But  the  present  prophet  has  a  much  securer  hold  of  the
truth,  or  at  least  expresses  it  much  more  formally:  "  The
Servant  of  the  Lord  shall  bring  forth  right  to  the  nations ;
they  shall  wait  on  his  instruction  "  (xlii.  1—4) ;  "  He  shall
be  the  light  of  the  Gentiles "  (xlii.  9,  xlix.  9) ;  "  The
nations  shall  come  to  Israel's  light,  and  kings  to  the
brightness  of  her  rising"  (Ix.  1);  "Jehovah's  arms  shall
rule  the  nations  "  (li.  5).
