Contextual Overview
Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
The glory: That is, the cedar; and as the choice timber of Lebanon beautified Solomon's temple, that footstool of Jehovah; so shall the peculiar advantages of every nation, and of every description of men, concur to beautify the church of Christ, which He has determined to make glorious. The language then becomes more energetic, and the images employed more grand and magnificent; and nothing can answer to the glorious description but some future exalted state of the church on earth, or the church triumphant in heaven; though several expressions seem to limit it to the church below. Isaiah 35:2, Isaiah 41:19, Isaiah 41:20, Isaiah 55:13, Hosea 14:6, Hosea 14:7
to beautify: Ezra 7:27
the place: Isaiah 66:1, 1 Chronicles 28:2, Psalms 96:6, Psalms 132:7
Reciprocal: Exodus 35:22 - every man Ezra 8:30 - the house of our God Psalms 63:2 - in the Hosea 14:8 - I am Haggai 1:8 - I will be Haggai 2:8 - General Revelation 21:24 - the kings
Gill's Notes on the Bible
The glory of Lebanon shall come unto thee,.... Which are the trees that grew upon it, especially the cedars, for which it was famous, as well as the other trees after mentioned. Now, as these were brought into Solomon's temple, and used in the building of that, 1 Kings 6:9, so such shall come of themselves, willingly and cheerfully, being drawn with the cords of love, into the church of Christ, comparable to the tall and strong cedars of Lebanon, and other trees, being eminent for their gifts and graces, and strong in the exercise of them; the more feeble among them being as the house of David, and that as the Angel of the Lord; and being durable, constant, and immovable in the work of the Lord; pillars in his house that shall never go out; ever green and flourishing; never wither in their profession, and always fruitful in every good word and work; of a good smell in the exercise of grace; of savoury conversations, and of a good report in the world; see Psalms 107:12:
the fir tree, the pine tree, and the box together; which may denote persons of different ranks and sizes, both as to worldly and spiritual affairs; and yet will all agree to come together to the church, and will unite in the service and worship of God in it, and be a real glory to it; see Isaiah 41:19:
to beautify the place of my sanctuary; the church, so called in allusion to the tabernacle and temple; and thus the Targum here,
"the place of the house of my sanctuary;''
where the holy God dwells; and which is sanctified by him, and where he is sanctified, and worshipped in a holy and spiritual manner; and which will be beautified in the latter day, when the saints that will come into the church will put on by faith more manifestly the beautiful garments of Christ's righteousness; and be more visibly adorned with the graces of his Spirit, which will shine like so many brilliant diamonds and sparkling gems; and will appear in the beauties of a holy conversation; walk in brotherly love with each other, and unite in sentiments of doctrine, and in acts of Gospel worship; and when the Gospel shall be purely and powerfully preached; the ordinances administered as they were in the times of Christ and his apostles; and Gospel discipline in all its branches restored:
and I will make the place of my feet glorious; alluding to the ark under the mercy seat, over which were the cherubim, and between which Jehovah dwelt, hence called his footstool, 1 Chronicles 28:2, denoting that the church is the place where the Lord grants his presence through Christ, the antitype of the mercy seat and ark; and which is the seat of his rest and residence; where he takes his walks, and where his footsteps of rich grace are seen; where his lower parts, his feet, his works, and acts of grace, are beheld; where he favours with communion with himself; where his power and glory are observed, and his beauty is upon his people; where they see the King in his beauty, and all which will be more manifestly enjoyed in the latter day, and make his church very glorious indeed.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The glory of Lebanon - The âglory of Lebanon,â here means the trees that grew on Lebanon (see the notes at Isaiah 35:2).
Shall come unto thee - That is, thy beauty and glory will be as great as if those valuable trees were brought and planted around the temple.
The fir-tree - (See the notes at Isaiah 41:19; Isaiah 55:13).
The box - (See also the notes at Isaiah 41:19).
To beautify the place of my sanctuary - The site of the temple, as if they were planted around it, and as if the magnificence of Lebanon was transferred there at once. The idea is, that the most valuable and glorious objects in distant nations would be consecrated to the service of the true God.
And I will make the place of my feet glorious - Lowth renders this, âI will glorify the place whereon I rest my feet;â and he supposes thai the ark is meant as the place on which God rested his feet as a footstool. In support of this, he appeals to Psalms 99:5, âWorship at his footstool;â and 1 Chronicles 28:2. So Rosenmuller understands it, and appeals further to Psalms 132:7. Doubtless the main idea is, that the temple was regarded as the sacred dwelling-place of God - and that he means to say, that every place in his temple, even where, to keep up the figure, he rested his feet when he sat on the throne, would be filled with magnificence and glory.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Isaiah 60:13. And I will make the place of my feet glorious - "And that I may glorify the place whereon I rest my feet"] The temple of Jerusalem was called the house of God, and the place of his rest or residence. The visible symbolical appearance of God, called by the Jews the schechinah, was in the most holy place, between the wings of the cherubim, above the ark. This is considered as the throne of God, presiding as King over the Jewish state; and as a footstool is a necessary appendage to a throne, (See Clarke on Isaiah 52:2,) the ark is considered as the footstool of God, and is so called, Psalms 99:6; 1 Chronicles 28:2.
The glory of Lebanon — That is, the cedar.
