Ésaïe 35:1-2

1 Le désert et le pays aride se réjouiront! La solitude sera dans l'allégresse, et fleurira comme le lis.

2 Elle fleurira, et elle sera dans l'allégresse; elle poussera des cris de joie et des chants de triomphe! La gloire du Liban, la magnificence de Carmel et de Saron lui est donnée. Ils verront la gloire de l'Éternel, la magnificence de notre Dieu.

Ésaïe 35:1-2 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO ISAIAH 35

This chapter is a prediction of the glory and flourishing estate of the Gospel church, and of the blessings received by it from Christ. Its flourishing state is expressed by the fruitfulness of the desert, being made like to Lebanon, Carmel, and Sharon; and by the inhabitants of it seeing the glory and excellency of Christ, Isa 35:1,2 the ministers of the word are directed and exhorted to strengthen the weak, and comfort the feeble minded, by assuring them of the coming of Christ to save them, Isa 35:3,4 when miracles, both in nature and grace, should be wrought; and great alterations should be made in the wilderness, by the power of God, Isa 35:5-7 when a way should be cast up, described; and the persons that should walk in it are pointed at; and the end it should bring them to, everlasting joy and happiness, Isa 35:8-10.
