1). John F. Walvoord, Every Prophecy of the Bible: Isaiah 62:1-12. Another beautiful picture of the future kingdom was revealed as following the second coming of Christ. At that time her salvation will be evident to all (Isaiah 62:1). The nations about israel will observe her righteousness and glory (Isaiah 62:2). Israel was compared to a crown or a royal diadem (Isaiah 62:3). Though she once was as desolate, now she will be called “Hephzibah,” meaning “My delight is in her,” and her land “Beulah,” meaning “married one,” for “the LORD will take delight in you, and your land will be married” (Isaiah 62:4). Her restoration was described as a joyful marriage. Israel will never have to surrender to foreigners her new wine or her crops (Isaiah 62:6-9). Israel was challenged to prepare the road for the King (Isaiah 62:10, 11). The people of Israel themselves will be described as “the Holy People (Isaiah 62:12).
