Gill's Notes on the Bible
Behold, God [is] my salvation,.... Or Saviour; that is, Christ, who is God, the great God, and so fit to be a Saviour, and is one, was appointed by the Father, provided in covenant, promised in the word, sent in the fulness of time, and is become the author of salvation, which a creature could not be; and this the church saw her interest in, and which was the ground of her comfort before declared; and to which she prefixed the word "behold", as a note of asseveration, affirming him to be her Saviour; and of admiration, wondering at it; and of exclusion of all others from being concerned therein; and of attention and direction to others, pointing him out as the only one to look unto.
I will trust, and not be afraid; "trust" in Christ for salvation, be confident of enjoying it, and look upon myself safe and secure from all wrath and condemnation, and from every enemy; and not be "afraid" of sin, Satan, the world, death, hell, and wrath to come. The Targum joins this and the preceding clause together,
"behold, in the word of God my salvation I trust, and shall not be moved:''
for the LORD JEHOVAH [is] my strength and [my] song; the author of her spiritual strength; the "strength" of her life, and of her heart, which maintained the one, and supported the other; the strength of her graces, and of her duties, by which she exercised the one, and performed the other: and the subject matter of her "song" were his person, and the fulness and fitness of it, his righteousness, and salvation by him; this clause, and the following one, are taken out of
Exodus 15:2:
he also is become my salvation; salvation is wrought out by Christ, and believers have it in him, and they know it, and believe it, and so are already saved in him.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Behold, God is my salvation - Or, God is the author, or source, of my salvation. It has not been brought about by any human hands, but is to be traced directly to him. The value of a gift is always enhanced by the dignity and excellency of the giver, and it confers an inestimable value on the blessings of salvation, that they are conferred by a being no less than the infinite God. It is not by human or angelic power; but it is to be traced directly and entirely to Yahweh.
I will trust, and not be afraid - Since God is its author; since he is able to defend me, and to perfect that which he has begun, I will confide in him, and not be afraid of the power or machinations of any enemy. In his hands I am safe. God is the foundation of our confidence; and trusting in him, his people shall never be moved.
For the Lord Jehovah - This is one of the four places in which our translators have retained the original word Yahweh, though the Hebrew word occurs often in the Scriptures. The other places where the word Jehovah is retained in our version are, Exodus 6:3; Psalms 68:18; lsa. Psalms 26:4. The original in this place is ×××× ×× yaÌh yehovaÌh. The word ×× yaÌh is an abbreviation of the word Yahweh. The abbreviated form is often used for the sake of conciseness, particularly in the Psalms, as in the expression âHallelujahâ (××××Ö¼Ö¾×× haleluÌ-yaÌh), that is, praise Yahweh (Psalms 89:9; Psalms 94:7, Psalms 94:12; Psalms 104:35; Psalms 105:15; Psalms 106:1, Psalms 106:48; Psalms 111:1; Psalms 113:1, âet al.â) In this place, and Isaiah 26:4, âthe repetitionâ of the name seems to be used to denote âemphasis;â or perhaps to indicate that Yahweh is the same always - an unchangeable God. In two codices of Kennicott, however, the name ×× yaÌh is omitted, and it has been conjectured by some that the repetition is an error of transcribers; but the best MSS. retain it. The Septuagint, the Chaldee, and the Syriac, however, omit it.
Is my strength and my song - The same expression occurs in the hymn that Moses composed after the passage of the Red Sea, in imitation of which this song is evidently composed; Exodus 15:2 :
Jehovah is my strength and my song,
And he is become my salvation.
The word âstrengthâ means, that he is the source of strength, and implies that all who are redeemed are willing to acknowledge that all their strength is n God. The word âsongâ implies that he is the proper object of praise; it is to celebrate his praise that the âsongâ is composed.
He also is become my salvation - This is also found in the song of Moses Exodus 15:2. It means that God had become, or was the author of salvation. It is by his hand that the deliverance bas been effected, and to him should be the praise.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Isaiah 12:2. The Lord JEHOVAH — The word ×× Yah read here is probably a mistake; and arose originally from the custom of the Jewish scribes, who, when they found a line too short for the word, wrote as many letters as filled it, and then began the next line with the whole word. In writing the word ×××× Jehovah, the line might terminate with ×× Yah, the two first letters; and then at the beginning of the next line the whole word ×××× Yehovah would be written. This might give rise to ×× ×××× Yah Yehovah. The ×× Yah is wanting here in two of Dr. Kennicott's MSS., in one ancient MS. of my own, and in the Septuagint, Vulgate, Syriac, and Arabic. See Houbigant and De Rossi.
My song — The pronoun is here necessary; and it is added by the Septuagint, Vulgate, and Syriac, who read ×××¨×ª× zimrathi, as it is in a MS. Two MSS. omit ×× Yah, see Houbigant, not. in loc. Another MS. has it in one word, ××רת×× zimrathyah. Seven others omit ×××× Yehovah. See Exodus 15:2, with Var. Lect. Kennicott.
