Isaías 12

Isaías 12

Garland comments that the Lamb… leads them to the still waters which restore the soul (Ps 23:1-2). This is the living water which the same Shepherd promised the Samaritan woman (John 4:10-11) and which believers in the church age experience through the indwelling Holy Spirit (John 7:38, 39). This water is available freely to all who thirst (Rev 21:6). It is the river of life which will ultimately be found flowing from the throne of God and the Lamb, watering the tree of life (Rev. 22:1-2). In the Millennial Kingdom, a fountain of living water will flow from Jerusalem and revive all that it touches (Eze 47:12; Zec 14:8). (A Testimony of Jesus Christ) Graham Scroggie comments on the paradox of Christ as the Source of the water of life: He Who is the Living Water thirsted in dying (John 19:28). He who began His ministry by hungering (Mt. 4:3), ended it by thirsting (John 19:28). He who was the Rock whence Israel in the desert was refreshed (1Co 10:4), and He who turned the water into wine (Jn 2:1-25), now thirsts (John 19:28). (A Guide to the Gospels. Grand Rapids, MI: Kregel Publications, 1995, 1948), 587) Ironside sums up this verse writing that… From the wells of salvation, so long spurned by the self-righteous Jew, seeking to save himself by his own efforts, the returned remnant draw the water of life as they call upon His name and bear witness before all the world to the salvation He has wrought. (Isaiah 11 & 12 - When God's Anointed Takes Over) Isaiah 12:4 And in that day you will say, "Give thanks to the LORD, call on His name.
