Isaiah 56:8 Douay-Rheims

The Lord God, who gathereth the scattered of Israel, saith: I will still gather unto him his congregation.

Ibn Ezra

1089–1167 Jewish

The outcasts of Israel, that came from Babylon, Elam, and Assyria. Beside those that are gathered unto him, that is, besides the proselytes. The meaning of the whole phrase is, Yet will I gather others to him, besides those that have already joined Israel. The suffix in לנקבציו, that are gathered unto him, refers to Israel.

Hebrew and Aramaic words are the commentator’s citations of the sacred text; the English translation that follows each is the translator’s.
