Jesurun - Jeshurun means Israel. This name was given to that people by Moses, Deuteronomy 32:15; Deuteronomy 33:5, Deuteronomy 33:26. The most probable account of it seems to be that in which the Jewish commentators agree; namely, that it is derived from yashar , and signifies upright. In the same manner, Israel, as a people, is called meshullam , perfect, Isaiah 42:19, They were taught of God, and abundantly furnished with the means of rectitude and perfection in his service and worship. Grotius thinks that yeshurun is a diminutive of yishrael , Israel; expressing peculiar fondness and affection; , O little Israel.
