And complaint, professes her faith I have trodden the winepress alone This phrase evokes the imagery of a winepress, a common agricultural tool in ancient Israel used for crushing grapes to produce wine. The act of treading the winepress alone signifies a solitary and decisive action, emphasizing the speaker's unique role and authority. In biblical symbolism, the winepress often represents judgment (Revelation 14:19-20). The solitary nature of the action underscores the idea that this judgment is carried out by God alone, without assistance from any human or nation, highlighting divine sovereignty and the insufficiency of human intervention in divine matters. and no one from the nations was with Me I trampled them in My anger and trod them down in My fury their blood spattered My garments and all My clothes were stained Persons / Places / Events 1. The Speaker (Messiah/Divine Warrior)The speaker is often interpreted as the Messiah or a divine warrior, representing God's judgment and salvation. 2. The Winepress Symbolic of God's judgment. In ancient times, a winepress was used to crush grapes, and here it metaphorically represents the crushing of nations under divine wrath. 3. The Nations Refers to the peoples or nations that stand in opposition to God and His purposes. 4.

The imagery of the winepress emphasizes the thoroughness and inevitability of His judgment against sin. The Solitude of the Divine Warrior The phrase "alone" highlights the uniqueness and sufficiency of God in executing judgment. It reminds us that salvation and judgment are acts of God alone, not dependent on human intervention. The Seriousness of Sin The vivid imagery of blood-stained garments serves as a stark reminder of the seriousness of sin and the consequences it brings. Hope in Divine Justice For believers, the execution of divine justice is a source of hope, knowing that God will ultimately set things right and vindicate His people. Call to Repentance This passage serves as a call to repentance, urging individuals and nations to turn from sin and seek God's mercy before the day of judgment.(3) I have trodden the winepress alone . . .--The "winepress" is here, as elsewhere (Joel 3:13; Lamentations 1:15; Revelation 14:18-20), the received symbol of the carnage of battle. What the hero-conqueror asserts is that the battle was fought by him single-handed. He had no human allies, but God was with him. A slight change in the vowel-points, adopted by some interpreters, turns the verbs into futures: "I will tread . . . will trample, . . ." as in the second clause of the Authorised Version. It is better, perhaps to take the latter verb also as in the past. The work of slaughter is clearly thought of as accomplished before the warrior is seen.Verse 3. - I have trodden the wine-press. The warrior replies. He accepts the suggestion of the prophet; but metaphorically, not literally. He has indeed been "treading a wine-press," but it is the wine-press of his fury, in which he has trampled down his enemies; and the stains upon his raiment are, consequently, not wine-stains, but stains of blood (comp. Joel 3:13; Lamentations 1:15; Revelation 14:19, 20; Revelation 19:15). Alone. In mine own might, with none to aid me. The literal wine-press was always trodden by a band of men. Of the people; rather, of the peoples; i.e. of the neighbouring nations none took part with God against the special enemies of his people, the Idumaeans. All more or less sympathized with his adversaries, and therefore participated in their punishment (see ver. 6). For I will tread them... trample them; rather, so I trode them ... trampled them (Lowth, Rosenmuller, Delitzsch, Cheyne, by an alteration of the vowel-points). The whole is a prophecy of the future; but the dramatic form of the narrative requires that the verbs should be in the past. As "the peoples" would not help God, but took the side of his enemies, they too were placed in the winepress, and crushed under his feet. Their blood; literally, their juice. Lowth and Kay translate, "life-blood;" Delitzsch, "life-sap;" Mr. Cheyne, excellently, "life-stream." Shall be sprinkled... will stain; rather, was sprinkled... stained. Parallel Commentaries ...
