Charles Spurgeon Commentary Isaiah 50:8-10

"He is near that justifieth me; who will content with me? let us stand up together: who is mine adversary? let him come near to me. Behold, the Lord Jehovah will help me; who is he that shall condemn me? behold, all they shall wax old as a garment, the moth shall eat them up. Who is among you that feareth Jehovah, that obeyeth the voice of his servant? he that walketh in darkness, and hath no light, let him trust in the name of Jehovah, and rely upon his God." — Isaiah 50:8-10 (ASV)

Let us stand together: who is my adversary? Let him come near to me. Behold, the Lord God will help me; who is he that shall condemn me? Lo, they all shall wax old as a garment; the moth shall eat them up. Who is among you that fears the LORD, that obeys the voice of his servant, that walks in darkness, and has no light?

It is the Saviour still speaking, for he knew what it was to walk in darkness and to have no light. And what terrible darkness it was, my brothers and sisters! What an awful thing it was for him to so suffer the withdrawal of the light of his Father's countenance from him! He knows, therefore, what this trial means; and being full of compassion, he offers to us the kindest counsel if we are in a similar condition. What does he tell us to do? Listen, you who do love the Lord, yet who are in the dark.
