7 ni le concedáis descanso hasta que la restablezca, hasta que haga de Jerusalén una alabanza en la tierra.

Isaías 62:7 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 62:7

And give him no rest
Not let him alone, as he desired that Moses would, but wrestle with him as Jacob did, and not let him go without the blessing; be importunate with him, as the widow with the unjust judge; and be incessant in prayer:

until he establish;
his church; which, though founded by him, and built upon the sure foundation of his laying, upon a rock, against which the gates of hell cannot prevail; yet, as to its outward state, is sometimes fluctuating and unstable; it is not always in the same place, nor in the same circumstances; but in the latter day it will be established on the top of the mountains, and will be a tabernacle that shall not be taken down; which is the Lord's work to do, and which he has promised; and therefore may be prayed for in faith, nor should saints cease praying till it is done, ( Isaiah 2:2 ) ( 33:20 ) ( Psalms 48:2 ) ( 87:5 ) :

and till he make Jerusalem a praise in the earth;
matter of praise; till the church and its members become famous in the world, and shall be praised by men, and God shall be praised for their sakes; for the purity of Gospel doctrines and ordinances; for unity in worship; for cordial love and affection to each other; for holiness of life and conversation; for number, and for figure, converts numerous, and many of these great personages; when what is now to its discredit and dispraise will be removed; all false doctrine, or mixtures of it the many sects and parties which go by the Christian name; the sad divisions and animosities among them; the impure lives of many professors; the small number of real Christians; their meanness and poverty.

Isaías 62:7 In-Context

5 Porque como el joven se desposa con la doncella, te desposarán tus hijos; y como se regocija el novio por la novia, tu Dios se regocijará por ti.

6 Sobre tus murallas, oh Jerusalén, he puesto centinelas; en todo el día y en toda la noche jamás callarán. Los que hacéis que el SEÑOR recuerde, no os deis descanso,

7 ni le concedáis descanso hasta que la restablezca, hasta que haga de Jerusalén una alabanza en la tierra.

8 El SEÑOR ha jurado por su diestra y por su fuerte brazo: Nunca más daré tu grano por alimento a tus enemigos, ni hijos de extranjeros beberán tu mosto, por el que trabajaste;

9 pero los que lo cosechen, lo comerán y alabarán al SEÑOR; y los que lo recolecten, lo beberán en los atrios de mi santuario.
