Isaías 50
Procopius of Gaza
Isaías 50:1
For he compares himself with a husband who is his wife's master and householder. For what master is obliged to let you go? But you have been transgressors from the beginning and so cast out, "sold to your iniquities," enslaved by them, who were before independent and free. And finally, since God did not wait for you but came to you, and coming down to a lowly dignity, he became man. But no one answered him as he was calling for salvation. He adds "there was not one person," since the mass of those not answering are deemed to be as nothing. Whereas those who answered, a few out of the nations will be exempted from the fate of the nations; as with Lot in the days of Sodom, they will be brought out. For the Lord did not think fit to make the holy land available to many. And the barren fig tree was a sign of that. — COMMENTARY ON ISAIAH 50:1-11
Isaías 50:9
Isaiah also gives the name "moth" to those who devour their conscience in their recklessness.… It might be said that the moths are their sins, which worm their way in among those they inhabit, like moths devouring clothing for food. An attitude that inclines toward having no fear is indicative of a people on their way to this kind of ruin, yet who think they are indestructible. But punishment also clearly awaits them. They will be utterly consumed by misfortune as by a moth. — COMMENTARY ON ISAIAH 50:1-11
