Isaiah 50:6
offered <05414> [gave.]
jaws <03895> [my cheeks.]
The eastern people always held the beard in great veneration; and to pluck a man's beard is one of the grossest indignities that can be offered. D'Arvieux gives a remarkable instance of an Arab, who, having received a wound in his jaw, chose to hazard his life rather than suffer the surgeon to cut off his beard. See Note on 2 Sa 10:4.
out ... beard <04803> [that plucked.]
hide <05641> [I hid.]
Another instance of the utmost contempt and detestation. Throughout the East it is highly offensive to spit in any one's presence; and if this is such an indignity, how much more spitting in the face?
Isaiah 42:1
servant <05650> [my servant.]
support <08551> [whom I.]
chosen one <0972> [mine elect.]
<05315> [my soul.]
placed <05414> [I have.]
make <03318> [he shall.]
Isaiah 43:3
Holy One <06918> [the Holy One.]
I ... handed <05414> [I gave.]
Isaiah 43:20
animals <02416> [beast.]
ostriches <01323> [owls. or, ostriches. Heb. daughters of the owl. to give.]
chosen <0972> [my chosen.]
