Isaías 11:10-16

10 Acontecerá en aquel día que las naciones acudirán a la raíz de Isaí, que estará puesta como señal para los pueblos, y será gloriosa su morada.

11 Entonces acontecerá en aquel día que el Señor ha de recobrar de nuevo con su mano, por segunda vez, al remanente de su pueblo que haya quedado de Asiria, de Egipto, de Patros, de Cus, de Elam, de Sinar, de Hamat y de las islas del mar.

12 Alzará un estandarte ante las naciones, reunirá a los desterrados de Israel, y juntará a los dispersos de Judá de los cuatro confines de la tierra.

13 Entonces se disipará la envidia de Efraín, y los que hostigan a Judá serán exterminados; Efraín no envidiará a Judá, y Judá no hostigará a Efraín.

14 Y ellos se lanzarán sobre el costado de los filisteos al occidente, juntos despojarán a los hijos del oriente; Edom y Moab estarán bajo su dominio, y los hijos de Amón les estarán sujetos.

15 Y el SEÑOR destruirá la lengua del mar de Egipto; agitará su mano sobre el río con su viento abrasador, lo partirá en siete arroyos y hará que se pueda pasar en sandalias.

16 Y habrá una calzada desde Asiria para el remanente que quede de su pueblo, así como la hubo para Israel el día que subieron de la tierra de Egipto.

Isaías 11:10-16 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO ISAIAH 11

This chapter is a prophecy of the Messiah, and gives an account of his descent, as man; of his qualifications for his office, as a Judge and King; of his performance of it; of the peaceableness of his kingdom; of the spread of it among the Gentiles, by the preaching of the Gospel; and of the last and general conversion of the Jews. His original and descent from David the son of Jesse, under the titles of a rod and branch, is described as mean and obscure, expressed by stem and roots, Isa 11:1 his gifts and qualifications for his work, in general and particular, Isa 11:2 the performance of it, both with respect to good men and bad men, in the fear of the Lord, with all equity, righteousness, and readiness, Isa 11:3-5 the peaceableness of his kingdom is figuratively expressed, by the agreement of savage and tame creatures, the former becoming the latter, and so losing their malignant and hurtful nature, through the efficacy of the Gospel, spreading the knowledge of Christ all over the world, Isa 11:6-9 particularly among the Gentiles, comparable to those savage creatures, who, upon the exhibition of Christ in the Gospel; should seek to him, and find rest in him, Isa 11:10 which will be followed or accompanied with a collection of the Jews out of all lands, and the conversion of them, which will be brought about by the power and grace of God, all impediments being by him removed out of the way; the consequences of which will be, peace among themselves, and obedience among the Gentiles, Isa 11:11-16.
