Isaías 61:5 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 61:5

And strangers shall stand and feed your flocks
The several congregated churches of Christ, which shall be set among them, compared to flocks of sheep, as they often are; and which shall be fed with knowledge and understanding, with the words of faith and sound doctrine, by pastors of the Gentile race; who shall be raised up by Christ, and shall freely, and faithfully, and constantly perform the office they are called unto; see ( Acts 20:28 ) : and the sons of the alien shall be your ploughmen, and your
vinedressers:
the sons of Gentiles, who were aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise, ( Ephesians 2:12 ) , but now being converted and brought to the knowledge of Christ, and gifted by him, will be of eminent service in his church; which, as it is "God's husbandry", ( 1 Corinthians 3:9 ) shall be filled and cultivated by them; the fallow ground of men's hearts shall be ploughed up by them, with the plough of the Gospel the Lord succeeding their labours; and the seed of the word sown in them, which, by the blessing of God, shall take root, spring up, and bring forth fruit. And whereas the church of God is compared to a vineyard, and particular churches of Christ to vines; such men as are called by grace from among the Gentiles, and have received gifts from Christ, shall be the keepers and dressers of these vines, plant, and prune, and water them, and do everything requisite unto them; see ( Song of Solomon 2:15 ) ( 7:12 ) ( Song of Solomon 8:11 Song of Solomon 8:12 ) .

Isaías 61:5 In-Context

3 e dar a todos os que choram em Siãouma bela coroa em vez de cinzas,o óleo da alegria em vez de prantoe um manto de louvorem vez de espírito deprimido.Eles serão chamados carvalhos de justiça,plantio do SENHOR,para manifestação da sua glória.

4 Eles reconstruirão as velhas ruínase restaurarão os antigos escombros;renovarão as cidades arruinadasque têm sido devastadas de geração em geração.

5 Gente de fora vai pastorear os rebanhos de vocês;estrangeiros trabalharão em seus campos e vinhas.

6 Mas vocês serão chamados sacerdotes do SENHOR,ministros do nosso Deus.Vocês se alimentarão das riquezas das nações,e do que era o orgulho delas vocês se orgulharão.

7 Em lugar da vergonha que sofreu,o meu povo receberá porção duplae, em vez de humilhação,ele se regozijará em sua herança;pois herdará porção dupla em sua terra,e terá alegria eterna.
