Isaiah 11:10-12
11:10 a the heir to David’s throne: Literally the root of Jesse (11:1 b; Rev 5:5 c; 22:16 d).• The Messiah will bring salvation to all the world (Isa 2:1-5 e). Members of other nations will even serve as priests and Levites (66:20-21 f), but only if they repent and believe in the true God.
11:11 g The first time the Lord reached out his hand was at the Exodus; the second time will occur in the future when the Messiah gathers Gentiles (11:10 h) and his own people who live among the Gentile nations (11:11 i). The Exodus remained the paradigm of hope for those in exile (see 11:16 j; 35:8 k; 40:3 l; 43:19-20 m; 48:21 n).
• The remnant of his people included Israelites who survived the Assyrian and Babylonian invasions and were sent into exile.
