Isaiah 35:3 - Exposition

Strengthen ye the weak hands . In the Church of the redeemed there will be "weak" brethren as well as strong, "feeble" as well as healthful (see 1 Corinthians 3:1 ; Galatians 6:1 ; Hebrews 5:12-14 ). God, by the mouth of his prophet, calls on the strong to impart of their strength to their weaker brethren, uplifting their "weak hands," as Aaron and Hur did those of Moses ( Exodus 17:12 ), and "confirming" or sustaining their "feeble knees." So St. Paul: "We that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves" ( Romans 15:1 ).
