Commentary on Isaiah 45:4
God explains why He uses Cyrus: 'For Jacob my servant's sake, and Israel mine elect.' Cyrus is instrument, Israel is purpose. God surnamed Cyrus (gave him a title/designation) though Cyrus 'hast not known me.' The pagan conqueror unknowingly serves the God he doesn't worship - a profound statement of divine sovereignty.
