The Key Word הִשְׁמִ֙יעַ֙, hish.Mi.a'generated

The verb הִשְׁמִ֙יעַ֙ (hishmi'a) is a Hiphil form of the root שָׁמַע (shama), meaning 'to hear' or 'to listen.' In this context, it conveys the idea of announcing or proclaiming, indicating that the message is being made known to others. The Hiphil form suggests that the subject (the LORD) is causing the action of hearing or listening to take place.

This verb is used frequently in the Hebrew Bible, often in contexts where God speaks to His people, calling them to listen and respond. Here, it signifies the importance of the message being communicated, as it is not just an ordinary announcement but a divine proclamation of salvation.


How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated

This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against.


Sentence Structuregenerated

The verse consists of a main clause introduced by the verb הִשְׁמִ֙יעַ֙, He has proclaimed, which governs the message being announced. Following this, there is a prepositional phrase indicating the audience (אֶל־ קְצֵ֣ה הָאָ֔רֶץ, to the ends of the earth), and an imperative clause directing the command to Zion.

The structure emphasizes the action of proclamation by placing the verb at the forefront, highlighting the urgency of the message. The subsequent phrases elaborate on the content and audience of this proclamation.


Septuagint Backgroundgenerated

The Septuagint translates הִשְׁמִ֙יעַ֙ as ἀκηκούσθω (akēkousthō), which means 'let it be heard.' This choice reflects a similar emphasis on the act of announcing, but it also suggests a broader call for attention to the message.

The use of ἀκηκούσθω indicates that the translators aimed to convey not just the act of proclamation but also the importance of the message being received by the listeners.

The four witnesses to this verse — Masoretic, Septuagint, Samaritan, Qumran

The Masoretic Text (MT) of Isaiah 62:11 reads: 'הִנֵּ֣ה יְהוָ֗ה הִשְׁמִ֙יעַ֙ אֶל־ קְצֵ֣ה הָאָ֔רֶץ אִמְרוּ֙ לְבַת־ צִיּ֔וֹן הִנֵּ֥ה יִשְׁעֵ֖ךְ בָּ֑א הִנֵּ֤ה שְׂכָרוֹ֙ אִתּ֔וֹ וּפְעֻלָּת֖וֹ לְפָנָֽיו׃'. The Dead Sea Scrolls (1Qisaa) largely agree with the MT, with minor differences in spelling and the addition of some articles. The second Dead Sea Scroll (1Q8) has a partially restored text that also aligns closely with the MT but lacks some words, indicating a similar but less complete version. The Septuagint does not provide a direct translation but matches 14 of the 17 words in a different order, suggesting it also reflects the same underlying Hebrew text. Overall, the major witnesses (MT, Dead Sea Scrolls, and Septuagint) show significant agreement, with variations primarily in spelling and textual completeness.

יְהֹוָה (ye.ho.vah) is the proper name of the God of Israel, often rendered as Jehovah or the Lord. It signifies the self-existent or eternal nature of God. The name is closely associated with the revelation to Moses in Exodus 3:12-15 and is used in conjunction with other terms to denote sacred places. Some scholars suggest it derives from a root meaning 'to bring into being.'

(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.

urth ('adhamah, 'erets, 'aphar; ge, oikoumene):

In a hilly limestone country like Palestine, the small amount of iron oxide in the rocks tends to be oxidized, and thereby to give a prevailing reddish color to the soil. This is especially the case on relatively barren hills where there is little organic matter present to prevent reddening and give a more blackish tinge.

'Adhamah (compare 'adham, "a man," and Adam) is from 'adham, "to be red," and is used in the senses: "earth" (Ex 20:24), "land" (Ps 105:35), a "land" or country (Isa 14:2), "ground" (Ge 4:11), "the earth" (Ge 7:4).

Easton's Bible Dictionary

Earth

(1.) In the sense of soil or ground, the translation of the word adamah’. In Gen. 9:20 “husbandman” is literally “man of the ground or earth.” Altars were to be built of earth (Ex. 20:24). Naaman asked for two mules’ burden of earth (2 Kings 5:17), under the superstitious notion that Jehovah, like the gods of the heathen, could be acceptably worshipped only on his own soil.

(2). As the rendering of ’erets, it means the whole world (Gen. 1:2); the land as opposed to the sea (1:10). Erets also denotes a country (21:32); a plot of ground (23:15); the ground on which a man stands (33:3); the inhabitants of the earth (6:1; 11:1); all the world except Israel (

Smith's Bible Dictionary

The term is used in two widely-different senses: (1) for the material of which the earth’s surface is composed; (2) as the name of the planet on which man dwells. The Hebrew language discriminates between these two by the use of separate terms, adamah for the former, erets for the latter. Adamah is the earth in the sense of soil or ground, particularly as being susceptible of cultivation. (Genesis 2:7) Erets is applied in a more or less extended sense-- (1) to the whole world, (Genesis 1:1) (2) to land as opposed to sea, (Genesis 1:10) (3) to a country, (Genesis 21:32) (4) to a plot of ground, (Genesis 23:15) and (5) to…

American Tract Society Bible Dictionary

In both Hebrew and Greek the same word is used to denote the earth as a whole, and a particular land. Only the context can enable us to decide in which of these senses it is to be taken in a given passage.

Thus in Mt 27:45 we might, so far as the original word is concerned, render either "there was darkness over all the land," or over all the earth. The expression "all the earth" is sometimes used hyperbolically for a large portion of it, Ezr 1:2. The word is used of the whole world, etc. In a moral sense, earthly is opposed to what is heavenly, spiritual and holy, Joh 3:31 1Co 15:47 Col 3:2

5. Omission of Name by Some Writers

6. The Name "Zion" in Christian Times

LITERATURE

1. Meaning of the Word:

A name applied to Jerusalem, or to certain parts of it, at least since the time of David. Nothing certain is known of the meaning. Gesenius and others have derived it from a Hebrew root tsahah, "to be dry"; Delitzsch from tsiwwah, "to set up" and Wetzstein from tsin, "to protect." Gesenius finds a more hopeful suggestion in the Arabic equivalent cihw, the Arabic cahwat signifying "ridge of a mountain" or "citadel," which at any rate suitably applies to what we know to have been the original Zion (compare Smith, HGHL, under the word).
