2158. 'Do not, I beg of you, pass from over your servant' means His intense desire, for these words, as stated just above, are similar in meaning to those preceding them; that is to say, these words as well imply a respectful regard, and at the same time imply an affection that leads to a desire that what He had now begun to perceive should not pass away.
Isaiah 49:5-6
5
And now, saith the LORD that formed me from the womb to be his servant, to bring Jacob again to him, Though Israel be not gathered, yet shall I be glorious in the eyes of the LORD, and my God shall be my strength.
6
And he said, It is a light thing that thou shouldest be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel: I will also give thee for a light to the Gentiles, that thou mayest be my salvation unto the end of the earth.
