in the east, in the regions of light — eastern lands or coastlands
Isaiah 24:15 calls for glorifying the Lord 'in the east' or 'in the regions of light' — a phrase whose exact meaning is debated. Some understand it as 'Urim' (lights, hence east), others emend to 'islands/coastlands.' The context is universal praise accompanying cosmic judgment. If 'east' is correct, it balances the following 'coastlands of the sea,' creating a merism (east and west) for worldwide worship. Light-imagery also suits Isaiah's vision of God's glory illuminating all nations.
Sentidos
1. sense 1 — A prepositional phrase denoting 'in the east' or 'in the regions/lands of light,' though some emend to 'islands.' English 'glorify' and Spanish 'en las luces' (in the lights) reflect the 'Urim/lights' reading, suggesting eastern lands where the sun rises. Isaiah 24:15 envisions global worship from all directions — east (lights) and west (coastlands) — as God's judgment and salvation encompass the earth. 1×
