John Trapp on Isaiah 19:24-25

Ver. 24. In that day ſhall Iſrael be the third with Egypt] The poſterity of Sem, Ham, and Japh[illegible: 1 letter]t, ſhall concur in the communion of Saints; the pale and partition-wall being taken away.

Even a bleſſing in the middeſt of the earth] The Saints are ſo. Abſque ſtationibus non ſtaret mundus. If it were not for them, the world would ſoon ſhatter and fall in pieces.

Jun.Ver. 25. Whom the Lord of hoſtes ſhall bleſs] Or, For the Lord of hoſtes ſhall bleſs, and then he ſhall be bleſſed; as Iſaac ſaid of Jacob, Gen. 27.33.

Bleſſed be Egypt my people] A new title to Egypt, and no leſs honorable. Vide quantum profecerit Aegyptus flagellis, ſaith Oecolampad. here, i e. See how Egypt hath got by her ſufferings: See ver. 22. She who was not a people, but a rabble of rebels conſpiring againſt heaven, is now owned and taken into covenant.

And Aſſyria the work of my hands] For we are his workmanſhip created in Chriſt Jeſus unto good works, Eph. 2.10.

And Iſrael mine Inheritance] This is upon the matter, one and the ſame with the former: every regenerate perſon, whether Jew or Gentile, is all theſe three in conjunction. O the [non-Latin text not transcribed], the heaped up happineſs of all ſuch! Let Iſrael rejoyce in him that made him; let the children of Zion be joyful in their King, Pſalm 149.2. For the Lord her God in the midſt of her is mighty: he will ſave, he will rejoyce over her with joy, he will reſt in his love, he will joy over her with ſinging, Zeph. 3.17.
