(Show All Books | Show All Chapters)
This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
I will build ... thou shalt be built - The combination of the active and passive to express the same fact implies the infallible certainty of its accomplishment. “Build,” that is, establish in prosperity (Jer 33:7).
adorned with ... tabrets - (1Sa 18:6). Or, “adorn thyself with thy timbrels”; used by damsels on occasions of public rejoicings (Exo 15:20; Jdg 11:34). Israel had cast away all instruments of joy in her exile (Psa 137:4).
dances - holy joy, not carnal mirth.
