Isaiah 62:10

Isaiah 62:10

8 The Lord has sworn by His right hand
And by the arm of His strength:
“Surely I will no longer ^agive your grain
As food for your enemies;
And the sons of the foreigner shall not drink your new wine,
For which you have labored.

9 But those who have gathered it shall eat it,
And praise the Lord;
Those who have brought it together shall drink it ^ain My holy courts.”

10 Go through,
Go through the gates!
^aPrepare the way for the people;
Build up,
Build up the highway!
Take out the stones,
^bLift up a banner for the peoples!

11 Indeed the Lord has proclaimed
To the end of the world:
^a“Say to the daughter of Zion,
‘Surely your salvation is coming;
Behold, His ^breward is with Him,
And His¹ work before Him.’ ”

12 And they shall call them The Holy People,
The Redeemed of the Lord;
And you shall be called Sought Out,
A City Not Forsaken.

John Wesley's Notes

<< Isaiah 62:9

Isaiah 62:11 >>

Go through - It is doubled by way of emphasis. Go meet the Gentiles, whom God purposes to bring into the church. Prepare - Let them not have any obstructions in their way. Stones - That there be no stumbling - stone, or offence in their way. Standard - An allusion to soldiers, that set up their standard that the army may know where to repair from all quarters.
