Matthew Poole and continuators on Isaiah 8:17

17 And I will wait upon the LORD that hideth his Face from the house of Jacob , and I will look for him .

Or, as this Particle is rendred Ier. 2. 32, 35. and elsewhere, Yet, notwithstanding this dreadful Prophecy concerning the Unbelief and Rejection of Israel.

I will refer my self and this Matter unto God, casting my Care upon him, and expecting the Accomplishment of his Promise, in sending the Messiah, and in conferring upon me and all believing Israelites all his Mercies and Blessings, to be procured by and through his Blood and Merits.

That now doth, and threatneth that he will hereafter, withdraw his Favour and Blessing, as this Phrase signifies Psal. 10. 1. & 27. 9. and oft elsewhere.

From the Family or People of Israel.

With an Eye of Faith and Expectation, till his time cometh.
