This phrase calls for a reverent fear of the LORD, a foundational principle in the Hebrew Scriptures, emphasizing awe and respect for God's holiness and authority. The "voice of His Servant" refers to the prophetic message delivered by Isaiah, and by extension, the ultimate Servant, Jesus Christ, as seen in the Servant Songs (Isaiah 42, 49, 50, 52-53). Obedience to God's Servant is a theme that resonates with the call to follow Christ in the New Testament (<a href="/john/10-27.htm">John 10:27</a>). The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom (<a href="/proverbs/9-10.htm">Proverbs 9:10</a>), and obedience is a demonstration of genuine faith (<a href="/james/2-17.htm">James 2:17</a>).Who among you walks in darkness and has no light? This phrase addresses those experiencing spiritual desolation or confusion, a common theme in the prophetic literature where darkness symbolizes ignorance or judgment (<a href="/isaiah/9-2.htm">Isaiah 9:2</a>). The absence of light suggests a lack of divine guidance or understanding. In the New Testament, Jesus is described as the Light of the World (<a href="/john/8-12.htm">John 8:12</a>), offering hope and direction to those in spiritual darkness. The imagery of light and darkness is prevalent throughout Scripture, contrasting the knowledge and presence of God with the absence thereof.Let him trust in the name of the LORD; Trusting in the name of the LORD implies reliance on God's character and promises. The "name" of the LORD encompasses His attributes, faithfulness, and covenant relationship with His people. Trust is a central theme in the Psalms (<a href="/psalms/20-7.htm">Psalm 20:7</a>) and is echoed in the New Testament call to faith in Christ (<a href="/romans/10-13.htm">Romans 10:13</a>). This trust is not passive but an active dependence on God's provision and protection, especially in times of uncertainty or trial.let him lean on his God. Leaning on God suggests a posture of dependence and surrender, akin to the imagery of a shepherd supporting his sheep (Psalm 23). This phrase encourages believers to rely on God's strength rather than their own understanding (<a href="/proverbs/3-5.htm">Proverbs 3:5-6</a>). The concept of God as a refuge and fortress is a recurring theme in Scripture (<a href="/psalms/18-2.htm">Psalm 18:2</a>), providing assurance of His steadfast support. In the New Testament, this is mirrored in the call to abide in Christ (<a href="/john/15-4.htm">John 15:4-5</a>), emphasizing a continual, intimate reliance on God's presence and power.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <a href="/topical/t/the_lord.htm">The LORD (Yahweh)</a> The covenant God of Israel, who is the central figure in this passage, calling for reverence and trust. 2. <a href="/topical/t/the_servant.htm">The Servant</a> Often interpreted as the Messiah or a prophetic figure representing God's voice and will.

All true servants know what it is to feel as if the light for which they looked had for a time failed them, to utter a prayer like that of Ajax, "Give light, and let us die" (Hom. Il. xvii. 647). The Servant felt it when he uttered the cry, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" (<a href="/matthew/27-46.htm" title="And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?">Matthew 27:46</a>). For such an one there were the words of counsel, "Trust, in spite of the darkness." So the cry of the forsaken Servant was followed by the word "Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit" (<a href="/luke/23-46.htm" title="And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into your hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost.">Luke 23:46</a>).<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/isaiah/50.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div>Verses 10, 11. - AN ADDRESS OF JEHOVAH TO HIS CHURCH. Some suppose that the Church of Hezekiah's reign is addressed; others the exiles towards the close of the Captivity period. The first verse is an exhortation, encouraging those who fear God, but have insufficient light, to trust in him. The second threatens such as "kindle fire," or cause strife, with retribution. Verse 10. - That obeyeth the voice of his servant; that is, of "his servant" for the time being, whether Isaiah, or Jeremiah, or "the Servant" κατ ἐξοχήν That walketh in darkness. Not clearly seeing his way or knowing what his duty is, and so inclined to despond and doubt. Every such person is bidden to put aside his doubts, and trust wholly in the Name of the Lord, and stay upon his God. Hence light will shine in upon him, and his doubts will be resolved, and sufficient light will be granted him to direct his paths. <a href="/commentaries/isaiah/50-10.