In the Hebrew text, the name used is "YHWH," which is considered the most sacred name of God, emphasizing His eternal existence and unchanging nature. The use of "The LORD" here underscores the personal and relational aspect of God, who is actively involved in the lives of His people. Historically, this name was revealed to Moses at the burning bush (<a href="/exodus/3-14.htm">Exodus 3:14</a>), signifying God's self-existence and faithfulness.<p><b>will always guide you</b><br />The promise of divine guidance is a recurring theme in Scripture, reflecting God's commitment to lead His people through life's journey. The Hebrew word for "guide" is "nahah," which conveys the idea of leading with care and purpose. This assurance of guidance is not temporary but "always," indicating God's perpetual presence and direction. In the historical context, this would remind the Israelites of God's guidance during their wilderness wanderings, as He led them with a pillar of cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night (<a href="/exodus/13-21.htm">Exodus 13:21</a>).<p><b>He will satisfy your needs</b><br />The Hebrew word for "satisfy" is "sava," meaning to fill or fulfill. This phrase speaks to God's provision, ensuring that His people lack nothing essential. The context here is both physical and spiritual, as God promises to meet the needs of His people in every aspect of life. This echoes the biblical principle found in <a href="/psalms/23.htm">Psalm 23:1</a>, "The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want," highlighting God's role as a provider.<p><b>in a sun-scorched land</b><br />This imagery evokes the harshness and barrenness of a desert environment, symbolizing times of trial and difficulty. The phrase suggests that even in the most challenging and desolate circumstances, God is able to provide and sustain. Historically, the Israelites would have related this to their experiences in the wilderness, where God miraculously provided manna and water.<p><b>and will strengthen your frame</b><br />The Hebrew word for "strengthen" is "chazaq," which means to make strong or firm. "Frame" refers to the physical body, but it can also imply one's overall well-being and resilience. This promise indicates that God not only provides for external needs but also fortifies His people internally, granting them the strength to endure and thrive.<p><b>You will be like a well-watered garden</b><br />This simile paints a picture of abundance, vitality, and beauty. A well-watered garden is lush and fruitful, symbolizing spiritual prosperity and growth. In the arid climate of the ancient Near East, water was a precious resource, and a well-watered garden would be a rare and valuable oasis. This imagery is reminiscent of the Garden of Eden, a place of perfect provision and fellowship with God.<p><b>like a spring whose waters never fail</b><br />The metaphor of an unfailing spring suggests a continuous and reliable source of life and refreshment. In biblical times, springs were vital for survival, and an unfailing spring would be a source of hope and security. This phrase emphasizes the constancy and sufficiency of God's provision, assuring believers that His resources are inexhaustible. It also points to the spiritual truth that those who trust in the Lord will have an unending supply of His grace and strength.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/ellicott/isaiah/58.htm">Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers</a></div>(11) <span class= "bld">In drought.</span>--Literally, <span class= "ital">droughts, </span>either with the force of intensity or as meaning "dry places."<p><span class= "bld">And make fat.</span>--Better, <span class= "ital">shall strengthen, </span>or <span class= "ital">make supple.</span><p><span class= "bld">Like a watered garden.</span>--Comp. <a href="/psalms/1-3.htm" title="And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatever he does shall prosper.">Psalm 1:3</a>, <a href="/context/isaiah/44-3.htm" title="For I will pour water on him that is thirsty, and floods on the dry ground: I will pour my spirit on your seed, and my blessing on your offspring:">Isaiah 44:3-4</a>, <a href="/jeremiah/31-12.htm" title="Therefore they shall come and sing in the height of Zion, and shall flow together to the goodness of the LORD, for wheat, and for wine, and for oil, and for the young of the flock and of the herd: and their soul shall be as a watered garden; and they shall not sorrow any more at all.">Jeremiah 31:12</a>, in the last of which we have the self-same phrase.<p><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/isaiah/58.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div><span class="cmt_sub_title">Verse 11.</span> - <span class="cmt_word">The Lord shall guide thee continually</span>; <span class="accented">i.e.</span> "direct thee in all thy paths - teach thee the way that thou shouldst walk in."
