Here is a sweet reference to the covenant of redemption in and by Christ; and I would fain persuade myself that Christ had an eye to it in what is here said. God the Father promised to give his Son the heathen for his inheritance; Psalms 2:8; Isaiah 49:6; and may we not suppose, that as God created all things by Jesus Christ, those nations whom he hath made, whom he hath redeemed, and whom he hath new made by the regeneration of his Spirit, are here meant, who are to come and worship before him? Psalms 72:11.
