Isaiah 61:7 - Forerunner Commentary

Isaiah 61:7

5 ^aStrangers shall stand and feed your flocks,
And the sons of the foreigner
Shall be your plowmen and your vinedressers.

6 ^aBut you shall be named the priests of the Lord,
They shall call you the servants of our God.
^bYou shall eat the riches of the Gentiles,
And in their glory you shall boast.

7 ^aInstead of your shame you shall have double honor,
And instead of confusion they shall rejoice in their portion.
Therefore in their land they shall possess double;
Everlasting joy shall be theirs.

8 “For ^aI, the Lord, love justice;
^bI hate robbery¹ for burnt offering;
I will direct their work in truth,
^cAnd will make with them an everlasting covenant.

9 Their descendants shall be known among the Gentiles,
And their offspring among the people.
All who see them shall acknowledge them,
^aThat they are the posterity whom the Lord has blessed.”
