Jerome

Commentary on Isaiah (420)

(Verse 24) And those who wander in spirit will gain understanding, and murmurers will learn the Law. (LXX: And those who wander in spirit will gain understanding, and murmurers will learn obedience, and those with stammering tongues will learn to speak peace.) And then those who now wander in spirit will understand the knowledge of God, and those who once murmured against the Lord in the wilderness will learn the Law, of which they previously had no knowledge. For if they had received Moses, they would have also received the Lord Jesus Christ, because Moses spoke of him.

They also that erred in spirit - (see Isa 29:9-10). Shall learn doctrine - When” this would occur the prophet does not state. It “may” be intended to denote the times of Hezekiah; or the times subsequent to the captivity; or possibly it may refer to the times under the Messiah. All that the prophet teaches is, that at some future period in the history of the Jews, there would be such a reform that they should be regarded as the worthy descendants of the pious patriarch Jacob.
