6. And he said, It is a light thing that thou shouldest be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob , and to restore the preserved o[illegible: 1+ letters] Israel: I will also give thee for a light to the Gentiles, that thou mayest be my salvation , unto the end of the earth.

The Lord expressed both in the forgoing and following, verses.

This is but a small favour in comparison of [illegible: 1 word] follows.

That remnant of them which shall survi[illegible: 1+ letters] all their [illegible: 1 word] and desolations.

I will make thy labour [illegible: 1 word] for the illamination and conversion, and salvation of the Gentil[illegible: 1+ letters]in all the parts of the World: Which cannot be said of Isaiah with any truth or colour, and therefore must be understood of Christ, by whom this was literally and fully accomplished. By my Salvation he means the great Instrument and Author of that eternal salvation which I will give to the Gentiles.
