To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices unto me? saith the LORD: I am full of the burnt offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts; and I delight not in the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of he goats.

Yea, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delighteth in their abominations.

Iz 1,1 - O Izaiášovi, o jeho otcovi aj o kráľoch, ktorí sa v tomto verši spomínajú, bližšie v úvode k prorokovi Izaiášovi. O prorockých videniach v spoločnom úvode do prorockých kníh.
Iz 1,4 - Izaiáš často dáva Bohu meno "Svätý Izraela". V iných knihách je tento názov zriedkavý.
Iz 1,8 - Na hore Sion stálo Dávidovo mesto (porov. 2 Sam 5,7–9) s kráľovským palácom, preto sa celý Jeruzalem často volá Sionom. Krajiny a mestá pokladali staré východné národy semitské za ženské bytosti, preto im dávali prímenie: "dcéra", kvitnúce dievča. Po spustošení ostatných miest trčí Jeruzalem uprostred krajiny ako opustené koliby na poli v jeseni po zobraní úrody.
Iz 1,9 - Proroci často prízvukujú, že sa z vyvoleného národa zachránia len zvyšky (Iz 10,21 n.; Am 3,12; Mich 7,18; Jer 30,11; Ez 5,3; Sof 3,13 atď.). Aj do Cirkvi vstúpila len malá čiastka tohto národa. V tomto zmysle cituje tento verš sv. Pavol (Rim 9,29).
Iz 1,10 - Prorok nebojácne a právom prirovnáva ľud a jeho kniežatá k obyvateľom Sodomy a Gomory.
Iz 1,11-15 - Izraeliti prinášali v jeruzalemskom chráme Pánovi obety, ale prinášali ich bez nábožného ducha; takéto obety nie sú Pánovi ľúbeznou vôňou, ale dymom. Kto prichádzal do chrámu bez pobožnosti, zbytočne rozšliapaval jeho nádvoria. Ľud mal prístup len do nádvoria, do samého chrámu smeli len kňazi a do veľsvätyne len veľkňaz, aj to len raz do roka na Deň zmierenia. – Bolo zvykom modliť sa s roztiahnutými rukami. Ruky plné krvi sú nielen ruky vrahov, ale i ruky všetkých, čo hrešia proti láske k blížnemu a vôbec ruky hriešnikov.
Iz 1,18 - Boh vo Svätom písme často volá hriešnikov, aby sa s ním išli pravotiť. Je prirodzené, že by takúto pravotu len Boh mohol vyhrať. – Červená farba, farba krvi, je aj farbou hriechu (porov. v. 15, tiež Ž 51,16). Šarlátovú farbu získavali z výrastkov na listoch akéhosi duba (Quercus coccifera), zapríčinených voškami, ktoré na listy duba kladú vajíčka. Purpur dostávali z tela slimákovitých živočíchov. Tu však vlastne ani nie je reč o purpure. Prorok dva razy spomína šarlát: raz šarlátovú farbu a raz červíčka, vošku, ktorá farbu dodáva.
Iz 1,21 - Zmluva, ktorú Boh uzavrel s národom, často sa predstavuje ako zmluva manželská: Boh je manžel, národ manželka (Oz hl. 1 – 13; Jer hl. 2 n.; Ez hl. 16; celá Veľpieseň: porov. Ef 5,23–32). Izrael sa dopúšťa cudzoložstva, keď slúži cudzím bohom, alebo ináč prestupuje Boží zákon, pretože porušuje manželskú vernosť.
Iz 1,24 - Vo Svätom písme sa Bohu často pripisujú ľudské city, ako tu pomsta, hoci on netresce z pomsty, ale zo spravodlivosti.
Iz 1,25 - Boh vyhubí z národa, čo je bezcenné, hriešne, a zachráni, čo je spravodlivé.
Iz 1,27 - Rozumej: Na národ príde Božie dopustenie, ale Boh zachráni tých, čo sa obrátia, a zahynú len hriešnici.
Iz 1,29 - Kanaánski pohania a podľa ich príkladu často aj Izraeliti konali modloslužbu pod košatými stromami, najmä terebintami, a v posvätných záhradách a hájoch.
