• Verse 5 carries us on to what will be fulfilled at the second coming of Christ. (“Isaiah 40” by F.B. Hole)
• So the prophecy here, as is usual in the Old Testament, has both advents in view. The same feature meets us in chapter 61:2, for, when the Lord Jesus read this in the synagogue at Nazareth, He stopped in the middle of the verse, knowing that the latter part of it referred to His second advent in power and not His first advent in grace. A single star shines in our night sky but when seen through a telescope it proves to be two. So this predicted advent of Jehovah in the person of the Messiah is discovered to be two advents in the clearer light of the New Testament. (“Isaiah 40” by F.B. Hole)
