ISAIAH 5:20

This morning (1-13-26) on American Family Radio, Jeff Schreve was illustrating how the democrats/the left totally oppose everything President Trump does, says, stands for. He used Isaiah 5:20 to underscore his point.

“Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; who put darkness for light, and light for darkness; who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!”

Meaning of Isaiah 5:20

The following copied from the internet, including this disclaimer:

“Isaiah 5:20 serves as a warning against moral confusion and the distortion of truth. It highlights the danger of reversing moral values, where what is traditionally seen as good is labeled as evil, and vice versa. This verse addresses the people of Judah, emphasizing the consequences of straying from God’s commandments.

Themes

Moral Relativism: The verse critiques the tendency to redefine morality based on personal or societal preferences rather than absolute truths.

Judgment: The term “woe” indicates a solemn warning of impending judgment for those who mislead others by distorting moral truths.

Spiritual Vigilance: It calls for self-examination and discernment among believers to avoid falling into the trap of accepting falsehoods as truth.

Cultural Context

In the time of Isaiah, the people faced significant moral and spiritual decline. The prophet’s message remains relevant today, urging individuals to uphold biblical values and discern right from wrong amidst cultural pressures.”
