In the cultural context of ancient Israel, marriage was a covenantal relationship, reflecting commitment and faithfulness. The imagery of God as a husband suggests protection, provision, and love. This metaphor is consistent with other biblical passages, such as <a href="/hosea/2-19.htm">Hosea 2:19-20</a>, where God promises to betroth Israel to Himself in righteousness and faithfulness. The idea of God as the Maker underscores His role as Creator, highlighting His authority and power over all creation, as seen in <a href="/genesis/1.htm">Genesis 1:1</a>.the LORD of Hosts is His name— The title "LORD of Hosts" (Yahweh Sabaoth) signifies God's supreme command over the heavenly armies and His sovereignty over all earthly and spiritual realms. This name is used frequently in the Old Testament to convey God's might and His ability to protect and deliver His people. It reflects the military aspect of God's character, assuring Israel of His power to defend them against their enemies. This title is also found in <a href="/1_samuel/17-45.htm">1 Samuel 17:45</a>, where David confronts Goliath, emphasizing God's strength in battle.the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer; The term "Holy One of Israel" highlights God's purity, separateness, and moral perfection. It is a title that appears often in Isaiah, underscoring God's unique relationship with Israel. As "Redeemer," God is portrayed as one who rescues and restores His people. This concept of redemption is central to the biblical narrative, pointing to God's deliverance of Israel from Egypt (<a href="/exodus/6-6.htm">Exodus 6:6</a>) and foreshadowing the ultimate redemption through Jesus Christ. The role of a redeemer in ancient Israel involved buying back or liberating someone from bondage, reflecting God's commitment to His people's freedom and restoration.He is called the God of all the earth. This phrase affirms God's universal sovereignty, extending beyond Israel to encompass all nations and creation. It challenges any notion of God being a local or tribal deity, asserting His authority over the entire world. This universal aspect of God's rule is echoed in <a href="/psalms/24.htm">Psalm 24:1</a>, which declares that the earth and everything in it belong to the LORD. It also anticipates the New Testament revelation of God's plan for all nations, as seen in the Great Commission (<a href="/matthew/28-19.htm">Matthew 28:19</a>) and the vision of a diverse multitude worshiping God in <a href="/revelation/7-9.htm">Revelation 7:9</a>.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <a href="/topical/t/the_lord_of_hosts.htm">The LORD of Hosts</a> This title emphasizes God's supreme authority and power over all heavenly armies and earthly matters.

The "Redeemer" in this context suggests the idea of the next of kin (such, e.g., as Boaz was to Ruth), taking on himself the kinsman's duty of protection (<a href="/context/ruth/4-4.htm" title="And I thought to advertise you, saying, Buy it before the inhabitants, and before the elders of my people. If you will redeem it, redeem it: but if you will not redeem it, then tell me, that I may know: for there is none to redeem it beside you; and I am after you. And he said, I will redeem it.">Ruth 4:4-6</a>).<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/isaiah/54.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div>Verse 5. - For thy Maker is thine Husband; rather, for thy Husband is thy Maker. The verse is exegetical of the terms, "married with" in ver. 1, and "widowhood" in ver. 4. "I," says the prophet, "have called thee married and widowed, thereby yoking thee to a husband, for thou hast a Husband, namely, thy Maker." (The Hebrew has both words in the plural, to accord with the following Elohim.) This relationship of God to his Church is often asserted by the prophets (<a href="/jeremiah/3-14.htm">Jeremiah 3:14</a>; <a href="/jeremiah/31-32.htm">Jeremiah 31:32</a>; <a href="/hosea/2-19.htm">Hosea 2:19</a>; <a href="/songs/1-4.htm">Song of Solomon 1:4</a>, etc.), and lies at the root of the oft-recurring metaphor by which idolatry is called "lewdness," "adultery," or "playing the whore." Thy Redeemer the Holy One; rather, thy Redeemer is the Holy One. (On the title itself, see the comment on Isaiah 1:4.) The God of the whole earth (comp. <a href="/psalms/24-1.htm">Psalm 24:1</a>; <a href="/psalms/47-2.htm">Psalm 47:2, 7</a>; <a href="/psalms/133.htm">Psalm 133</a>:18, etc.). Materially, he was always this. Now, from this time, he will be "God of the whole earth" morally; not God of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles (see <a href="/romans/3-29.htm">Romans 3:29</a>). <a href="/commentaries/isaiah/54-5.