Isaías 60:16

16 Te alimentarás con la leche de las naciones,con la riqueza de los reyes serás amamantada.Sabrás entonces que yo, el SEÑOR, soy tu Salvador;que yo, el Poderoso de Jacob, soy tu Redentor.

Isaías 60:16 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 60:16

Thou shalt also suck the milk of the Gentiles
Partake of their riches and wealth; so the Targum,

``and ye shall be satisfied with the substance of the people:''

or drink of the sincere milk of the word of the Gospel, which Gentiles have been favoured with for many ages; for this seems to have regard to Jewish converts, though not to them only, but as they, with the converted Gentiles, will make up one church state, and partake of the same privileges: and shall suck the breast of kings;
who shall now be converted in various places, come into the church, and be nursing fathers to it; help and assist the people of God with their riches to carry on divine worship in an honourable manner; and to protect and defend them with their power; see ( Psalms 72:9 Psalms 72:10 ) ( Isaiah 49:23 ) ( 60:11 ) . The Targum is,

``in the spoil of kings ye shall delight yourselves;''

and it may also design the breasts of consolation, the ordinances of the Gospel, such as Christian kings will suck, and Jews and Gentiles shall do the same, ( Isaiah 66:11 ) , and thou shalt know that I the Lord am thy Saviour and thy Redeemer,
the mighty One of Jacob;
the Jews, being called, shall seek the Lord their God, the true Messiah, and shall look unto him by faith, whom they have pierced; shall know, own, and acknowledge him to be their Redeemer and Saviour; who must be fit and qualified for such an office and work, and equal to it, being the mighty One of Jacob, whom before they and their ancestors rejected and despised.

Isaías 60:16 In-Context

14 Ante ti vendrán a inclinarselos hijos de tus opresores;todos los que te desprecianse postrarán a tus pies,y te llamarán “Ciudad del SEÑOR”,“Sión del Santo de Israel”.

15 »Aunque fuiste abandonada y aborrecida,y nadie transitaba por tus calles,haré de ti el orgullo eternoy la alegría de todas las generaciones.

16 Te alimentarás con la leche de las naciones,con la riqueza de los reyes serás amamantada.Sabrás entonces que yo, el SEÑOR, soy tu Salvador;que yo, el Poderoso de Jacob, soy tu Redentor.

17 En vez de bronce te traeré oro;en lugar de hierro, plata.En vez de madera te traeré bronce,y en lugar de piedras, hierro.Haré que la paz te gobierne,y que la justicia te rija.

18 Ya no se sabrá de violencia en tu tierra,ni de ruina y destrucción en tus fronteras,sino que llamarás a tus muros “Salvación”,y a tus puertas, “Alabanza”.
