Lift up your eyes round about, and behold: all these gather themselves together, and come to you. As I live,
says the LORD,
you shall surely clothe yourself with them all, as with an ornament, and bind them on you, as a bride does.
All Commentaries on Isaiah 49:18 Go To Isaiah 49
Ambrose of Milan
AD 397
In the passion of his body [Christ] washed the nations with his blood. Truly the mantle represents the nations, as it is written, “As I live, says the Lord, unless I shall clothe myself with them all, as with a garment,” and in another passage, “Like clothing you will change them, and they will be changed.” And so with his own blood he cleansed not his own sins, for there were none, but the offenses that we committed.
