Commentary on Isaiah 8:13

The command to sanctify and fear the Lord of hosts provides the alternative to worldly fear. 'Sanctify' means to set apart as holy, recognize as utterly unique and transcendent. Fear of God displaces fear of man—when we properly revere God's majesty and power, human threats diminish to proper scale. 'Let him be your fear, and let him be your dread' transforms fear from paralyzing anxiety into reverent awe that produces obedience. This is the Reformed 'fear of God' that motivates holiness while eliminating servile terror.
