Isaiah46:13
13. near--antithetical to "far" (Is 46:12; Is 51:5; 56:1; 61:10, 11; Ro 10:6-8).
righteousness--answering to "salvation" in the parallel clause; therefore it means here, "my righteous deliverance"; righteous, because proving the truth of God's promises, and so contrived as to not compromise, but vindicate, His righteousness (Is 42:21; Ro 3:26).
Zion ... my glory--rather, "I will give salvation in Zion; to Israel (I will give) my glory" [Horsley]. (Is 63:11; Psa 14:7; Lu 2:32).
