The Pulpit Commentary on Isaiah 60:16

The Pulpit Commentary · Joseph S. Exell and contributors · Public domain

Thou shalt also suck the milk of the Gentiles (comp. Deuteronomy 33:19). As a child at the mother's breast, thou shall obtain kindly nourishment through the means of the Gentiles, who acknowledge thee for their superior, and place all their means at thy disposal (supra, Isaiah 60:5-11).

Among these, the most liberal, and the most prompt to render aid, will be their kings (see the comment on Isaiah 60:10). Thou shall know that I the Lord am thy Saviour. This clause is repeated from Isaiah 49:26.

It is a phrase containing in it a mysterious depth of promise.
