Commentaire sur Isaïe 41:11
הֵ֤ן יֵבֹ֙שׁוּ֙ וְיִכָּ֣לְמ֔וּ כֹּ֖ל הַנֶּחֱרִ֣ים בָּ֑ךְ יִֽהְי֥וּ כְאַ֛יִן וְיֹאבְד֖וּ אַנְשֵׁ֥י רִיבֶֽךָ׃
En vérité, ils connaîtront la honte et la confusion, tous ceux qui sont enflammés contre toi; ils seront réduits à néant, ils périront, tous ceux qui te cherchent querelle.
Ibn Ezra on Isaiah
הנחרים They that were incensed. It is the Niphal;20Of חרה to burn.
21 To God all eternity is one indivisible whole. Time and space and their divisions are not in real existence, but postulates of and for our reason and imagination. Comp. חרי lit. the burning; נחרו were angry (Song 1:6). The Babylonians are meant; when God punished and destroyed Babylon, He released His people, who returned home to their country with the permission of Cyrus.
