the similarity of sounds in the two Hebrew verbs to express more vividly the contrast: "that He may give quiet to the land of Judah (heretofore disquieted by Babylon); but disquiet to the inhabitants of Babylon" (heretofore quietly secure) (Isa 14:6-8). |
| Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
Redeemer - i. e., גאל gā'al. Yahweh is Israel's next relative, bound by law to avenge him, as well as to ransom him from captivity. It was the Go'el's duty also to plead his kinsman's cause. How thoroughly Yahweh will execute this duty for Israel is shown in the Hebrew by the triple repetition of the same word; literally "in pleading He will plead their plea."
The land ... - Rather, "the earth." Babylon has hitherto by its ambition kept the world in unrest: now by its fall men everywhere can dwell in security. |
| The Scofield Bible Commentary, by Cyrus Ingerson Scofield, [1917] |
redeemer
Hebrew, "goel," Redemption (Kinsman type).
(See Scofield) - (Isa 59:20). |

| Plead - He will actually and readily effect it. |
| Adam Clarke Commentary on the Whole Bible - Published 1810-1826 |
| Their Redeemer is strong - And it was not that he wanted power, and that Nebuchadnezzar had much, that Jerusalem was taken; but because the people had sinned, and would not return; and therefore national sins called for national punishments. These have taken place; and now the Lord of hosts shows them that the power of the Chaldeans is mere weakness against his might. |
6 He who smote [05221] the people [05971] in wrath [05678] with a continual [01115] [05627] stroke [04347], he that ruled [07287] the nations [01471] in anger [0639], is persecuted [04783], and none [01097] hindereth [02820].

1 My [3450] little children [5040], these things [5023] write I [1125] unto you [5213], that [3363] ye sin [264] not [3363]. And [2532] if [1437] any man [5100] sin [264], we have [2192] an advocate [3875] with [4314] the Father [3962], Jesus [2424] Christ [5547] the righteous [1342]:
1 And he shewed [07200] me Joshua [03091] the high [01419] priest [03548] standing [05975] before [06440] the angel [04397] of the LORD [03068], and Satan [07854] standing [05975] at his right hand [03225] to resist [07853] him.
