Isaiah57:15

15 For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy , I dwell in the high and holy place; with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit , to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones.

Who is omnipotent, everlasting and unchangeable, holy in all his words and ways, and therefore both can and will deliver his People, as he hath promised to do.

With such also whose Spirits are broken and humbled by Afflictions, and by a sense of their sins for which they were afflicted; which doubtless was the case of many of the Jews in the Babylonish Captivity: whom therefore he here implies that God would pity and deliver out of their Distresses.

Marginal references: Ps. 34. 18. & 51. 17. & 138. 6. Ch. 66. 2.
