The author seeks to read the message of Is 26:19 through its context. First it is the literary context determined by the proposition of the oracles in Is 24-27. In their light one should seeks the identities of those who will be enlivened by „a dew of light”. Then it is the histori¬cal context that should be found in the experiences of the exiles who return from the Babylo¬nian captivity, and who tend tó reconstruct their national community. This context sheds light on the eschatological problems of this prophecy. Through the image of carnal resurrection it shows the just who come back to life.

The song of praise in Isa 12 is a confession of faith in Yahweh. Trust arises from the recognition of the activity of God in the history of Israel. In the historical events Israel can still re-experience the might of God, especially in the exodus, through which God makes his name known to the world. The name of Yahweh is inextricably connected with Israel, which is confirmedby the title the 'Holy One of Israel'. The title underlines the vital self-offering of God, who is dwelling among His people in Zion. In this context, the 'springs of salvation' are the metaphor of the salvific action of God, who through his words calls the people to abandon fear and to lean exclusively on the strength of his person. The trust in the word of Yahweh permits Israel to 'draw from the springs of salvation'.
