ישעיהו מב:יד פירוש: רש״י ואבן עזרא

I was silent from time immemorial Already for a long time I have been silent about the destruction of My Temple, and always...

I have long time, etc. The first person refers to God.

I am still; I restrain Myself This is present tense. Until now My spirit has constrained Me, and from now, like a travailing woman will I cry.
