Commentary on Isaiah 41:2

This verse prophetically describes Cyrus of Persia (named in 44:28, 45:1), whom God raises from the east as His instrument. The Hebrew 'tsedeq' (righteousness) indicates God's righteous purpose in raising this pagan king. Cyrus will conquer nations and subdue kings, yet does so as God's unwitting servant, demonstrating that even unbelieving rulers fulfill divine purposes.
