Isaiah2:3
3 And many people shall go and say , Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob, and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths ; for out of Zion shall go forth the law , and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem .
Shall not onely have some weak desires of going, but shall be ready to take pains, and shall actually go.
Such shall be their Zeal, that they shall not onely go themselves, but shall perswade and press others to go with them.
They shew the truth of their Conversion, by their hearty desire to be instructed in the way or method of worshipping and serving God acceptably, and by their firm purpose of practising the Instructions given to them.
This last Clause contains the Reason why the People should be so forward to go, and to invite others to go with them; and they may be the Words either of the People, continuing their Speech; or of the Prophet, now returning to speak in his own name.
The New Law, the Doctrine of the Gospel, which is frequently called a Law, because it hath the Nature and Power of a Law, obliging us no less to the Belief and Practice of it, than the Old Law did.
For the Accomplishment of this Promise, see Luk. 24. 47. Act. 1. 8. Rom. 10. 18.
