On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

Their captivity was the punishment of their iniquity; and if, when he had them in Babylon, he had left them to pine away and perish there, and made the desolations of their country perpetual, he would only have dealt with them according to their sins, and it was what such a sinful people might expect from an angry God.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

This was plainly the language of Belshazzar's revels, when he profaned the holy vessels of God's temple at the same time that he praised his idols ( Dan. v. 2, 4 ), and of the Babylonians' demand ( Ps. cxxxvii. 3 ), Sing us one of the songs of Zion. God will therefore deliver his people, because he will not suffer his glory to be thus given to another.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

It - This great work of delivering my people out of Babylon. Name - If I should not deliver my people, my name would be profaned and blasphemed. Glory - I will not give any colour to idolaters, to ascribe the divine nature and properties, to idols, as they would do if I did not rescue my people out of their hands in spite of their idols.
