Isaiah62:9
9 But they that have gathered it , shall eat it, and praise the LORD ; and they that have brought it together, shall drink it in the courts of my holiness .
i. e. The Wine mentioned in the former verse, that have brought it from their several Vineyards, and laid it up in their Cellars, every one shall eat the fruit of his own labours, thou shalt not sow, and another reap, as formerly.
They themselves shall praise him, viz. for his Bounty, and Goodness; and others also, that shall be partakers with them; God will be bountiful, and they shall be thankful.
As I have commanded Deut. 14. 23. in my Courts: Holiness being put for God himself by a Metonymy of the Adjunct, alluding to those anniversary Feasts, and Thank-offerings that were to be eaten in those places about the Temple, and perhaps in special to that part which was appropriated to the Priests, implying herein, that they should be all Priests, and, for ought I know, here may be an allusion to the great Gospel-feast, or Thank offering in the Lords Supper, these Promises being not onely applicable to, but do point at the Soul-protections, and the Soul-provisions of the Church of Christ.
