The heart fills with joy in the knowledge of Him who, despite the treatment He received 1900 years ago, purposes to come again to bless as this world has never been blessed. He will not be content until Jerusalem's "righteousness go forth as brightness, and her salvation as a torch that burneth." He must judge the wicked. He cannot be true to Himself, and allow sin to continue forever, But judgment, the punishment of the Wicked, is His “strange work” (Isa. 28:2121For the Lord shall rise up as in mount Perazim, he shall be wroth as in the valley of Gibeon, that he may do his work, his strange work; and bring to pass his act, his strange act. (Isaiah 28:21)).
Chapters 61 and 62 are a very precious portion of God's Word, written in such language that little of exposition seems needed. They testify of Christ, and that is ever enough to satisfy the Christian heart.
