Isaiah33:17

17. Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty , they shall behold the land that is very far off .

First Hezekiah, and then Christ, as before.

Triumphing over all Enemies, and Ruling his own People with Righteousness; in which two things, the beauty and glory of a King and Kingdome, doth chiefly consist.

Thou shalt not be shut up in Ierusalem, and confined to thine own narrow Borders, as thou hast been, but thou shalt have free Liberty to go abroad with honour and safety, where thou pleasest, even into the remotest Countries, because of the great renown of thy King, and the enlargement of his Dominions.

Marginal references: Heb. the land of far distance.
