Notes

Isaiah 60:15

an everlasting pride, a joy from age to age: This would be a major change from the exile in Babylon. Fulfillments of this prophecy include:

the return of the jews from exile,
the arrival of Jesus Christ, and
the inclusion of non-Jewish people in the church.

The final fulfillment awaits the glorious second coming of Jesus Christ, which will bring in the new Jerusalem.

Isaiah 60:10–16

Those who previously oppressed the people of God will one day participate in restoring the holy city (see Isaiah 2:2–4; 19:18–25; Nehemiah 2:8; Amos 9:12).
