Commentary on Isaiah 58:8

Theological / Devotional

Thy light. See on ch. 60:1.

Thine health. What we contribute to the well-being of others reacts to our own good. Our own welfare is intimately related to that of our fellow men.

Thy rereward. Or, “thy rear guard” (cf. ch. 52:12). Compare Israel’s experience in the wilderness (Ex. 14:19, 20). As we walk in ways of God’s choosing we can be sure of His protecting presence.
