Charles Spurgeon Commentary Isaiah 60:1

"Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of Jehovah is risen upon thee." — Isaiah 60:1 (ASV)

Arise, shine; for your light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon you.

The Church is like the moon, which shines with borrowed light.

When God shines upon the Church, then the Church herself shines by reflecting his light. The glory of Jehovah is her glory, if that is withdrawn, she is dark indeed; but when that shines into her and through her, then her brightness is great indeed.
