4Do not be afraid, for you will not be put to shame; do not be intimidated, for you will not be humiliated. For you will forget the shame of your youth and will remember no more the reproach of your widowhood.

Gill's Exposition on Isaiah 54:5
For thy Maker [is] thine Husband,.... That is, Christ, the Husband of the church, and of every true believer; who secretly betrothed them to himself in eternity, having asked him of his father; and,
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Isaiah 54:5
For thy Maker is thine husband; the LORD of hosts is his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Isaiah 54:5
Thy Maker; he who made thee out of nothing, and therefore can easily fulfil all these promises, how unlikely soever they seem to be; and he who made thee a people, and, which is far more and better, his people, and therefore will not easily nor utterly forsake thee. Is thine husband; he will own thee for his spouse, and will do the part of a husband to thee. The Lord of hosts; who hath the sovereign command of all men and creatures, and therefore can subdue the Gentiles to thee, and can make thee to increase and multiply in so prodigious a measure, even in thine old age, notwithstanding thy barrenness in the days of thy youth, of which he speaketh in the foregoing verse. The God of the whole earth; the God and Father of all nations; whereas formerly he was called only the God of Israel, and the Gentiles had no special relation to him, nor interest in his covenant and favour, as was observed, ,20, and elsewhere.
Trapp's Commentary on Isaiah 54:5
Isaiah 54:5 For thy Maker [is] thine husband; the LORD of hosts [is] his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called.Ver. 5. For thy Maker is thine husband.] Heb., Thy Makers. De sancta Trinitate dictum, saith Junius. Isaac hath the name of the most loving husband we read of in holy writ; but his love to Rebecca was not comparable to this of Christ to his Church, where I doubt not but the apostle Paul had respect to this passage in Isaiah. The Lord of hosts is his name.] Therefore thou, his wife, art sure of protection and provision, of all things necessary "to life and godliness"; for he "hateth putting away," and will bear with more than any husband else would. Surely "as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him" The God of the whole earth.] Of the Church universal. Mariti tui factores tui.
Ellicott's Commentary on Isaiah 54:5
(5) The Lord of Hosts . . . the Holy One of Israel.—We note the combination of the two names so prominent in 1 Isaiah. The “Redeemer” in this context suggests the idea of the next of kin (such, e.g., as Boaz was to Ruth), taking on himself the kinsman’s duty of protection (Rth 4:4-6).
Cambridge Bible on Isaiah 54:5
5. thy Maker is thine husband] Rather, thy husband is thy Maker: He who has entered into this closest and tenderest of relations is none other than He who made thee. “Husband” in the original is a partic.; lit. “he who marries thee”; and both nouns are in the plural after the analogy of words like ǎ ?dônîm (= lord, the so-called plural of majesty). thy redeemer] See on Isaiah 41:14. shall he be called] Perhaps, is he called, parallel to “is his name.” The ground of comfort lies in the thought that He who acknowledges Zion as His wife is the God of the whole earth, the ruler of all the forces of the universe.
Barnes' Notes on Isaiah 54:5
For thy Maker is thine husband - Both these words, ‘maker’ and ‘husband,’ in the Hebrew are in the plural number.
Whedon's Commentary on Isaiah 54:5
5. The Lord of hosts is his name — Jehovah is thy husband as well as thy Maker, thy Redeemer, and the Sovereign of the earth. Barrenness and widowhood — which mean dishonour for a languishing cause — are no more to be feared.
