Bible Commentary

Isaiah 55:7

The Pulpit Commentary · Joseph S. Exell and contributors · Public Domain

Let the wicked forsake his way; i.e. his mode of life. A general promise of forgiveness of sin upon repentance and amendment of life was first given to Israel through Solomon (2 Chronicles 7:14). The doctrine is largely preached by the prophets; but is nowhere more distinctly and emphatically laid down than in this place.

God's will is to "multiply pardon," if man will only turn to him.
