Christ the Glory of His People Israel
Isaiah 38:7-8
And this shall be a sign to you from the LORD, that the LORD will do this thing that he has spoken;…


Was it this, I wonder, that evoked from Isaiah that unwonted outburst of enthusiasm in the chapter beginning, "Arise, shine, for thy Light is come, and the glory of Jehovah is risen upon thee"? "Thy sun shall no more go down... for Jehovah shall be unto thee an everlasting Light, and thy God thy glory"? If so, how appropriate the words to the occasion. It is easy to identify the Light of Israel with Christ, the Light of the world.

(R. Balgarnie, D. D.)
