‏ Isaiah 43:10-12

10. Ye--the Jews, to whom I have given predictions, verified by the event; and in delivering whom I have so often manifested My power (see Is 43:3, 4; Is 44:8).

and my servant--that is, the whole Jewish people (Is 41:8).

believe--trust in.

formed--before I existed none of the false gods were formed. "Formed" applies to the idols, not to God. Re 1:11 uses the same language to prove the Godhead of Jesus, as Isaiah here to prove the Godhead of Jehovah.

11. Lord--Jehovah.

saviour--temporally, from Babylon: eternally, from sin and hell (Ho 13:4; Ac 4:12). The same titles as are applied to God are applied to Jesus.

12. declared--predicted the future (Is 41:22, 23).

saved--the nation, in past times of danger.

showed--namely, that I was God.

when ... no strange god, &c.--to whom the predictions uttered by Me could be assigned. "Strange" means foreign, introduced from abroad.
