Isa. 62:1 For Zion’s sake. That is, for the sake of the redeemed people of God who dwell in Zion (Jerusalem), the city of God. This emphasis on God acting for the sake of his people lies at the heart of Isaiah’s ministry. God will glorify himself in the renewed and increased glory of his people (e.g., 2:2–3; 9:1–3; 26:1–21; 35:1–10; 40:1–5; 65:17–25).

Isa. 62:4 This reverses the situation of 60:15; see 6:12; 49:14.

Isa. 62:5 Your sons are the loyal inhabitants of Zion (here, the eternal city of God; see Psalm 87). so shall your God rejoice over you. God’s delight in his people will be like that of a bridegroom’s delight in his bride.

Isa. 62:6–7 Jerusalem here is the new city of God, where his people will dwell in safety and righteousness forever (see Rev. 21:2, 10).

Isa. 62:10 The people . . . the peoples is Israel plus all others willing to join them (see 56:8; 57:19; John 10:16).

Isa. 62:12 they. The people and peoples of v. 10. You refers to Zion.
