He is the Author of both; he takes it as much upon him, that he creates darkness, as that he forms light; that is, As the next words expound it, That he creates evil as well as makes peace (Isa. 45.7.) Now if the Lord challenges this as a part of that glory which he will not give to Idols, then, we give him the glory of the only true God, while we acknowledge this.
