Commentary on Isaiah 54:3

Theological / Devotional

Break forth. If Israel would but rise in faith to meet her destiny as a nation, success would exceed her fondest expectations. Thus it will be in our day when the people of God are ready to receive the power God waits to impart to them.

Inherit the Gentiles. Or, “take possession of the nations” (see on v. 2).

The desolate cities. The cities of Israel that had fallen into ruin when their inhabitants were slain by the sword or carried into captivity would be needed once more to absorb the increase in population.
