Isaiah61:6
6. But ye--as contrasted with the "strangers." Ye shall have no need to attend to your flocks and lands: strangers will do that for you; your exclusive business will be the service of Jehovah as His "priests" (Ex 19:6, which remains yet to be realized; compare as to the spiritual Israel, Is 66:21; 1Pe 2:5, 9; Re 1:6; 5:10).
Ministers--(Eze 44:11).
eat ... riches of ... Gentiles--(Is 60:5-11).
in their glory ... boast yourselves--rather, "in their splendor ye shall be substituted in their stead"; ye shall substitute yourselves [Maurer].
