Isaías 4:2-6

2 En aquel tiempo el renuevo del SEÑOR será para hermosura y gloria; y el fruto de la tierra para grandeza y honra, a los librados de Israel.

3 Y acontecerá que el que quedare en Sion, y el que fuere dejado en Jerusalén, será llamado santo; todos los que en Jerusalén están escritos entre los vivientes;

4 cuando el Señor lavare las inmundicias de las hijas de Sion, y limpiare la sangre de Jerusalén de en medio de ella, con espíritu de juicio y con espíritu de ardimiento.

5 Y creará el SEÑOR sobre toda la morada del Monte de Sion, y sobre los lugares de sus convocaciones, nube y oscuridad de día, y de noche resplandor de fuego que eche llamas; porque sobre toda gloria habrá cobertura.

6 Y habrá sombrajo para sombra contra el calor del día: para acogida y escondedero contra el turbión y contra el aguacero.

Isaías 4:2-6 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO ISAIAH 4

The "first" verse of this chapter Isa 4:1 seems more properly to belong to the preceding chapter, which declares such a scarcity of men, through the destruction of them in war, there predicted, that there should be seven women to one man; who, contrary to their natural modesty, would make suit to him; and, contrary to custom, propose to provide their own food and raiment, only desiring to be called by his name. After which, Isa 4:2, follows a prophecy of Christ, who is described by his names, the branch of the Lord, and the fruit of the earth; and by proper epithets of him, as such, beautiful, glorious, excellent, and comely; and by the persons to whom he is so, the escaped of Israel, to whom various blessings are promised; as the sanctification of them, the source of which is their election, and the means of it the spirit of judgment and burning, Isa 4:3,4 and the protection and preservation of them, by the Lord's creating, as for Israel of old, a cloud of smoke to rest upon them by day, and a shining of flaming fire by night, and by being himself a tabernacle to screen them from heat in the day, and a place of refuge to cover them from storm and rain, Isa 4:5,6.
