In the context of <a href="/isaiah/58.htm">Isaiah 58</a>, it follows a call to true fasting and justice, suggesting that spiritual fulfillment comes from aligning one's actions with God's will. Delighting in the Lord is a recurring theme in Scripture, seen in passages like <a href="/psalms/37-4.htm">Psalm 37:4</a>, which encourages believers to find their joy in God rather than worldly pursuits.

Riding on the heights suggests a position of advantage and blessing, reminiscent of <a href="/deuteronomy/32-13.htm">Deuteronomy 32:13</a>, where God promises Israel prosperity and protection. Historically, this can be seen as a metaphor for Israel's restoration and exaltation among the nations. It also reflects the covenant blessings promised to those who are faithful to God, indicating a life elevated above the struggles and oppressions of the world.and feed you with the heritage of your father Jacob.” The heritage of Jacob refers to the covenant promises given to the patriarchs, including land, descendants, and a special relationship with God. This promise of sustenance and inheritance is both physical and spiritual, pointing to the blessings of the Promised Land and the spiritual legacy of faith. It connects to <a href="/genesis/28-13.htm">Genesis 28:13-15</a>, where God reaffirms His covenant with Jacob. This phrase assures the faithful of their place in God's ongoing plan and the fulfillment of His promises.For the mouth of the LORD has spoken. This declaration underscores the certainty and authority of God's promises. When the Lord speaks, His words are unchangeable and trustworthy, as seen throughout Scripture (e.g., <a href="/isaiah/40-8.htm">Isaiah 40:8</a>). It serves as a reminder of God's sovereignty and the reliability of His word, encouraging believers to trust in His declarations and live in obedience to His commands.

A right use of the sabbath will help to form in men habits of devotion, which will make religion a joy and a delight to them. I will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth; i.e. "I will give thee a prominent position in the earth, and cause thee to occupy its high places, and hear rule over many nations." Something more than a "taking triumphal possession of Palestine" is evidently pointed at (see <a href="/deuteronomy/32-13.htm">Deuteronomy 32:13</a>). And feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father. The world itself was the "heritage of Jacob," since in him and his seed "all the families of the earth were to be blessed" (<a href="/genesis/28-14.htm">Genesis 28:14</a>). Israel, having laid aside its formalism, and turned to God sincerely. keeping fast and sabbath as God would have them kept, not in the letter, but in the spirit, would enter upon the promised heritage, and occupy the position originally assigned to it.
