10. root —rather, "shoot from the root" (compare Note, see on :- ; Isaiah 53:2 ; Revelation 5:5 ; Revelation 22:16 ). stand —permanently and prominently, as a banner lifted up to be the rallying point of an army or people ( Isaiah 5:26 ; John 12:32 ). the people — peoples, answering to "the Gentiles" in the parallel member. to it . . . seek —diligently ( Job 8:5 ). They shall give in their allegiance to the Divine King ( Isaiah 2:2 ; Isaiah 60:5 ; Zechariah 2:11 ). HORSLEY translates, "Of Him shall the Gentiles inquire "; namely, in a religious sense, resort as to an oracle for consultation in difficulties" ( Zechariah 14:16 ). Compare Romans 15:12 , which quotes this passage, "In Him shall the Gentiles trust." rest —resting-place ( Isaiah 60:13 ; Psalms 132:8 ; Psalms 132:14 ; Ezekiel 43:7 ). The sanctuary in the temple of Jerusalem was "the resting-place of the ark and of Jehovah." So the glorious Church which is to be is described under the image of an oracle to which all nations shall resort, and which shall be filled with the visible glory of God. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-11" class="com-number"
