This phrase connects to the broader context of Isaiah, where God is portrayed as the ultimate authority and protector of Israel. The term "Hosts" refers to the angelic armies, underscoring God's ability to execute His will. This phrase assures the reader that the message and wisdom being discussed are divinely ordained, not merely human insight. It aligns with other scriptures, such as <a href="/psalms/24-10.htm">Psalm 24:10</a>, which also refers to God as the "LORD of Hosts," highlighting His majesty and strength.<p><b>who is wonderful in counsel</b><br>The word "wonderful" suggests something extraordinary and beyond human comprehension. In the context of Isaiah, God's counsel is contrasted with the flawed advice of human leaders. This phrase echoes <a href="/isaiah/9-6.htm">Isaiah 9:6</a>, where the coming Messiah is called "Wonderful Counselor," pointing to Jesus Christ as the ultimate source of divine wisdom. The counsel of God is perfect and trustworthy, providing guidance that surpasses human understanding. This reflects the biblical theme that God's ways and thoughts are higher than ours, as seen in <a href="/isaiah/55-8.htm">Isaiah 55:8-9</a>.<p><b>and excellent in wisdom</b><br>"Excellent in wisdom" highlights the perfection and completeness of God's understanding. This wisdom is not just intellectual but practical, guiding the course of history and the lives of individuals.
