The Key Word — גֹּאֲלֵ֥נוּ, go.'a.Le.nugenerated
The word גֹּאֲלֵ֥נוּ (go'alenu) is a participle form of the verb גָּאַל (ga'al), which means to redeem. This term signifies the role of a kinsman-redeemer, someone who has the responsibility to rescue or buy back a relative in need. The parsing indicates that it is masculine singular, referring to God as the Redeemer of the community.
This word carries the weight of familial obligation and protection, emphasizing God's commitment to His people. In this context, it underscores the idea that God is not only their Father but also their Redeemer, who acts to restore and save them from their troubles.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
Translations generally agree on the meaning of גֹּאֲלֵ֥נוּ, rendering it as Redeemer in the BSB, KJV, ASV, YLT, WEB, and BBE.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The verse is structured around a series of clauses that express the speaker's relationship with God and the lack of recognition from Abraham and Israel. The finite verb יְדָעָ֔נוּ (yeda'nu, 'he knows us') serves as a pivotal point, connecting the subjects (God, Abraham, Israel) and their actions.
The sentence begins with a conjunction כִּי (ki, 'for'), establishing a causal relationship, and the subjects are clearly defined, with God being addressed directly. The structure emphasizes the contrast between divine recognition and human ignorance.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
In the Septuagint, the Hebrew גֹּאֲלֵ֥נוּ is rendered as ἡμᾶς (hēmas), which translates to 'us.' This choice reflects a shift from the specific role of a redeemer to a more general reference to the people, potentially broadening the understanding of the community's relationship with God.
This translation highlights God's protective nature over His people while omitting the familial aspect of the kinsman-redeemer, which is significant in the Hebrew context.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Isaiah 63:16 expresses a deep plea to God, recognizing Him as Father and Redeemer, even when Abraham and Israel do not acknowledge the people. The verse highlights God's eternal nature and His commitment to redeem His people, despite their feelings of estrangement.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
God being our Father signifies a protective and nurturing relationship, where He cares for His people as a father would for his children.
This highlights a sense of alienation felt by the people, contrasting their relationship with God against the historical figures who are expected to recognize them.
The title of Redeemer emphasizes God's active role in saving and restoring His people, reflecting His commitment to their well-being and deliverance.
The reference to God as Redeemer from Everlasting underscores His eternal existence and unchanging nature, assuring His people of His constant presence and support.

- In what ways do I experience God's fatherly care in my life?
- How can I better recognize and acknowledge God's presence in my daily experiences?
- What does it mean for me to understand God as my Redeemer?
- How can I help others who feel estranged from God to recognize His love and care?
The early church on this verse — how the Fathers read it
The quote from Cyril of Jerusalem emphasizes God's paternal care for His people, contrasting His relationship with Christ and humanity.
our Father: God is so named not as begetting them of Himself, but as caring for them and shielding them. But whereas God, as we have said, is in an improper sense the Father of men, of Christ alone He is the Father by nature,Early Church Fathers on Isaiah 63 →

Charles John Ellicott1819–1905Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(16) Doubtless thou art our father, though Abraham . . .—Better, For Abraham is ignorant of us. The passage is striking as being an anticipation of the New Testament thought, that the Fatherhood of, God rests on something else than hereditary descent, and extends not to a single nation only, but to all mankind. Abraham might disclaim his degenerate descendants, but Jehovah would still recognise them. Implicitly, at least, the words contain the truth that “God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham” (Matthew 3:9). He is still their Redeemer. The words may possibly imply the thought that, as in the case of Jeremiah (2Ma 15:13-14), and Rachel (Jeremiah 31:15), Abraham was…

Our Redeemer; thy name is from everlasting - "O deliver us for the sake of thy name."] The present text reads, as our translation has rendered it, "Our Redeemer, thy name is from everlasting." But instead of מעולם meolam, from everlasting, an ancient MS. has למען lemaan, for the sake of, which gives a much better sense.

