Isaiah 45:25 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 45:25

In the Lord shall all the seed of Israel be justified
All the spiritual Israel of God, whether Jews or Gentiles; all the spiritual seed and offspring of Christ, to whom he stands in the relation of the, everlasting Father and federal Head; these being given to him, and being in him, are justified in him from all things; and these, all and everyone, shall be brought to see their need of his righteousness, and look to him for it, and receive it from him by faith; and be manifestatively justified in their own consciences, as they will be openly at the bar of God, before angels and men, hereafter. The Targum is,

``"in" or by the Word of the Lord all the seed of Israel shall be justified:''
and shall glory;
in Christ, as the Lord their righteousness; not in themselves, in their own righteousness, holiness, wisdom, and strength, but in this, that Christ is made to them wisdom, righteousness, sanctification, and redemption, ( 1 Corinthians 1:30 1 Corinthians 1:31 ) .
