Isaiah 6
1.Isaiah, in a vision of the Lord in his glory
5.Being terrified, has apprehensions removed
8.He offers himself, and is sent to show the obstinacy of the people
13.A remnant shall be saved














Then I said: “Woe is me, for I am ruined,
Isaiah's response to the vision of God's holiness is one of despair and self-awareness of his own sinfulness. The term "woe" is often used in prophetic literature to pronounce judgment or lamentation. Here, Isaiah pronounces it upon himself, recognizing his unworthiness. This moment reflects the common biblical theme of human inadequacy before divine perfection, as seen in other encounters with God, such as Moses at the burning bush (Exodus 3:6) and Peter's reaction to Jesus' miracle (Luke 5:8).

because I am a man of unclean lips
Isaiah acknowledges his sinfulness, specifically focusing on his speech. In the biblical context, the lips represent what comes from the heart (Matthew 12:34). Isaiah's confession highlights the importance of purity in speech, a theme echoed inJames 3:6, where the tongue is described as a fire. This acknowledgment of impurity is crucial for understanding the need for divine cleansing and forgiveness.

dwelling among a people of unclean lips;
Isaiah not only confesses his own sin but also identifies with the sinfulness of his people, Israel. This reflects the communal aspect of sin in the Old Testament, where the actions of individuals affect the entire community (Joshua 7). The phrase underscores the pervasive nature of sin and the need for national repentance, a recurring theme in the prophetic books.

for my eyes have seen the King,
Isaiah's vision of God as King emphasizes His sovereignty and majesty. In the ancient Near Eastern context, kingship was associated with authority and power. This vision contrasts earthly kings with the divine King, highlighting God's ultimate authority. The recognition of God as King is a central theme in the Bible, pointing to the future reign of Christ as King of Kings (Revelation 19:16).

the LORD of Hosts.”
The title "LORD of Hosts" refers to God's command over the heavenly armies, signifying His omnipotence and supreme authority. This title is used frequently in the Old Testament to emphasize God's power and ability to execute judgment and deliverance. It connects to the New Testament portrayal of Christ leading the heavenly armies (Revelation 19:14), reinforcing the continuity of God's sovereign rule throughout scripture.

Confession and Repentance
Isaiah's confession of being a man of unclean lips is a model for us to confess and repent of our sins, acknowledging our need for God's cleansing.

Divine Encounter

Lists and Questions
Top 10 Lessons from Isaiah 6

What does "woe" signify in the Bible?

Am I the one, Lord?

Jeremiah 1:9 – Does the idea of God directly touching Jeremiah’s mouth contradict other biblical accounts of prophetic calling?

In Judges 13:22–23, does Manoah’s fear of dying upon seeing God conflict with later portrayals of divine encounters?(5)Then said I, Woe is me.--The cry of the prophet expresses the normal result of man's consciousness of contact with God. So Moses "hid his face, for he was afraid to look upon God" (Exodus 3:6). So Job "abhorred himself and repented in dust and ashes" (Job 42:6). So Peter fell down at his Lord's feet, and cried, "Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, O Lord" (Luke 5:8). Man at such a time feels his nothingness in the presence of the Eternal, his guilt in the presence of the All-holy. No man can see God and live. (Comp. also1Samuel 6:20.)

I am a man of unclean lips.--The prophet's words present at once a parallel and a contrast to those of Moses inExodus 4:10. The Lawgiver feels only, or chiefly, his want of thegiftof utterance which was needed for his work. With Isaiah the dominant thought is that his lips have been defiled by past sins of speech. How can he join in the praises of the seraphim with those lips from which have so often come bitter and hasty words, formal and ceremonial prayers? (Comp.James 3:2;James 3:9). His lips are "unclean" like those of one stricken, as Uzziah had been, by leprosy (Leviticus 13:45). He finds no comfort in the thought that others are as bad as he is, that he "dwells in the midst of a people of unclean lips." Were it otherwise, there might be some hope that influence from without might work his purification. As it is, he and his people seem certain to sink into the abyss. To "have seen the King, the Lord of hosts," was in such a case simply overwhelming (Exodus 33:20). . . .

Verses 5-7. - THE SEQUEL OF THE VISION - THE PROPHET'S SENSE OF UNWORTHINESS. The vision of God in this life, whether natural or ecstatic, cannot but produce in the beholder a deep feeling of his unworthiness. God "is of purer eyes than to behold iniquity;" even "the heavens are not clean in his sight" (Job 15:15). Man, being never wholly purged from sin while on earth, cannot but shrink from contact with the absolutely Holy. Hence Isaiah's cry (ver. 5); and hence, to comfort him, the symbolic action of the seraph (ver. 6) and his encouraging words (ver. 7).Verse 5. -I am undone; literally,cut off,destroyed (comp.Isaiah 15:1;Jeremiah 47:5;Hosea 4:5, 6, etc.). God once said himself, "There shall no man see me and live" (Exodus 33:20). Men expected to die even when they had seen angels of God (Genesis 32:30;Judges 6:22, 23;Judges 13:22). How we are to reconcileExodus 33:20 with this passage,Job 42:5, andEzekiel 1:26-28, is uncertain. Perhaps theecstatic sight was not included in the "seeing"of which God spoke to Moses.I am a man of unclean lips. A man must be indeed" perfect" never to offend in word (James 3:2). Isaiah felt that he had often so offended. His lips were not "clean" in God's sight, and if not his lips, then not his heart; for "out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh" (Matthew 12:34).I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips. Men catch up the phraseology of their time, and use wrong forms of speech, because they hear them daily. "Evil communications corrupt good manners" (1 Corinthians 15:33).
