Isaías 58:11 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 58:11

And the Lord shall guide thee continually
With his counsel, by his word, and by his Spirit, and that night and day; as he guided the Israelites through the wilderness with the pillar of cloud by day, and the pillar of fire by night: or, "cause thee to rest" ^F11; from adversity, from persecution; to have spiritual rest in Christ now, and eternal rest hereafter: and satisfy thy soul in drought;
or, "in drynesses" ^F12; in an exceeding dry time; when in a dry and thirsty land; when thirsting after Christ and his grace, Christ and his righteousness; after more knowledge of him, communion with him, and conformity unto him; after the word and ordinances; after the presence of God in them; and after more spiritual light, knowledge, and experience: and make fat thy bones;
with the good report of the Gospel, ( Proverbs 15:30 ) that is, quicken, comfort, refresh, and strengthen the soul, and make it fat and flourishing in spiritual things, by means of Gospel ordinances. The Targum is,

``and shall quicken thy body with life everlasting;''

or give rest to thy bones, as others ^F13: and thou shalt be like a watered garden;
like a "garden", the church of Christ is separated from others, by electing, redeeming, and efficacious grace; and like a "watered" one, watered by the Lord himself, and the dews of his grace, and by the ministry of the word; whereby the plants that are planted in it thrive and flourish, lift up their heads, shoot up and grow, and bring forth fruit: and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not;
as there is in every believer a well of living water springing up unto everlasting life, not of themselves, but from Christ, and which is very abundant, and never fails; so there is in the church a spring of the living waters of Gospel doctrines, and of Gospel ordinances; here runs the river of divine love, which makes glad the city of God; here Christ is the fountain of gardens; and here the Spirit and his graces are communicated; all which remain, and never fail; see ( Psalms 87:7 ) ( Isaiah 59:21 ) .

Isaías 58:11 In-Context

9 Aí sim, você clamará ao SENHOR, e ele responderá;você gritará por socorro, e ele dirá: Aqui estou.“Se você eliminar do seu meio o jugo opressor,o dedo acusador e a falsidade do falar;

10 se com renúncia própria você beneficiar os famintose satisfizer o anseio dos aflitos,então a sua luz despontará nas trevas,e a sua noite será como o meio-dia.

11 O SENHOR o guiará constantemente;satisfará os seus desejos numa terra ressequida pelo sole fortalecerá os seus ossos.Você será como um jardim bem regado,como uma fonte cujas águas nunca faltam.

12 Seu povo reconstruirá as velhas ruínase restaurará os alicerces antigos;você será chamado reparador de muros,restaurador de ruas e moradias.

13 “Se você vigiar seus pés para não profanar o sábadoe para não fazer o que bem quiser em meu santo dia;se você chamar delícia o sábadoe honroso o santo dia do SENHOR,e se honrá-lo, deixando de seguir seu próprio caminho,de fazer o que bem quiser e de falar futilidades,
