Contextual Overview

19 In a vision, you once said to your faithful followers: "I have helped a mighty hero. I chose him from my people and made him famous. 20 David, my servant, is the one I chose to be king, 21 and I will always be there to help and strengthen him. 22 "No enemy will outsmart David, and he won't be defeated by any hateful people. 23 I will strike down and crush his troublesome enemies. 24 He will always be able to depend on my love, and I will make him strong with my own power. 25 I will let him rule the lands across the rivers and seas. 26 He will say to me, ‘You are my Father and my God, as well as the mighty rock where I am safe.' 27 "I have chosen David as my first-born son, and he will be the ruler of all kings on earth. 28 My love for him will last, and my agreement with him will never be broken.

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

Exodus 32:34, 2 Samuel 7:14, 1 Kings 11:6, 1 Kings 11:14, 1 Kings 11:31, 1 Kings 11:39, Proverbs 3:11, Proverbs 3:12, Amos 3:2, 1 Corinthians 11:31, 1 Corinthians 11:32, Hebrews 12:6-11

Reciprocal: Leviticus 18:25 - therefore Deuteronomy 8:5 - as a man Job 35:15 - visited Hebrews 12:11 - no chastening

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Then will I visit their transgression with the rod,.... That is, of men; as in 2 Samuel 7:14, the Lord making use of men to chastise his people by, as he did of the neighbouring nations of the Jews, when they sinned against him; and so the Targum interprets it here,

"I will visit their transgressions by the hands of the tribes of the ungodly;''

or with such afflictions as are common to men, 1 Corinthians 10:13, in a kind, humane, moderate way, in measure, in judgment, and not in wrath and hot displeasure; or in such like manner as a man chastises his children, which is in love, Deuteronomy 8:5

and their iniquity with stripes; such as diseases of body, loss of relations, crosses and disappointments in the world; not with the stripes of divine vengeance, of vindictive justice, such as Christ, the surety of his people, endured for them; but with the scourges of a father, Isaiah 53:8.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Then will I visit their transgression with the rod - They shall be punished, though my mercy shall not be wholly taken from them. God has two objects in his dealings with his backsliding and offending people;

(a) one is to show his displeasure at their conduct, or to punish them;

(b) the other is to reclaim them.

All who have been truly converted, or who are truly his people, will be recovered though they fall into sin; but it may be done, and will be likely to be done, in such a way as to show his own displeasure at their offences.

And their iniquity with stripes - The word rendercd stripes means properly a stroke, a blow; then, judgments or calamities such as God sends on mankind as a punishment for their sins. Genesis 12:17; Exodus 11:1; Psalms 38:11.
