Isaiah 4:6

Isaiah 49:10

10. Messiah will abundantly satisfy all the wants, both of literal Israel on their way to Palestine, and of the spiritual on their way to heaven, as their Shepherd (Isa 65:13; Mt 5:6), also in heaven (Re 7:16, 17).

Ezekiel 34:13-15

13. And I will bring them out from the people, &c.— (Eze 28:25; 36:24; 37:21, 22; Isa 65:9, 10; Jer 23:3).

14. good pasture— (Ps 23:2).

high mountains of Israel—In Eze 17:23; 20:40, the phrase is "the mountain of the height of Israel" in the singular number. The reason for the difference is: there Ezekiel spoke of the central seat of the kingdom, Mount Zion, where the people met for the worship of Jehovah; here he speaks of the kingdom of Israel at large, all the parts of which are regarded as possessing a moral elevation.
