COMMENTARY ON ISAIAH 5:5.62:11-12 (444)

This forecasts the coming of the Savior and our redemption by his coming. It also foretells the granting of riches to those who believe in him.… Concerning that which is new, that is, the church, it may be fittingly said that it is the daughter of Zion.… For whom does he order to proclaim good news to Zion? Those holy spiritual guides, of course, who took on the leadership role in the church and whose job it was to open the gates and to remove the stones from their midst. And what were they to announce?

Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)

Behold, the Lord hath proclaimed unto the end of the world,.... This is not to be interpreted of the proclamation by Cyrus, giving liberty to the people of the Jews to return to their own land, for that did not reach to the end of the world; but of the proclamation of the Gospel, which, as when first published, the sound of it went into all the earth, and the words of it to the ends of the world, Rom 10:

Notes, Explanatory and Practical, on the Old and New Testaments (1832-1869)

Behold the Lord hath proclaimed - Proclamation is made to all nations that Yahweh is about to come and rescue his people. Say ye to the daughter of Zion - To Jerusalem (see the notes at Isa 1:8). Thy salvation cometh - Lowth renders this, ‘Lo!, thy Saviour cometh.’ So the Vulgate, the Septuagint, the Chaldee, and the Syriac. The Hebrew word properly means salvation, but the reference is to God as the Deliverer or Saviour.
