以赛亚书 42:24

誰把雅各交出來給掠奪者?誰把以色列交給搶劫的呢?豈不是耶和華,就是我們得罪的那位嗎?因為他們不肯遵行他的道,也不肯聽從他的律法。

谁 将 雅 各 交 出 当 作 掳 物 , 将 以 色 列 交 给 抢 夺 的 呢 ? 岂 不 是 耶 和 华 麽 ? 就 是 我 们 所 得 罪 的 那 位 。 他 们 不 肯 遵 行 他 的 道 , 也 不 听 从 他 的 训 诲 。

Contextual Overview

18 "You who are deaf, hear me. You who are blind, look and see. 19 No one is more blind than my servant Israel or more deaf than the messenger I send. No one is more blind than the person I own or more blind than the servant of the Lord . 20 Israel, you have seen much, but you have not obeyed. You hear, but you refuse to listen." 21 The Lord made his teachings wonderful, because he is good. 22 These people have been defeated and robbed. They are trapped in pits or locked up in prison. Like robbers, enemies have taken them away, and there is no one to save them. Enemies carried them off, and no one said, "Bring them back." 23 Will any of you listen to this? Will you listen carefully in the future? 24 Who let the people of Jacob be carried off? Who let robbers take Israel away? The Lord allowed this to happen, because we sinned against him. We did not live the way he wanted us to live and did not obey his teaching. 25 So he became very angry with us and brought terrible wars against us. It was as if the people of Israel had fire all around them, but they didn't know what was happening. It was as if they were burning, but they didn't pay any attention.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Who gave Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to the robbers?.... To the Roman soldiers, to be spoiled and robbed by them? this was not owing to chance and fortune, or to the superior skill and power of the Roman army:

did not the Lord, he against whom we have sinned? he did, but not without cause; he was justly provoked to it by the sins of the Jews, which were the meritorious and procuring causes of it; yet the Roman army could not have taken their city and plundered it had it not been the will of God, who for their sins, delivered it up to them; even Titus, the Heathen emperor, himself saw the hand of God in it, and acknowledged it;

"God favouring us (says he c) we have made war; it is God that drew the Jews out of those fortresses; for what could human hands and machines do against such towers?''

for they would not walk in his ways; in Christ, the way, the truth, and the life; nor in the ways of his commandments; or in the ordinances of the Gospel; all which they rejected:

neither were they obedient unto his law; or "doctrine" d; the doctrine of the Gospel, particularly the doctrine of justification by faith in the righteousness of Christ; they went about to establish their own righteousness, and did not submit to his; and also every other doctrine respecting the person, office, and grace of Christ, whom they disbelieved, and refused to receive.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Who gave Jacob for a spoil? - Who gave up the Jewish people to be plundered? The object of this verse is, to bring distinctly before them the fact that it was Yahweh, the God of their fathers, and of their nation, who had brought this calamity upon them. It was not the work of chance, but it was the immediate and direct act of God on account of their sins. Probably, as a people, they were not disposed to believe this; and the prophet, therefore, takes occasion to calf their attention particularly to this fact.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Isaiah 42:24. We have sinned - "They have sinned"] For חטאנו chatanu, "we have sinned," first person; the Septuagint and Chaldee read חטאו chateu, "they have sinned," in the third person.
