Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Isaiah 60:1

This chapter begins a discussion of the glorious state of the New Israel, that is, the Church of Jesus Christ, during the reign of Christ upon this earth, a reign that began on the first Pentecost after the Resurrection of the Son of God. For ages, this has been the accepted position of Christian commentators on this prophecy. As Lowth expressed it:"The subject of this chapter is the great increase and flourishing state of the church of God, by the conversion and accession to it of the heathen... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 60:1

Isaiah 60:1. Arise, shine— "Arise from your state of darkness and mourning, and enter into a state of light and happiness; that thou mayest be able to enlighten others: shew thy native beauty; suffer thyself to be so strongly illuminated by the glory of the Lord, that thou mayest be a light to others." For this is what is soon after added; and the Gentiles shall walk in thy light. See 1 Peter 4:4. Jesus Christ, the eternal Son of God, is the author and procurer of all light, happiness, and... read more

Thomas Coke

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 60:2-3

Isaiah 60:2-3. For, behold, &c.— The design of the Holy Spirit in this clause seems to be, to describe the state of the nations of the world at the time when God should illuminate the church with this light, as a new advent of his Son, and a repeated manifestation of his divine kingdom. Many have thought from this passage, that almost all the world should be found in a similar state of darkness, wherein the Son of God found it at his first coming: but I hope not. I trust that vital... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 60:1

1. Arise—from the dust in which thou hast been sitting as a mourning female captive (Isaiah 3:26; Isaiah 52:1; Isaiah 52:2). shine—or, "be enlightened; for thy light cometh"; impart to others the spiritual light now given thee (Isaiah 52:2- :). The Margin and GESENIUS translate, "Be enlightened"; be resplendent with posterity; imperative for the future indicative, "Thou shalt be enlightened" (Isaiah 58:8; Isaiah 58:10; Ephesians 5:8; Ephesians 5:14). glory of the Lord—not merely the Shekinah,... read more

Thomas Constable

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Isaiah 60:1

God had called Israel to be a light to the nations (Isaiah 43:10), but presently she was darkness (Isaiah 56:9 to Isaiah 57:13; Isaiah 59:1-15 a). The Lord had promised that He would enable His people to fulfill their calling (Isaiah 57:14-21; Isaiah 59:15-21). Now Isaiah summoned the nation to rise up and shine because her light had arrived (cf. Isaiah 51:17; Isaiah 52:1). God’s glory, rather than His discipline, will rise as the sun upon her. Like a city gleaming in the light of the risen... read more

Thomas Constable

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Isaiah 60:2

God’s glory will rise on His people when there is much darkness on the earth, the darkness of sin and wickedness (cf. Isaiah 8:19-22; Isaiah 59:9-10). He had given light to His people in the past when He led the Israelites out of dark Egypt (Exodus 10:23). The second Exodus from Babylon would be similar. This was true also before Jesus appeared the first time, and it will be true before He appears the second time. His second coming will end the Great Tribulation. read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 60:1-22

1. The light of deliverance so long waited for (Isaiah 59:9) is about to shine. This prophecy received its highest fulfilment at the coming of Christ, the true Light of the world, which was followed by a great ingathering of the nations to the Church of God (Isaiah 60:3, etc.).2.
