The glory: That is, the cedar; and as the choice timber of Lebanon beautified Solomon's temple, that footstool of Jehovah; so shall the peculiar advantages of every nation, and of every description of men, concur to beautify the church of Christ, which He has determined to make glorious. The language then becomes more energetic, and the images employed more grand and magnificent; and nothing can answer to the glorious description but some future exalted state of the church on earth, or the church triumphant in heaven; though several expressions seem to limit it to the church below. Isa 35:2, Isa 41:19, Isa 41:20, Isa 55:13; Hos 14:6, Hos 14:7 to beautify: Ezr 7:27 the place: Isa 66:1; Ch1 28:2; Psa 96:6, Psa 132:7 Isaiah 60:14
