(21) And in his name shall the Gentiles trust.--Better, shall hope. The Hebrew gives "in his law," but St. Matthew follows the LXX.Verse 21. - And in his Name shall the Gentiles trust; hope (Revised Version). The evangelist thus completes the parallelism with the end of the first stanza (ver. 18) However Jews treat Messiah, Gentiles shall place their hope in his Name, which, in fact, sums up for man all that can be known of God (Matthew 6:9, note). In his Name. So even the LXX. But the Hebrew, "in his Law." Ὀνόματι is possibly due to a confusion with νόμῳ, but is more probably merely a paraphrase bringing out more clearly the fact that the Christian religion is emphatically trust in a Person. The Gentiles; rather, Gentiles, as such. This paraphrase for "isles" in the original is also found in the LXX. (For the whole verse, cf. Matthew 28:19, an utterance never lost sight of by the evangelist.) Matthew 12:21 assures us that the promised Messiah personally carries God’s saving authority (“In His name”), extends His mercy to all peoples (“the nations”), and invites everyone to rest their full confidence in Him (“will put their hope”). The verse is both a fulfilled prophecy and an ongoing mission: Jesus is the exclusive source of salvation, His gospel is for the entire world, and trusting Him secures an unshakable future.
