Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Isaiah 33:17
COM commentary-section · status:draft · license:PD
17. Thine —the saints'. king in . . . beauty —not as now, Hezekiah in sackcloth, oppressed by the enemy, but King Messiah ( Isaiah 32:1 ) "in His beauty" ( Song of Solomon 5:10 ; Song of Solomon 5:16 ; Revelation 4:3 ). land . . . very far off —rather, "the land in its remotest extent" (no longer pent up as Hezekiah was with the siege); see Margin. For Jerusalem is made the scene of the king's glory ( Revelation 4:3- : , c.), and it could not be said to be "very far off," unless the far-off land be heaven, the Jerusalem above, which is to follow the earthly reign of Messiah at literal Jerusalem ( Isaiah 65:17-19 Jeremiah 3:17 ; Revelation 21:1 ; Revelation 21:2 ; Revelation 21:10 ). return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-18" class="com-number"
