Isaiah 60
1.The glory of the church in the abundant access of the Gentiles.
15.And the great blessings after a short affliction














Lift up your eyes and look around:
This phrase is a call to attention and expectation. In the context of Isaiah, it is an invitation to witness the fulfillment of God's promises. The imagery of lifting one's eyes suggests a shift from despair to hope, encouraging the people to see beyond their current circumstances. Biblically, this echoes other calls to look and see God's work, such as inGenesis 13:14-15, where God tells Abraham to look around at the land promised to him.

They all gather and come to you:
This indicates a future ingathering of people, symbolizing the return of the exiles to Jerusalem. Historically, this reflects the return from Babylonian captivity, but prophetically, it points to a greater eschatological gathering of nations to the light of God's presence. This gathering is also seen in the New Testament, where people from all nations are drawn to Christ (John 12:32).

Your sons will come from afar:
The return of sons from distant lands signifies the restoration of family and community. It highlights the reversal of previous dispersions and captivities. This can be seen as a type of the prodigal son returning home (Luke 15:11-32), symbolizing repentance and restoration. It also foreshadows the gathering of God's people from all corners of the earth in the end times (Matthew 24:31).

And your daughters will be carried on the arm:
This phrase suggests care, protection, and tenderness. Daughters being carried implies a nurturing return, emphasizing the safety and security found in God's restoration. Culturally, it reflects the ancient Near Eastern practice of carrying children, symbolizing familial love and support. This imagery can be connected to God's promise of comfort and care for His people, as seen inIsaiah 66:12-13, where God comforts Jerusalem as a mother comforts her child.

What Does Isaiah 60:4 Mean
Lift up your eyes

• Isaiah begins with a command of hope, urging Zion to shift her gaze from present desolation to God’s promised restoration.

• Similar calls appear inIsaiah 49:18—“Lift up your eyes and look around. They all gather and come to you”—and inGenesis 13:14 – 15, where Abram is told to “lift up your eyes” to view the land God will surely give.

• Faith always starts by looking up, not inward;Psalm 121:1 – 2 echoes this pattern—“I lift up my eyes to the hills… My help comes from the LORD.”

and look around

• The command moves from heavenward focus to careful observation of what God is doing on earth.

• InJohn 4:35 Jesus urges, “Lift up your eyes and see the fields,” teaching the same active readiness to recognize God’s work.

• By telling Zion to “look around,” God assures her that the coming miracle will be visible, historical, tangible—
not poetic exaggeration but literal fulfillment.

They all gather and come to you

• The plural “all” reaches beyond Israel’s scattered tribes to the nations drawn to Messiah’s light (Isaiah 60:3;Isaiah 2:2).

•Zechariah 8:20 – 23 pictures peoples from every language grasping the robe of a Jew, saying, “Let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.”

•Revelation 21:24 shows the consummation: “The nations will walk by its light, and the kings of the earth will bring their glory into it.”

• God is depicting a literal ingathering that culminates in the millennial kingdom and ultimately the new Jerusalem.

your sons will come from afar

• The promise zeroes in on Israel’s physical descendants who were scattered “to the east…west…north and south” (Isaiah 43:5 – 6).

•Jeremiah 31:8 – 9 affirms, “See, I will bring them from the land of the north… a great company will return.”

• Modern history previews this regathering, but the complete fulfillment awaits Messiah’s return when “all Israel will be saved” (Romans 11:26).

• On a wider level, every believer redeemed from sin—whether Jew or Gentile—becomes a “son from afar” now brought near by Christ’s blood (Ephesians 2:13).

and your daughters will be carried on the arm

•Isaiah 49:22 paints the same tender scene: “They will bring your sons in their arms and carry your daughters on their shoulders.”

• The image assures helpless exiles—young, old, weak—that their return rests on God’s strength, not their own.

• Like the shepherd who gathers lambs “in His arms” (Isaiah 40:11), the Lord pledges personal, fatherly care for every returning daughter of Zion.

• This tenderness foreshadows the Savior who welcomed children (Mark 10:16) and still carries His people “from the womb… to gray hairs” (Isaiah 46:3 – 4).

summary

Isaiah 60:4 is a five-fold invitation to hope: look up, look around, watch the gathering, expect distant sons, and trust God to carry helpless daughters. The verse promises a literal regathering of Israel and anticipates a global pilgrimage to Jerusalem under Messiah’s reign, while also encouraging every believer today to lift their eyes and rest in the certainty of God’s faithful, fatherly embrace.

(4)Lift up thine eyes . . .--Repeated fromIsaiah 49:18.

Thy daughters shall be nursed at thy side . . .--AsinIsaiah 66:12, the words point to the Eastern custom of carrying young children on the hip of their mother, with their arms clasped round her waist.

Verse 4. -Lift up thine eyes (seeIsaiah 49:18).Thy sons... thy daughters. Not so much Jews of the dispersion, as Gentiles, who will become thy adopted "sons" and "daughters."Shall be nursed at thyside; rather,shall be carried on thy side. Oriental mothers often carry a small child on their hip, with the arm round it to prevent its falling off.
