In biblical symbolism, light often represents God's presence, truth, and revelation. The moon reflecting the brightness of the sun indicates a time when God's glory will be fully revealed and His people will experience His presence in a profound way. This imagery can be connected to <a href="/revelation/21-23.htm">Revelation 21:23</a>, where the New Jerusalem is described as having no need for the sun or moon because the glory of God illuminates it.and the light of the sun will be seven times brighter The number seven in the Bible often signifies completeness or perfection. This phrase suggests a period of perfect illumination and understanding, where God's truth and righteousness are fully realized. It can be seen as a prophetic vision of the Messianic age, where Christ, the Light of the World (<a href="/john/8-12.htm">John 8:12</a>), reigns supreme. The increase in brightness symbolizes the fullness of God's blessing and the complete restoration of His people.like the light of seven days This comparison emphasizes the magnitude of the transformation, suggesting a time of continuous and perfect light, akin to the original creation when God declared light to be good (<a href="/genesis/1-3.htm">Genesis 1:3-4</a>). It implies a return to an Edenic state, a restoration of creation to its intended glory. This can also be seen as a type of the eternal Sabbath rest promised to God's people (<a href="/hebrews/4-9.htm">Hebrews 4:9-10</a>).on the day that the LORD binds up the brokenness of His people This phrase indicates a specific time of healing and restoration for God's people. The imagery of binding up brokenness suggests a compassionate and thorough healing process. Historically, this can be related to the return from Babylonian exile, but prophetically, it points to the ultimate redemption through Christ, who heals the brokenhearted (<a href="/isaiah/61.htm">Isaiah 61:1</a>, <a href="/luke/4-18.htm">Luke 4:18</a>).and heals the wounds He has inflicted This acknowledges God's sovereignty in both judgment and restoration. The wounds inflicted by God refer to the consequences of Israel's disobedience and the resulting exile. However, it also highlights God's mercy and faithfulness in restoring His people. This dual role of God as both judge and healer is seen throughout Scripture, culminating in the redemptive work of Jesus Christ, who bore our sins and healed us by His wounds (<a href="/isaiah/53-5.htm">Isaiah 53:5</a>, <a href="/1_peter/2-24.htm">1 Peter 2:24</a>).<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <a href="/topical/t/the_lord.htm">The LORD</a> The central figure in this verse, representing God’s power and authority to heal and restore His people. 2. <a href="/topical/t/the_people_of_israel.htm">The People of Israel</a> The recipients of God's promise of healing and restoration, often representing God's chosen people. 3. <a href="/topical/t/the_moon_and_the_sun.htm">The Moon and the Sun</a> Celestial bodies used metaphorically to describe the magnitude of God's restoration and blessing. 4. <a href="/topical/t/the_day_of_healing.htm">The Day of Healing</a> A prophetic event when God will restore and heal His people, symbolizing a time of divine intervention and blessing. 5. <a href="/topical/t/the_brokenness_and_wounds.htm">The Brokenness and Wounds</a> Represents the consequences of sin and disobedience that God’s people have experienced, which God promises to heal.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><a href="/topical/g/god's_promise_of_restoration.htm">God's Promise of Restoration</a> God promises to restore and heal His people, demonstrating His faithfulness and mercy.

With the passionate joy in light which sees in it, in proportion to its intensity, the symbol of the Divine glory, Isaiah beholds a world in which sun and moon shall shine with a brightness that would now be intolerable, but which shall then be an element of delight.In the day that the Lord bindeth up.--The day of blessing follows on the day of judgment. Even that had, for God's true servants, been the beginning of blessings, but this was but the earnest of a more glorious future. Isaiah reasons as St. Paul does. If one is the "reconciling of the world," what shall the other be but "life from the dead "? (<a href="/romans/11-15.htm" title="For if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the world, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the dead?">Romans 11:15</a>).

"The promise now rises higher and higher, and passes from earth to heaven" (Delitzsch). All nature will become more glorious in the "last times." Moonlight will be as sunlight, and sunlight will be seven times brighter than it is now. Again, there may be an under allegorical sense. The light of truth will shine with greater brilliancy, so that all inch will be enlightened by it. "For the earth shall be full of the knowledge of God, as the waters cover the sea" (<a href="/isaiah/11-9.htm">Isaiah 11:9</a>). As the light of seven days; i.e. as though the light of seven days were concentrated into one. In the day that the Lord bindeth up the breach. At that period in the world's history when God forgives the iniquities of his people, and condescends to reign over them as their actual King, either in this present world or in "anew heaven and anew earth" (<a href="/revelation/21-1.htm">Revelation 21:1</a>; comp. <a href="/isaiah/66-22.htm">Isaiah 66:22</a>), wherein shall "dwell righteousness" (<a href="/2_peter/3-13.htm">2 Peter 3:13</a>).
