Commentary on Isaiah 61:5

Theological / Devotional

Strangers. That is, Gentiles (see on ch. 56:6). Those who had once been enemies of Israel would become friends. Those who had once laid the land waste would cooperate with Israel in its restoration. Compare ch. 14:1, 2. Israel would lead out in the work, and their Gentile converts would assist (see on chs. 14:1, 2; 56:6-8; 60:3-10).
