This phrase signifies a prophetic vision where the righteousness of God's people becomes evident to all the world. Historically, Israel was chosen to be a light to the nations, a theme that resonates throughout the Old Testament. The righteousness mentioned here is not merely moral uprightness but a reflection of God's covenantal faithfulness and transformative power in His people. This righteousness is ultimately fulfilled in the person of Jesus Christ, whose life and sacrifice bring righteousness to all who believe.<p><b>and all kings your glory</b><br />The term "kings" refers to the rulers and leaders of the earth. In ancient times, kings were seen as the ultimate authority and power. The phrase suggests that even the most powerful will recognize the glory of God's people. "Glory" in Hebrew is "kabod," which implies weightiness, honor, and splendor. This glory is not self-derived but is a reflection of God's own glory bestowed upon His people. Historically, Israel's glory was seen in moments of divine intervention and blessing, and prophetically, it points to the ultimate glorification of God's people in the eschatological future.<p><b>you will be called by a new name</b><br />In biblical times, names were deeply significant, often reflecting character or destiny. The promise of a "new name" indicates a transformation and a new identity given by God. This new name signifies a change in status and purpose, aligning with God's redemptive plan. In <a href="/revelation/2-17.htm">Revelation 2:17</a>, believers are promised a new name, symbolizing their new life in Christ. This transformation is a central theme in Christian theology, where believers are made new creations in Christ (<a href="/2_corinthians/5-17.htm">2 Corinthians 5:17</a>).<p><b>that the mouth of the LORD will bestow</b><br />The "mouth of the LORD" emphasizes the divine origin and authority of the new name. In Scripture, God's spoken word is powerful and creative, as seen in the creation narrative in Genesis. When God speaks, His words accomplish His purposes (<a href="/isaiah/55-11.htm">Isaiah 55:11</a>). The bestowal of a new name by God's mouth underscores the certainty and divine initiative in the transformation of His people. It is a reminder of God's sovereignty and His active role in the redemption and restoration of His people. This divine act is a source of hope and assurance for believers, affirming that their identity and destiny are secure in God's hands.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/ellicott/isaiah/62.htm">Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers</a></div>(2) <span class= "bld">Thou shalt be called by a new name . . .</span>--So in <a href="/jeremiah/33-16.htm" title="In those days shall Judah be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell safely: and this is the name with which she shall be called, The LORD our righteousness.">Jeremiah 33:16</a>, the name of the restored city is to be "Jehovah our Righteousness." The root-thought is that the altered state is to be embodied, as in the case of Abraham and Israel, in a new name. Here, however, the effect of the promise is heightened, as in <a href="/revelation/2-17.htm" title="He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit said to the churches; To him that overcomes will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knows saving he that receives it.">Revelation 2:17</a>; <a href="/revelation/3-12.htm" title="Him that overcomes will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write on him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from my God: and I will write on him my new name.">Revelation 3:12</a>, by the absence of the new 'name, as something which is to transcend all experience.<p><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/isaiah/62.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div><span class="cmt_sub_title">Verse 2.</span> - <span class="cmt_word">The Gentiles shall see</span>, etc. A continuation of the account of Israel's final glory, as given in <a href="/isaiah/61-6.htm">Isaiah 61:6-9</a>. What the Gentiles are especially to see and admire is Israel's righteousness. This may point to those acknowledgments of the purity and excellence of the early Church which were made by the heathen (Plin., 'Epist.,' 10:97), and which culminated in the saying, "See how these Christians love one another!" The sceptic Gibbon acknowledges, among the causes of the success of Christianity, "the virtues of the early Christians." All kings (comp. <a href="/isaiah/49-7.htm">Isaiah 49:7, 23</a>; <a href="/isaiah/60-3.htm">Isaiah 60:3</a>; <a href="/psalms/50-22.htm">Psalm 50:22</a>:11). <span class="cmt_word">Thou shalt be called by a new name</span> (comp. vers. 4 and 12; and see also <a href="/isaiah/65-15.htm">Isaiah 65:15</a>). It is not altogether clear what the "new name" is, since in the remainder of the present chapter more than one name is suggested. Rosenmuller supposes" Hephzibah" to be meant. Dr. Kay suggests "the holy people," and notes that the title of "holy ones," or "saints," is given by St. Paul to all Christians (<a href="/acts/26-10.htm">Acts 26:10</a>; <a href="/romans/1-7.htm">Romans 1:7</a>; <a href="/romans/16-15.htm">Romans 16:15</a>; <a href="/1_corinthians/1-2.htm">1 Corinthians 1:2</a>, etc.). Mr. Cheyne thinks that it is some unknown title of honour, akin to that mentioned by Jeremiah "Jehovah our Righteousness" (<a href="/jeremiah/33-16.htm">Jeremiah 33:16</a>). "New names" will be given to individual saints in the heavenly kingdom (<a href="/revelation/2-17.htm">Revelation 2:17</a>; <a href="/revelation/3-12.htm">Revelation 3:12</a>). <span class="p"><br /><br /></span><span class="versiontext"><a href="/commentaries/isaiah/62-2.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a></span><span class="p"><br /><br /><br /></span><a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div><span class="word">Nations</span><br /><span class="heb">גוֹיִם֙</span> <span class="translit">(ḡō·w·yim)</span><br /><span class="parse">Noun -
