61:4-5 Let Me Dwell in Your Tent, for You Have Heard My Vows. To dwell in God's tent is to be a welcome guest in God's presence in worship (cf. 15:1; 23:6; 27:4). In this context the vows are promises of special peace offerings, which the worshiper will celebrate in due course (see note on 56:12-13). For shelter of your wings, see note on 17:8.
