Isaiah 30:26
Douay-Rheims
And the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days: in the day when the Lord shall bind up the wound of his people, and shall heal the stroke of their wound.
Jamieson, Fausset & Brown
Image from the heavenly bodies to express the increase of spiritual light and felicity. "Sevenfold" implies the perfection of that felicity, seven being the sacred number. It shall also be literally fulfilled hereafter in the heavenly city (Isa 60:19-20; Rev 21:23-24; Rev 22:5). breach--the wound, or calamity, sent by God on account of their sins (Isa 1:5).
