Thy seed; either,
1. Thy spiritual seed, the church of the new testament, which is accounted Abraham’s seed, or children, Gal_3:7-9,29. Or,
2. Thy natural seed, Christ and his apostles, and other ministers, who were Jews, by whom this work was first and most eminently done.

The desolate cities; those cities and countries which in a spiritual sense were desolate and forsaken by God.
