Hawker's Poor man's commentary

Isaiah 29:22-24

Reader! above all things, do remark how gracious the Chapter closeth. The Lord will be friends with Jacob, notwithstanding all his rebellion. The cause is assigned, the Lord redeemed Abraham, that is, in the covenant of redemption founded in Christ; and in the promise to Abraham, Jacob's seed was included. Oh! the grace of God in Christ! Isaiah 42:24, and immediately followed with Isaiah 43:1.