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a> <a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div>Who מִ֤י (mî) Interrogative <a href="/hebrew/strongs_4310.htm">Strong's 4310: </a> Who?, whoever, in oblique construction with prefix, suffix among you בָכֶם֙ (ḇā·ḵem) Preposition | second person masculine plural <a href="/hebrew/.htm">Strong's Hebrew</a> fears יְרֵ֣א (yə·rê) Adjective - masculine singular construct <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3373.htm">Strong's 3373: </a> Fearing, reverent the LORD יְהוָ֔ה (Yah·weh) Noun - proper - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3068.htm">Strong's 3068: </a> LORD -- the proper name of the God of Israel [and] obeys שֹׁמֵ֖עַ (šō·mê·a‘) Verb - Qal - Participle - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_8085.htm">Strong's 8085: </a> To hear intelligently the voice בְּק֣וֹל (bə·qō·wl) Preposition-b | Noun - masculine singular construct <a href="/hebrew/strongs_6963.htm">Strong's 6963: </a> A voice, sound of His Servant? עַבְדּ֑וֹ (‘aḇ·dōw) Noun - masculine singular construct | third person masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_5650.htm">Strong's 5650: </a> Slave, servant Who אֲשֶׁ֣ר ׀ (’ă·šer) Pronoun - relative <a href="/hebrew/strongs_834.htm">Strong's 834: </a> Who, which, what, that, when, where, how, because, in order that among you walks הָלַ֣ךְ (hā·laḵ) Verb - Qal - Perfect - third person masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_1980.htm">Strong's 1980: </a> To go, come, walk in darkness חֲשֵׁכִ֗ים (ḥă·šê·ḵîm) Noun - feminine plural <a href="/hebrew/strongs_2825.htm">Strong's 2825: </a> Darkness, misery and has no וְאֵ֥ין (wə·’ên) Conjunctive waw | Adverb <a href="/hebrew/strongs_369.htm">Strong's 369: </a> A non-entity, a negative particle light? נֹ֙גַהּ֙ (nō·ḡah) Noun - feminine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_5051.htm">Strong's 5051: </a> Brilliancy Let him trust יִבְטַח֙ (yiḇ·ṭaḥ) Verb - Qal - Imperfect - third person masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_982.htm">Strong's 982: </a> To trust, be confident, sure in the name בְּשֵׁ֣ם (bə·šêm) Preposition-b | Noun - masculine singular construct <a href="/hebrew/strongs_8034.htm">Strong's 8034: </a> A name of the LORD; יְהוָ֔ה (Yah·weh) Noun - proper - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3068.htm">Strong's 3068: </a> LORD -- the proper name of the God of Israel let him lean וְיִשָּׁעֵ֖ן (wə·yiš·šā·‘ên) Conjunctive waw | Verb - Nifal - Conjunctive imperfect - third person masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_8172.htm">Strong's 8172: </a> To lean, support oneself on his God. בֵּאלֹהָֽיו׃ (bê·lō·hāw) Preposition-b | Noun - masculine plural construct | third person masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_430.htm">Strong's 430: </a> gods -- the supreme God, magistrates, a superlative <div class="vheading">Links</div><a href="/niv/isaiah/50-10.htm">Isaiah 50:10 NIV</a> <a href="/nlt/isaiah/50-10.htm">Isaiah 50:10 NLT</a> <a href="/esv/isaiah/50-10.htm">Isaiah 50:10 ESV</a> <a href="/nasb/isaiah/50-10.htm">Isaiah 50:10 NASB</a> <a href="/kjv/isaiah/50-10.htm">Isaiah 50:10 KJV</a> <a href="//bibleapps.com/isaiah/50-10.htm">Isaiah 50:10 BibleApps.com</a> <a href="//bibliaparalela.com/isaiah/50-10.htm">Isaiah 50:10 Biblia Paralela</a> <a href="//holybible.com.cn/isaiah/50-10.htm">Isaiah 50:10 Chinese Bible</a> <a href="//saintebible.com/isaiah/50-10.htm">Isaiah 50:10 French Bible</a> <a href="/catholic/isaiah/50-10.htm">Isaiah 50:10 Catholic Bible</a> <a href="/isaiah/50-10.htm">OT Prophets: Isaiah 50:10 Who is among you who fears Yahweh (Isa Isi Is)</a></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="left"><a href="/isaiah/50-9.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="Isaiah 50:9"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="Isaiah 50:9" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/isaiah/50-11.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="Isaiah 50:11"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="Isaiah 50:11" /></a></div><div id="botleft"><a href="#" onmouseover='botleft.src="/botleftgif.png"' onmouseout='botleft.src="/botleft.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botleft.png" name="botleft" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="botright"><a href="#" onmouseover='botright.src="/botrightgif.png"' onmouseout='botright.src="/botright.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botright.png" name="botright" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="bot"><iframe width="100%" height="1500" scrolling="no" src="/botmenubhnew2.htm" frameborder="0"></iframe></div></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
