Commentary
Commentary on Isaiah 11:10
Theological / DevotionalA root of Jesse. See on v. 1.
The Gentiles. This is a prophecy of Christ and of the giving of the gospel to all the world (see pp. 28-30). In every part of the earth the Messiah will be held up before men and women as the means of salvation from sin. Messengers of Christ will stand before men and women as His representatives, pointing to Him as the ensign to guide the peoples of earth in the way of light and blessing.
Rest. Heb. nuach, “resting place,” or “dwellings” (RSV). See John 14:2, 3. Those who find Christ find peace and rest, a peace that the world cannot give and that the wicked can never know. The most blessed experience possible for man is to enjoy the “rest” Christ offers, rest from the cares and burdens of sin (see on Matt. 11:28). Thus man may find in this world a brief and happy foretaste of the glorious rest and peace of the eternal world.
