Isaiah 12

Two Songs of Praise and Trust

12:1-6
What would characterize the attitude of the remnant?


Isaiah 12 contains two hymns of thanksgiving. Each hymn is introduced by the phrase, “you will say on that day” (1:1 and 4). Those who experienced the restoration spoken of in Isaiah 11 were to express their thanksgiving to the Lord (11:1-3).

Note: The word “salvation” is used for the first time in Isaiah in verse 2. The second hymn (11:4-6) praises God for His mighty acts and abiding presence.
