Isaiah 49:14

But Zion said Zion is the city of Jerusalem personified (cf. Isaiah 49:16) and, by a common O.T. figure, conceived as the mother of the citizens (see further on Isaiah 49:21). This is no doubt the primary reference of the figure, but since the city derives its religious significance from its being the centre of the national life, Zion really represents the nation of Israel, as in ch. Isaiah 40:2. Hence the complaint of this verse is the same as was previously heard from the lips of Israel (ch. Isaiah 40:27).

my Lord Better, as R.V. the Lord. The word when pointed, as here ("Adônâi), is always equivalent to Jehovah. The suggestion that it may be used in the sense of "husband" (as Genesis 18:12) would demand a different vocalisation ("Ădônî). But although the idea of Jehovah as the husband of Zion was undoubtedly present to the prophet's mind (Isaiah 50:1; Isaiah 54:6) it does not emerge in this verse.
