Isaiah58:11

Ver. 11. And the Lord ſhall guide thee] Or, lead thee: as thou leadeſt the harbourleſs outcaſt into thine houſe, ver. 7,

And ſatisfy thy ſoul in drough] As thou didſt ſatisfy the poor hungry mans ſoul, ver. 10. See Pſal. 33.19. and Prov. 28.27. with the Notes.

And make fat thy bones] i. e. Chear up thy heart: for a ſorrowful ſpirit drieth up the bones, Prov. 17.22. The Vulgar Tranſlation hath it, he will deliver or ſet free thy bones, ſc. from bands and fetters; as thou hadſt looſed or ſet free thy poor brethren from their bands and yokes, ver. 6.

And thou ſhalt be like a watered garden] Filled with the fruits of righteouſneſs, and with ſpiritual conſolations, unspeakable and glorious joyes.

And like a ſpring of water, whoſe waters fail not] Similitudines & Allegoriae, magnam habent gratiam. Who would not now turn ſpiritual purchaſer?