CambridgeThe Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges16. The verse reads: For thou art our Father; for Abraham knoweth us not and Israel doth not recognise us; Thou Jehovah art our Father; our Redeemer from of old is Thy Name. Jehovah is the Father of Israel, i.e. the Creator and founder of the nation (Deuteronomy 32:6; Malachi 2:10; cf. Exodus 4:22; Hosea 11:1; Isaiah 1:2; Jeremiah 3:4; Jeremiah 3:19; Malachi 1:6). The idea of the divine Fatherhood is not yet extended in the O.T. to the individual believer, although a remarkable anticipation of the N.T. doctrine is found in Sir 23:1; Sir 23:4 : “O Lord, Father and Master of my life, … O Lord, Father and God of my life.” (Cheyne.)

Abraham
Father of a multitude, son of Terah, named (Gen. 11:27) before his older brothers Nahor and Haran, because he was the heir of the promises. Till the age of seventy, Abram sojourned among his kindred in his native country of Chaldea. He then, with his father and his family and household, quitted the city of Ur, in which he had hitherto dwelt, and went some 300 miles north to Haran, where he abode fifteen years. The cause of his migration was a call from God (Acts 7:2-4). There is no mention of this first call in the Old Testament; it is implied, however, in Gen. 12. While they tarried at Haran, Terah died at the age of 205 years. Abram now received a second and more definite call, accompanied by a promise from God (Gen.…
(father of a multitude) was the son of Terah, and founder of the great Hebrew nation. (B.C. 1996-1822.) His family, a branch of the descendants of Shem, was settled in Ur of the Chaldees, beyond the Euphrates, where Abraham was born. Terah had two other sons, Nahor and Haran. Haran died before his father in Ur of the Chaldees, leaving a son, Lot; and Terah, taking with him Abram, with Sarai his wife and his grandson Lot, emigrated to Haran in Mesopotamia, where he died. On the death of his father, Abram, then in the 75th year of his age, with Sarai and Lot, pursued his course to the land of Canaan, whither he was directed by divine command, (Genesis 12:5) when he received the general promise that he should become the founder of a great nation, and that all the families of the earth should be blessed in him. He passed through the…
Father of a multitude, Ge 17:4,5; the great founder of the Jewish nation. He was a son of Terah, a descendant of Shem, and born in Ur, a city of Chaldea, A.M. 2008, B. C. 1996, Ge 11:27,28. Here he lived seventy years, when at the call of God he left his idolatrous kindred, and removed to Haran, in Mesopotamia, Ac 7:2-4, accompanied by his father, his wife Sarai, his brother Nahor, and his nephew Lot. A few years after, having buried his father, he again removed at the call of God, with his wife and nephew, and entered the land of promise as a nomad or wandering shepherd. Sojourning for a time at Shechem, he built here, as was his custom, an alter to the Lord, who appeared to him, and promised that land to his seed. Removing…

Israel
The name conferred on Jacob after the great prayer-struggle at Peniel (Gen. 32:28), because “as a prince he had power with God and prevailed.” (See JACOB.) This is the common name given to Jacob’s descendants. The whole people of the twelve tribes are called “Israelites,” the “children of Israel” (Josh. 3:17; 7:25; Judg. 8:27; Jer. 3:21), and the “house of Israel” (Ex. 16:31; 40:38).
This name Israel is sometimes used emphatically for the true Israel (Ps. 73:1: Isa. 45:17; 49:3;
(the prince that prevails with God). The name given, (Genesis 32:28) to Jacob after his wrestling with the angel, (Hosea 12:4) at Peniel. Gesenius interprets Israel "soldier of God." It became the national name of the twelve tribes collectively. They are so called in (Exodus 3:16) and afterward. It is used in a narrower sense, excluding Judah, in (1 Samuel 11:8; 2 Samuel 20:1; 1 Kings 12:16) Thenceforth it was assumed and accepted as the name of the northern kingdom. After the Babylonian captivity, the returned exiles resumed the name Israel as the designation of…

By the name Israel is sometimes understood all the posterity of Israel, the seed of Jacob, 1Co 10:18; sometimes all true believers, his spiritual seed, Ro 9:6; and sometimes the kingdom of Israel, or the ten tribes, as distinct from the kingdom of Judah.

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.'
