 A “covenant of My peace” will have been established, based upon the fact that “the chastisement of our peace” (53:5) was borne in the death of their Messiah. This covenant of peace will no doubt be identical with the “New covenant”, which Jeremiah prophesied in his 31st chapter. Its details are given there, but the righteous basis on which it will rest we have just seen, revealed through Isaiah. We may remember also the New Testament word, “The blood of the everlasting covenant” (Heb. 13:20). (Isaiah 54 by F.B. Hole)
