them to a deeper understanding of the covenant."

- "As Israel chose the soft path of
religious fervor rather than a 'broken and contrite heart', so too does
Western Christianity face the loss of a justification theology in worship.

C5 - Exegetical Notes on Isaiah 43:16-21," Douglas MacCallum
Lindsay Judisch, Concordia Theological Seminary (LCMS - Indiana).
- "The idea here is, quite to
the contrary, the ease with which the Lord eliminates any resistance
to His will, as easily as a man quenches the typical flaxen wick of
an oil-burning lamp of antiquity. The feminine noun pishthah
actually denotes "flax" in the same way as the more common
pesheth (which is also feminine). Thus, pishtah
refers to a crop of flax which was still in the field in Exodus 9
(twice in verse 31)."
