Matthew Poole and continuators on Isaiah 51:13

13 And forgettest the LORD thy maker , that hath stretched forth the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth? and hast feared continually every day, because of the fury of the oppressor, as if he were ready to destroy ? and where is the fury of the oppressour ?

And dost not consider the infinite power of that God who made thee, and who will plead thy cause.

As if it were in his power to destroy thee in a moment.

What is become of the power & rage of the Babylonians? Is it not all gone? Are not they broken, and thou delivered? He speaks of the thing as if it were already done, because it should certainly and suddenly be done. Where is it? It is no where, it is quite lost and gone, as this Phrase is frequently used, as Psal. 42. 3. Zech. 1. 5. 1 Cor. 15. 55.
