Tafsiran Yesaya 63:5: Rashi, Ibn Ezra & Tze'enah Ure'enah

וְאַבִּיט֙ וְאֵ֣ין עֹזֵ֔ר וְאֶשְׁתּוֹמֵ֖ם וְאֵ֣ין סוֹמֵ֑ךְ וַתּ֤וֹשַֽׁע לִי֙ זְרֹעִ֔י וַחֲמָתִ֖י הִ֥יא סְמָכָֽתְנִי׃

“Aku memandang, tetapi tidak ada yang menolong; Aku tertegun, tetapi tidak ada yang menopang. Maka lengan-Ku sendiri yang mendatangkan keselamatan bagi-Ku, dan amarah-Ku, itulah yang menopang Aku.”

Rashi

And I looked, and there was no one helping Israel.

Ibn Ezra

And I looked, etc. This is a figurative expression; for in fact God does not need that.

Rashi

and I was astounded An expression of keeping silent, and I have already explained it above (57:16): “And He was astounded for there was no intercessor.”

Rashi

and My fury that supported Me My fury that I have against the heathens (the nations [mss. and K’li Paz]), for I was a little wrath with My people, and they helped to harm them. That strengthened My hand and aroused My heart to mete recompense upon them although Israel is not fit and worthy of redemption.
