Commentary on Isaiah 1:9
The doctrine of the remnant appears here for the first time in Isaiah, a theme central to his theology. The Hebrew 'sarid' (remnant) emphasizes survivors preserved by grace. The comparison to Sodom and Gomorrah (Genesis 19) invokes total divine judgment, making the preservation of even a small remnant evidence of pure mercy, not merit.
