Isaiah 19:22

Isa 19:22 And the LORD shall smite Egypt: he shall smite and heal [it]: and they shall return [even] to the LORD, and he shall be intreated of them, and shall heal them.

Ver. 22. And the Lord shall smite Egypt. ] That he may bring it into the bond of the covenant. Eze 20:37 Hebrews 12:9 Hos 6:1

He shall smite and heal it. ] Heb., Smiting and healing. Una eademque manus, &c. Una gerit bellum monstrat manus altera pacem; as it was said of Charles V. Facit opus alienum ut faciat proprium Isa 28:20

And shall heal them. ] Pardon their sins, heal their natures, and make up all breaches in their outward estates.
