Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Isaiah 56:5

_ _ in mine house — the temple, the emblem of the Church (1 Timothy 3:15). They shall no longer be confined as proselytes were, to the outer court, but shall be admitted “into the holiest” (Hebrews 10:19, Hebrews 10:20).

_ _ a place — literally, “a hand.”

_ _ than of sons — Though the eunuch is barren of children (Isaiah 56:3), I will give him a more lasting name than that of being father of sons and daughters (regarded as a high honor among the Hebrews) (John 1:12; John 10:3; 1 John 3:1; Revelation 2:17; Revelation 3:12).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Isaiah 56:3-8.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Isaiah 56:5

In mine house — In my temple. Better — A far greater blessing and honour than that of having posterity, even my favour, and my spirit, and eternal felicity.

Even to them will I give in my (e) house and within my walls a place and a (f) name better than of sons and of daughters: I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off.

(e) Meaning, in his Church.

(f) They will be called after my people, and be of the same religion: yea, under Christ the dignity of the faithful will be greater than the Jews were at that time.
