John Trapp on Isaiah 51:16

Ver. 16. And I have put my words in thy mouth] O Iſaiah, my ſervant: but eſpecially O Chriſt my Son.

Than I may plant the Heavens, &c.] God doth as great a wonder in ſaying to Zion, Thou art my people in the work of renovation, as if he had made a new world. Whoſoever is in Chriſt, is a new creature, or a new Creation, 2 Cor. 5.17. Chriſt is called The beginning of the Creation of God, Rev. 3.14. Some by planting the Heavens and laying the foundation of the Earth here, underſtand the ſtate of the Goſpel, called by St. Peter a New heaven and a new earth: and the ſame they ſay is called by our Saviour Regeneration, Matth, 19.28. Ye which have followed me in the Regeneration, &c. and by the Author to the Hebrews The world to come, Heb. 2.5.
