Isaiah 59:20 - Exposition

And the Redeemer shall come to Zion ; rather, and there shall come a Redeemer for Zion , and for those who turn , etc. When the "adversaries " and the "enemies" shall have been punished, repentant Israel shall be saved by the coming of Messiah. As usual, the prophet does not note, or perhaps see, intervals of time, but blends events of various periods into one glorious vision of triumphant deliverance, redemption, and prolonged spiritual life in the Redeemer's kingdom.
