Isaiah 60:9

Surely the isles shall wait for me The countries remote from Judea, and especially the islands and continents of Europe, generally intended by the term isles. And the ships To convey them to me; of Tarshish first Those that traffic by sea. In naming this, he implied all places that had commerce with other nations. Concerning Tarshish, see note on Isaiah 2:16. To bring thy sons from far From the most distant countries; their silver and their gold with them With all their treasure; unto the name of the Lord To be presented to the Lord, and employed for the advancement of his glory, and the benefit of his church and people. Because he hath glorified thee He will make thee honourable in the eyes of the world, and that especially by setting up the ministry of the gospel in the midst of thee.
