Isaiah 62
Concise Complete
God's care of his church and people. (1-5) The office of
ministers in preaching the gospel. (6-9) Every hinderance shall be removed from
the way of salvation. (10-12)
Verses 1-5 The Son
of God here assures his church of his unfailing love, and his pleading for her
under all trails and difficulties. She shall be called by a new name, a pleasant
name, such as she was never called by before. The state of true religion in the
world, before the preaching of the gospel, no man seemed to have any real
concern for. God, by his grace, has wrought that in his church, which makes her
his delight. Let us thence learn motives to holiness. If the Lord rejoices over
us, we should rejoice in his service.
Verses 6-9 God's
professing people must be a praying people. He is not displeased with us for
being earnest, as men commonly are; he bids us to cry after him, and give him no
rest,
luke 11:5,6. It
is a sign that God is coming to a people in mercy, when he pours out a spirit of
prayer upon them. See how uncertain our creature-comforts are. See also God's
mercy in giving plenty, and peace to enjoy it. Let us delight in attending the
courts of the Lord, that we may enjoy the consolations of his Spirit.
Verses 10-12 Way
shall be made for Christ's salvation; all difficulties shall be removed. He
brings a reward of comfort and peace with him; but a work of humiliation and
reformation before him; and they shall be called, The holy people, and, The
redeemed of the Lord. Holiness puts honour and beauty upon any place or person,
makes them admired, beloved, and sought after. Many events may have been part
fulfilments of this, as earnests of more glorious times yet to come. The close
connexion between the blessedness of the Jews and of the Gentiles, runs through
the Scriptures. The Lord Jesus will complete his work, and he never will forsake
one whom he has redeemed and sanctified.
