John Trapp on Isaiah 42:6

Ver. 6. I the Lord have called thee] To the Mediatorſhip.

And will hold thine hand] working wonders by thee, and with thee.

And will keep thee] That thou be not crucified till thine hour be come, and that thou deſpair not when thou ſuffereſt.

And give thee for a Covenant of the people] i. e. For that Angel of the Covenant, Mal. 3.1. and that thou mayeſt reconcile all the Elect in one body to me by thy croſſe, &c. Eph. 2.16.

For a light to the Gentiles] See chap. 9.2.
