Komentaryo sa Isaias 44:24: Rashi & Ibn Ezra

כֹּֽה־אָמַ֤ר יְהוָה֙ גֹּאֲלֶ֔ךָ וְיֹצֶרְךָ֖ מִבָּ֑טֶן אָנֹכִ֤י יְהוָה֙ עֹ֣שֶׂה כֹּ֔ל נֹטֶ֤ה שָׁמַ֙יִם֙ לְבַדִּ֔י רֹקַ֥ע הָאָ֖רֶץ מי אתי [מֵאִתִּֽי׃]

Ganito ang sabi ng Walang-Hanggan, ang iyong Manunubos, at ang humubog sa iyo mula pa sa sinapupunan: Ako ang Walang-Hanggan na gumagawa ng lahat ng bagay, na nag-iisang nag-unat ng mga langit, na naglatag ng lupa sa pamamagitan ng aking sarili lamang.

Rashi

Ibn Ezra

That maketh all things, which I desire; you may infer it from the fact, that I, by myself, stretch forth the heaven.

מאתי By myself.

E. refutes this idea by substituting the figurative meaning from or with my strength. It is written in two words, מי אתי. who is with me, which is the same as I alone. Consider well the words of the text: who stretcheth40The use of the present tense.40The use of the present tense. forth the heavens and spreadeth abroad the earth ; they teach us that it is God who is continually keeping heaven and earth in existence.
