Jesaja 1:19 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 1:19

If ye be willing and obedient
The Targum adds, "to my Word": the Word made flesh, and dwelling among them; who would have gathered the inhabitants of Jerusalem to his ministry, to attend his word and ordinances, but their rulers would not: ye shall eat the good of the land;
the land of Canaan; as the Jews held the possession of that land, before the times of Christ, by their obedience to the laws of God, which were given them as a body politic, and which, so long as they observed, they were continued in the quiet and full enjoyment of all the blessings of it; so, when Christ came, had they received, embraced, and acknowledged him as the Messiah, and been obedient to his will, though only externally, they would have remained in their own land, and enjoyed all the good things in it undisturbed by enemies.

Jesaja 1:19 In-Context

17 Leert goed doen, zoekt het recht, helpt den verdrukte, doet den wees recht, handelt de twistzaak der weduwe.
18 Komt dan, en laat ons samen rechten, zegt de HEERE; al waren uw zonden als scharlaken, zij zullen wit worden als sneeuw, al waren zij rood als karmozijn, zij zullen worden als witte wol.
19 Indien gijlieden willig zijt en hoort, zo zult gij het goede dezes lands eten.
20 Maar indien gij weigert, en wederspannig zijt, zo zult gij van het zwaard gegeten worden; want de mond des HEEREN heeft het gesproken.
21 Hoe is de getrouwe stad tot een hoer geworden! Zij was vol recht, gerechtigheid herbergde daarin, maar nu doodslagers.
