以賽亞書 41:2 註釋:Rashi, Ibn Ezra & Tze'enah Ure'enah

מִ֤י הֵעִיר֙ מִמִּזְרָ֔ח צֶ֖דֶק יִקְרָאֵ֣הוּ לְרַגְל֑וֹ יִתֵּ֨ן לְפָנָ֤יו גּוֹיִם֙ וּמְלָכִ֣ים יַ֔רְדְּ יִתֵּ֤ן כֶּֽעָפָר֙ חַרְבּ֔וֹ כְּקַ֥שׁ נִדָּ֖ף קַשְׁתּֽוֹ׃

是誰從東方喚起那人,讓公義在他每一步迎接他?是誰把列國交在他面前,使他管轄君王,使他們在他的刀下如塵土,在他的弓前如被風吹散的碎稭?

Rashi

Who aroused from the East one whom righteousness accompanied? Who aroused Abraham to bring him from Aram which is in the East and the righteousness that he would perform that was opposite his feet wherever he went.

Ibn Ezra

ממזרח The man from the east.2A. V., (Who raised up the righteous man) from the East. The ancients refer this expression to Abraham, who defeated the kings (Gen. xiv.), and broke the idols;2aComp. Bereshith Rabba, xxxviii. especially because of the words the seed of Abraham, my friend, (ver. 8). This is not impossible, but I refer it rather to Cyrus; because all these chapters are connected by their contents; comp. calling a ravenous bird from the east (46:11) and I have raised up one from the north, and he shall come; from the rising of the sun shall he call upon my name (41:25); besides, the name of Cyrus is distinctly mentioned 44:28 and 45:1.

Rashi

He made his sword like dust [Jonathan paraphrases:] He cast slain ones before his sword like dust. He suffered his sword to take its toll of casualties as [numerous as] grains of dust, and his bow He suffered to take its toll of casualties who would fall like wind blown stubble.
