Isaiah 60:10 Commentary: Rashi & Ibn Ezra

וּבָנ֤וּ בְנֵֽי־נֵכָר֙ חֹמֹתַ֔יִךְ וּמַלְכֵיהֶ֖ם יְשָׁרְת֑וּנֶךְ כִּ֤י בְקִצְפִּי֙ הִכִּיתִ֔יךְ וּבִרְצוֹנִ֖י רִֽחַמְתִּֽיךְ׃

And aliens shall build up thy walls, And their kings shall minister unto thee; For in My wrath I smote thee, But in My favour have I had compassion on thee. .

Rashi on Isaiah

and in my grace Because I favored you; in old French, en mon apayemant.

Ibn Ezra on Isaiah

And the sons of strangers shall build, etc. The Israelites will not build the walls of Jerusalem, as they did not build even the temple; other nations will do it.