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a> <a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div>For כִּ֤י (kî) Conjunction <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3588.htm">Strong's 3588: </a> A relative conjunction your husband בֹעֲלַ֙יִךְ֙ (ḇō·‘ă·la·yiḵ) Verb - Qal - Participle - masculine plural construct | second person feminine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_1166.htm">Strong's 1166: </a> To be master, to marry is your Maker— עֹשַׂ֔יִךְ (‘ō·śa·yiḵ) Verb - Qal - Participle - masculine plural construct | second person feminine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_6213.htm">Strong's 6213: </a> To do, make the LORD יְהוָ֥ה (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 of Hosts צְבָא֖וֹת (ṣə·ḇā·’ō·wṯ) Noun - common plural <a href="/hebrew/strongs_6635.htm">Strong's 6635: </a> A mass of persons, reg, organized for, war, a campaign [is] His name— שְׁמ֑וֹ (šə·mōw) Noun - masculine singular construct | third person masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_8034.htm">Strong's 8034: </a> A name the Holy קְד֣וֹשׁ (qə·ḏō·wōš) Adjective - masculine singular construct <a href="/hebrew/strongs_6918.htm">Strong's 6918: </a> Sacred, God, an angel, a saint, a sanctuary One of Israel יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל (yiś·rā·’êl) Noun - proper - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3478.htm">Strong's 3478: </a> Israel -- 'God strives', another name of Jacob and his desc is your Redeemer; וְגֹֽאֲלֵךְ֙ (wə·ḡō·’ă·lêḵ) Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Participle - masculine singular construct | second person feminine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_1350.htm">Strong's 1350: </a> To redeem, act as kinsman He is called יִקָּרֵֽא׃ (yiq·qā·rê) Verb - Nifal - Imperfect - third person masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_7121.htm">Strong's 7121: </a> To call, proclaim, read the God אֱלֹהֵ֥י (’ĕ·lō·hê) Noun - masculine plural construct <a href="/hebrew/strongs_430.htm">Strong's 430: </a> gods -- the supreme God, magistrates, a superlative of all כָל־ (ḵāl) Noun - masculine singular construct <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3605.htm">Strong's 3605: </a> The whole, all, any, every the earth. הָאָ֖רֶץ (hā·’ā·reṣ) Article | Noun - feminine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_776.htm">Strong's 776: </a> Earth, land <div class="vheading">Links</div><a href="/niv/isaiah/54-5.htm">Isaiah 54:5 NIV</a> <a href="/nlt/isaiah/54-5.htm">Isaiah 54:5 NLT</a> <a href="/esv/isaiah/54-5.htm">Isaiah 54:5 ESV</a> <a href="/nasb/isaiah/54-5.htm">Isaiah 54:5 NASB</a> <a href="/kjv/isaiah/54-5.htm">Isaiah 54:5 KJV</a> <a href="//bibleapps.com/isaiah/54-5.htm">Isaiah 54:5 BibleApps.com</a> <a href="//bibliaparalela.com/isaiah/54-5.htm">Isaiah 54:5 Biblia Paralela</a> <a href="//holybible.com.cn/isaiah/54-5.htm">Isaiah 54:5 Chinese Bible</a> <a href="//saintebible.com/isaiah/54-5.htm">Isaiah 54:5 French Bible</a> <a href="/catholic/isaiah/54-5.htm">Isaiah 54:5 Catholic Bible</a> <a href="/isaiah/54-5.htm">OT Prophets: Isaiah 54:5 For your Maker is your husband (Isa Isi Is)</a></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="left"><a href="/isaiah/54-4.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="Isaiah 54:4"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="Isaiah 54:4" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/isaiah/54-6.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="Isaiah 54:6"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="Isaiah 54:6" /></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>
