Isaías 61:11

11 Porque, como a terra produz os seus renovos, e como o horto faz brotar o que nele se semeia, assim o Senhor Deus fará brotar a justiça e o louvor perante todas as nações.

Isaías 61:11 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 61:11

For as the earth bringeth forth her bud
Of tender grass in the spring of the year, after a long and cold winter, being well manured:

and as the garden causeth the things that are sown in it to spring
forth
being enclosed, and better taken care of, and well watered, and dunged, and cultivated; seeds sown in such a rich soil spring up freely, strongly, and constantly:

so the Lord God will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth
before all the nations;
that is, the righteousness and salvation of his people through Christ, by which they shall be justified and saved; and on account of which they shall praise the Lord, and shall be to honour and praise themselves, being interested in those blessings in the sight of all the Christian nations around them. It respects the conversion of the Jews, and their justification and salvation, and the suddenness of it, and the large numbers of them converted, who should rise up at once like the buds of grass out of the earth; and denotes the flourishing condition in which they shall be, like a garden abounding with all manner of flowers and fruit; and suggests how full of joy, thankfulness, and praise to God they should be, and how honourable in the sight of men; and all this will be the Lord's doing, and owing to his efficacious grace. The Targum is,

``so the Lord God will reveal the righteousness and praise of Jerusalem before all the people.''

Isaías 61:11 In-Context

9 E a sua posteridade será conhecida entre as nações, e os seus descendentes no meio dos povos; todos quantos os virem os reconhecerão como descendência bendita do Senhor.

10 Regozijar-me-ei muito no Senhor, a minha alma se alegrará no meu Deus, porque me vestiu de vestes de salvação, cobriu-me com o manto de justiça, como noivo que se adorna com uma grinalda, e como noiva que se enfeita com as suas jóias.

11 Porque, como a terra produz os seus renovos, e como o horto faz brotar o que nele se semeia, assim o Senhor Deus fará brotar a justiça e o louvor perante todas as nações.
