Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, my servants shall eat, but ye shall be hungry: behold, my servants shall drink, but ye shall be thirsty: behold, my servants shall rejoice, but ye shall be ashamed:
Behold, my servants shall eat - enjoy all blessings from me (Song of Solomon 5:1).
But ye shall be hungry - (Amos 4:6; Amos 8:11.) This may refer to the siege of Jerusalem under Titus, when 1,100,000 are said to have perished by famine: thus Isaiah 65:15 will refer to God's people, without distinction of Jew and Gentile receiving 'another name'-namely, that of Christians (Houbigant). A further fulfillment may still remain, just before the creation of the 'new heavens and earth,' as the context, Isaiah 65:17, implies.
