イザヤ書 60:21-22 JC

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 60:21

Thy people also shall be all righteous . Here the prophet touches the root of the matter. Pain and sorrow are the fruit of sin. Once let sin disappear, and sorrow goes with it. It is the foundation of all the glory and all the happiness of the redeemed in their Lord's final kingdom, that they are cleansed from all defilement of sin, and "are as the angels" ( Mark 12:25 ). They shall inherit the land; rather, the earth— the "new heavens and new earth" of Isaiah:17; Isaiah 66:22 . The... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 60:21

The heaven of universal righteousness. "Thy people also shall be all righteous." "There are no people on earth that are all righteous; there is a mixture of some bad in the best societies on this side of heaven; but there are no mixtures there. They shall be ' all righteous,' that is, they shall be entirely righteous; as there shall be none corrupt among them, so there shall be no corruption among them; the spirit of just men shall there be made perfect" (Matthew Henry).

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 60:22

A little one ; i.e. the "little flock" of our Lord's own time on earth ( Luke 12:32 ), will become a strong nation—a countless multitude ( Revelation 7:9 ). In his time; rather, in its time , when the time fixed in God's counsels for the final establishment of Christ's kingdom arrives. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 60:22

Multiplication. "A little one shall become a thousand," etc. This is a Divine rebuke of our estimates. We look at outward magnitudes; God looks at that which has inward extension in itself. I. THIS IS TRUE HISTORICALLY . Israel found it so. The Pilgrim Fathers found it so. And many Churches have found it so, where there has been loving co-operation and personal consecration. Look how the despised mission work in India grew to a mighty force, despite the satirical review of... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 60:21

Thy people also shall be all righteous - (See the notes at Isaiah 4:2).They shall inherit the land for ever - (See the notes at Isaiah 49:8; Isaiah 54:3; compare Isaiah 65:9; Matthew 5:5).The branch of my planting - On the meaning of the word branch, see the notes at Isaiah 11:1; Isaiah 14:19. Here it means a scion or shoot which Yahweh had planted, and which had sprung up under his culture. Grotius supposes it means posterity. The idea seems to be, that they would inherit the land and all... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 60:22

A little one shall become a thousand - There shall be a great increase, as if one, and that the smallest, should be multiplied to a thousand. The idea is, that the people, then small in number, would be greatly increased by the accession of the Gentile world. Lowth and Noyes render this, ‘The little one.’ Grotius, ‘The least one.’ So the Septuagint, Ο ὀλιγιστὸς Ho oligistos.I the Lord will hasten it in his time - Noyes, ‘Its time.’ Lowth ‘Due time.’ Septuagint, ‘I will do it in the proper... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 60:21-22

Isaiah 60:21-22. Thy people shall be all righteous Through righteousness imputed to them, Romans 4:3-8; Romans 4:23-24; implanted in them, Ephesians 4:22-24; and practised by them, 1 John 3:7; in other words, through the justification of their persons, the renovation of their nature, and their practical obedience to God’s law. “It was proper,” says Vitringa, “that the prophetic discourse, big with such excellent promises, should set forth the quality of the citizens of this blessed city;... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Isaiah 60:1-22

A glorious kingdom (60:1-22)In Chapters 60-62 the scene returns to Babylon, where the captive Israelites look forward to the return to their homeland and the reconstruction of their national life. Here, more than in the previous chapters, the blessings seem to go far beyond those experienced by post-exilic Israel. (See sub-section ‘New Jerusalem’ at the introduction to Chapters 40-66.)When sin is removed and enemies are punished, Israel will receive the glory it has always hoped for. Not only... read more

Thy People . . . all righteous. fulfilment. for ever. This settles the whole question as to any fulfilment in the past. My planting.

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 60:21-22

Isaiah 60:21-22. Thy people also shall be all righteous— It was proper that the prophetic discourse, big with such excellent promises, should set forth the quality of the citizens of this blessed and fortunate city; for so many and excellent privileges cannot belong to any but the most faithful through divine grace. The prophet, therefore, teaches that the inhabitants of this city should be all righteous or just; where there can be no doubt that the righteousness of faith is meant; of living... read more
