The fact that we cannot supply our own needs is another idea that seems radically counter-cultural today in a world of radical individuality and determined self-sufficiency. But it is a theme that runs through the Bible. It was self-sufficiency that tempted Adam and Eve, and it was self sufficiency that Abraham surrendered and in so doing brought hope to the world. It was their inability to rely on God's sufficiency that doomed a whole generation to die in the desert.
John N. Oswalt
The NIV Application Commentary: Isaiah
