Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary
in the Lord-- (Isa 45:24-25), contrasted with the idols which cannot give even temporary help (Isa 45:16); in Jehovah there is everlasting salvation (Isa 26:4). not . . . ashamed--opposed to the doom of the idolaters, who, in the hour of need, shall be "ashamed" (see on Isa 45:16).
John Gill Bible Commentary
But Israel shall be saved in the Lord,.... Not the carnal seed of Israel, or the natural posterity of Jacob, for only a remnant of them were saved; indeed, in the latter day, when there will be a general conversion of them, there will be a general salvation of them, all Israel shall be saved; but here the spiritual Israel of God are meant, such as God has appointed unto salvation; who are taken into the covenant of his grace, in which their salvation is secured; who are his spiritual people, whom Christ saves from their sins; who are redeemed by the blood of Christ, and are called by his grace; who believe in him, and hope in the Lord: these "shall be saved": there is a certainty of their salvation, and not a mere probability and possibility of it only. It is not they "may be", but they "shall be" saved; it is the will of God they should, whose will cannot be resisted; they are the purchase of Christ, which he will never lose, and the Spirit is the earnest and pledge of salvation to them: and it is "in" and "by the Lord" they are saved, not in of themselves; their destruction is of themselves, but their salvation is of the Lord; and they are saved as they are in him, and owing to their being in him; they are chosen in him, and hence spring all the blessings of grace and salvation to them; they are representatively in him, as their federal Head; they are openly in him, in effectual calling; and they are justified in him, and by his righteousness, and so saved; and being in him, there is no condemnation to them, nor can they ever come into it. They are saved "by" the Lord; by the Word of the Lord, as the Targum; by Jesus Christ, the incarnate Word; by his obedience, sufferings, and death; by his blood, righteousness, and sacrifice; and by his interceding life, and that "with an everlasting salvation"; which is distinguished, by this epithet, from a temporal one, and is opposed to eternal damnation, the desert of sin; it is the salvation of the immortal soul, and includes in it grace and glory, which are perpetual and everlasting; and the duration of it is owing to the perpetuity of Christ's person, office, and grace: or, "with a salvation of ages", or "worlds" (a): ye shall not be ashamed, nor confounded, world without end; or, "unto the ages of eternity" (b); that is, such who believe in Christ, and are saved by him, they shall not be ashamed, though the makers and worshippers of idols will; they shall not be confounded, neither in this world, nor in the other; they shall not be ashamed of Christ, his word, and ordinances, nor of their faith and hope in him, or of their sufferings for him; they shall not be ashamed in the resurrection morn, their vile bodies being fashioned like to the glorious body of Christ, when others shall rise to shame and everlasting contempt; nor shall they be ashamed at the coming of Christ, and when they stand before him, being clothed with white robes, and having on the wedding garment; when they shall be introduced into his own and his Father's kingdom and glory, into the world of happiness, which will know no end. (a) "salute Seculorum", Pagninus, Montanus, Vatublus; "salvatione seculorum", Cocceius. So Ben Melcch interprets it, this world and the world to come; everlasting salvation takes in both. (b) "in secula perpetuitatis", Montanus, Vatablus.
Tyndale Open Study Notes
45:17 Israel would never again be humiliated and disgraced, oppressed, harassed, or abused. The finality of these declarations suggests that this promise will be fulfilled at the end of time.
Isaiah 45:17
God Calls Cyrus
16They will all be put to shame and humiliated; the makers of idols will depart together in disgrace. 17But Israel will be saved by the LORD with an everlasting salvation; you will not be put to shame or humiliated, to ages everlasting.

The Cry From the Depths
By Basilea Schlink55204:35Radio ShowISA 45:17In this sermon, the speaker emphasizes the importance of crying out to God for deliverance from sin and bondage. They explain that when we cry out to God with all our heart, he will hear us and deliver us, for he is a deliverer. The speaker encourages listeners to be thankful for distress and bondage in their lives, as it forces them to cry out to God for help and freedom from Satan's power. They also warn against listening to the voice of Satan and not crying out to the Lord, as it can lead to being tightly bound by sin. The sermon references Isaiah 45:17 and Ephesians 6 to support the message.
The Battle for Israel Pt 1
By Billy Strachan3501:06:11IsraelISA 1:2ISA 45:17ISA 45:25ISA 59:1In this sermon, the speaker reflects on the lack of awareness among the people in the church about the troubling events happening around them. He quotes from the book of Isaiah, emphasizing that God is not pleased with their religious activities and sacrifices because their hearts are filled with sin and deceit. The speaker also highlights the need for the church to examine itself and be willing to go through the refining process that God desires in order to become what He intends it to be. The sermon concludes with a reminder that the people of Israel, whom God had nurtured and brought up, were the ones rebelling against Him, and that they needed to turn back to Him.
On the Total Depravity of the Heart
By Thomas Reade0GEN 6:5PSA 103:1PSA 145:1ISA 12:1ISA 41:10ISA 43:2ISA 43:25ISA 45:17JER 31:3EZK 36:25Thomas Reade preaches on the total depravity of the human heart, emphasizing the radical and universal corruption that occurred after the fall, as seen in Genesis. He highlights the natural blindness that hinders people from acknowledging their depravity and the need for sovereign grace to cleanse and transform the heart. Reade urges listeners to humble themselves before God, confess their guilt, and accept the gracious offers of pardon and peace through Christ's sacrifice. He reassures believers of God's promise of forgiveness, salvation, and eternal consolation, declaring that those who trust in the Lord will be strengthened, upheld, and never forsaken.
