Charles Spurgeon Commentary Isaiah 43:10

"Ye are my witnesses, saith Jehovah, and my servant whom I have chosen; that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me." — Isaiah 43:10 (ASV)

And my servant whom I have chosen:

That great Servant of God, you know his name, even Christ Jesus the faithful and true Witness, bears better witness for God than the whole nation of the Jews, or the Lord's chosen people in all ages, can bear.

You are my witnesses, says the LORD,—

The chosen people of God have become witnesses for Jehovah that he, and he alone, is the true God; that he, and he alone, has truly foretold the future. Let the heathen prove that their gods have done the same if they can; we know that they cannot. You are my witnesses, says the Lord,—

13.

Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me. I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour. I have declared, and have saved, and I have shewed, when there was no strange god among you: therefore ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, that I am God. Yea, before the day was I am he; and there is none that can deliver out of my hand: I will work, and who shall let it?

It is a great blessing to know that the Lord is God; and not merely to know that as a matter of fact, but to feel it, to realize it, and to trust in God and act towards him conscious that he, and he alone, is the living and true God.
