Isaiah 28:23-29

The chapter ends very graciously, in showing the Church, under the similitude of the husbandman, how the Lord takes care of his household. And as Jesus hath sweetly set forth the same blessed truths, under the same imagery; we cannot be at a loss to apprehend the whole of the instruction. Ye are God's husbandry, said the apostle; and Jesus himself saith, I am the vine, ye are the branches. Oh! for grace to be thus favoured, and to know that we are brought into the vineyard, the Church of the Lord of hosts. Isa 5:7 ; 1 Corinthians 3:9 ; John 15:1 , etc.
