Iz 61, 1-11

1 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, for the Lord has anointed me. He has sent me to bring good news to the meek, so as to heal the contrite of heart, to preach leniency to captives and release to the confined, 2 and so to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord and the day of vindication of our God: to console all who are mourning, 3 to take up the mourners of Zion and to give them a crown in place of ashes, an oil of joy in place of mourning, a cloak of praise in place of a spirit of grief. And there, they shall be called the strong ones of justice, the planting of the Lord, unto glorification. 4 And they will rebuild the deserted places of past ages, and they will raise up the ruins of antiquity, and they will repair the desolate cities, which had been dissipated for generation after generation. 5 And foreigners will stand up and will pasture your flocks. And the sons of sojourners will be your farmers and the workers of your vineyards. 6 But you yourselves will be called the priests of the Lord. It will be said to you, “You are the ministers of our God.” You will eat from the strength of the Gentiles, and you will pride yourself on their glory. 7 Instead of your double confusion and shame, they will praise their portion. Because of this, they will possess double in their land. Everlasting joy will be for them. 8 For I am the Lord, who loves judgment and who holds hatred for robbery within a burnt offering. And I will turn their work into truth, and I will forge a perpetual covenant with them. 9 And they will know their offspring among the nations, and their progeny in the midst of the peoples. All who see them will recognize them: that these are the offspring whom the Lord has blessed. 10 I will rejoice greatly in the Lord, and my soul will exult in my God. For he has clothed me with the vestments of salvation, and he has wrapped me in the clothing of justice, like a groom arrayed with a crown, and like a bride adorned with her jewels. 11 For as the earth brings forth its seedlings and the garden produces its seeds, so will the Lord God bring forth justice and praise in the sight of all the nations.

Verš 1

The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, for the Lord has anointed me. He has sent me to bring good news to the meek, so as to heal the contrite of heart, to preach leniency to captives and release to the confined,

Lk 4:17 - And the book of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. And as he unrolled the book, he found the place where it was written:

Verš 4

And they will rebuild the deserted places of past ages, and they will raise up the ruins of antiquity, and they will repair the desolate cities, which had been dissipated for generation after generation.

Iz 58:12 - And places that have been desolate for ages will be built up by you. You will raise a foundation for generation after generation. And you will be called the repairer of hedges, who turns the roadways into quiet places.

Verš 6

But you yourselves will be called the priests of the Lord. It will be said to you, “You are the ministers of our God.” You will eat from the strength of the Gentiles, and you will pride yourself on their glory.

1Pt 2:5 - be also yourselves like living stones, built upon him, a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, so as to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

1Pt 2:9 - But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, an acquired people, so that you may announce the virtues of him who has called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.

Zjv 1:6 - and who has made us into a kingdom and into priests for God and for his Father. To him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.

Zjv 5:10 - And you have made us into a kingdom and into priests for our God, and we shall reign over the earth.”

Iz 61,1-3 - Tieto verše hovorí Mesiáš. Pán Ježiš ich vykladal o sebe (Lk 4,16–19). Duch Pánov je na Emanuelovi (11,2) a na Pánovom služobníkovi (42,1). Všetky tieto mená označujú Mesiáša, ktorý prišiel tešiť duševne zarmútených a oslobodiť ľudí z otroctva diablovho. Rok, v ktorom Boh rozdeľuje svoje milosti, začal príchodom Spasiteľa. Pre veriacich je to čas radosti, pre tých, čo odmietajú Mesiáša, je to čas pomsty. Knabenbauer tu pekne vyzdvihuje Božie milosrdenstvo, ktoré spomína rok milosti a iba deň pomsty. Doba mesiášska sa tu prirovnáva k sobotnému a jubilejnému roku Starého zákona (Dt 15,1–6; Lv 25,10). Mesiáš odstráni smútok, že si viac ľudia nebudú už musieť sypať popol na hlavu (porov. 3,26; 47,11; 52,1–2), ale budú sa môcť ozdobovať ako na veľké slávnosti. Všetci budú upevnení v dobrom, budú to "Duby spravodlivosti" a "Štep Pána na ozdobu" (porov. 60,21).

Iz 61,5 - Pohanské národy sa pridružia k národu Božiemu a budú mu pomáhať pri budovaní Božieho kráľovstva.
