Isaías 56
Procopius of Gaza
Isaías 56:8
The Savior, however, is gentle not only with the nations. For he says, "I will gather the scattered of Israel." For these were far from the community in the law, being far away from Judah, and [they] were idol worshiping and teaching doctrines and precepts of human invention. Those who were thus gathered included the godly of old and even the disciples of the Savior. — COMMENTARY ON ISAIAH 56:1-11
Isaías 56:9
"The beasts of the forest" means the nations. For a forest denotes the group of nations of different branches that he invites to the spiritual banquet. According to Aquila, he does not call them simply wild beasts, but "his wild beasts." Why "his"? Why "God's"? Because, captured by the devil, they became wild beasts under his tyranny and while alive they were hardly human. Yet God calls these as his own to his spiritual banquet, to eat the bread of life and to rejoice.… For although they were away from him for a long time, they were able through faith to come close to him and to share in the bread that strengthens the heart of humankind. — COMMENTARY ON ISAIAH 56:1-11
