The blessings of Christ's kingdom9. Desolation is foreshown 14. Restoration is promised to succeed Each will be like a shelter from the wind The word "shelter" in Hebrew is "sok," which conveys the idea of protection and covering. In the ancient Near Eastern context, wind often symbolizes chaos and adversity. The imagery here suggests a divine protection that shields believers from life's tumultuous challenges. This phrase can be seen as a metaphor for the Messiah, who provides spiritual refuge and stability amidst the trials of life. The "wind" represents the trials and tribulations that believers face, and the promise is that God will provide a safe haven. and a refuge from the storm like streams of water in a dry land like the shade of a great rock in an arid land As rivers of water . . .--The words paint the picture of the two great blessings of an Eastern landscape: the streams that turn the desert into an oasis, the "rock" throwing its dark shadow as a shelter from the noontide heat. The word for "rock" is the same as that used for Assyria in Isaiah 31:9, and is obviously chosen to emphasise the contrast. Verse 2. - A man shall be as an hiding-place from the wind, etc. Modern critics mostly render, "each man" - i.e. the king, and each of his princes. But it is, to say the least, allowable - with Vitringa and Kay - to regard the word as referring to the king only (comp. Zechariah 6:12, where ish, a man, is used in the same vague way of One who is clearly the Messiah). There was never but one man who could be to other men all that is predicated in this verse of the "man" mentioned (comp. Isaiah 25:4, where nearly the same epithets are predicated of God). A covert; i.e. a protection against Divine wrath. Such is Messiah in his mediatorial character. Rivers of water; i.e. refreshing and invigorating (comp. Isaiah 55:1; John 4:14; John 7:37). The shadow of a great rook. At once refreshing and protecting (see Isaiah 25:4).Parallel Commentaries ...
