Isaiah 19:24 Summary
[Isaiah 19:24 is talking about a future time when Israel, Egypt, and Assyria will work together in peace and harmony, which will be a blessing to the whole world. This is a beautiful picture of what God wants for all nations, as seen in Isaiah 2:4 and Micah 4:3, where He promises to bring an end to war and strife. As Christians, we can pray for and work towards this kind of harmony in our own communities, just like Jesus taught us to love our neighbors as ourselves, as seen in Matthew 22:39. By doing so, we can be a part of bringing God's blessing to the earth, as promised in Isaiah 19:24.]

Gill's Exposition on Isaiah 19:24
In that day shall Israel be the third with Egypt and with Assyria,.... There shall be a triple alliance between them; Jew and Gentile shall be made one, the middle wall of partition being broken
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Isaiah 19:24
In that day shall Israel be the third with Egypt and with Assyria, even a blessing in the midst of the land: Israel be the third - the three shall be joined as one nation.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Isaiah 19:24
The third; the third party, to wit, in that sacred league, whereby all of them oblige themselves to God. With Egypt and with Assyria: these people are named because they were the most obstinate and malicious enemies to God’ s church, and therefore in a special manner accursed by God; but they are here put synecdochically for all the Gentiles. Even a blessing: this is peculiar to Israel, who is not only a third party, as the others are, but is the most eminent and blessed of the three, as being the fountain, or rather the conduit-pipe, by which the blessing is conveyed to the other two, because Christ was to be born of them, and the gospel church and ordinances were first established among them, and from them derived to the Gentiles. In the midst of the land; or, of the earth; which may be added, to imply that God’ s blessing should be conveyed from and by Israel, not only to the Egyptians and the Assyrians, but to all the nations of the earth, in the midst of which the land of Israel might well be said to lie. Or, of that land of which I am here speaking; or, the singular number being put for the plural, of those lands, Egypt and Assyria, between which Israel lay.
Trapp's Commentary on Isaiah 19:24
Isaiah 19:24 In that day shall Israel be the third with Egypt and with Assyria, [even] a blessing in the midst of the land:Ver. 24. In that day shall Israel be the third with Egypt.] The posterity of Shem, Ham, and Japheth, shall concur in the communion of saints; the pale and partition wall being taken away. Even a blessiing in the midst of the earth.] The saints are so. Absque stationibus non staret mundus. If it were not for them, the world would soon shatter and fall in pieces.
Cambridge Bible on Isaiah 19:24
24. shall Israel be the third]—member of the Messianic League. For land read earth as R.V.
Barnes' Notes on Isaiah 19:24
In that day shall Israel be the third - That is, the three shall be united as one people.
Whedon's Commentary on Isaiah 19:24
24, 25. In that day — Here, doubtless, the Messianic “day.” The language here is but the prefiguration of great moral changes.
