Isaiah 32:8

But the liberal -This seems also to have the force of a proverbial expression. The word ‘liberal’ means generous, noble, large-hearted, benevolent; a man of large views and of public spirit; a man above covetousness, avarice, and self-seeking; a man who is willing to devote himself to the welfare of his country, and to the interests of his fellow-men. It is implied here that such persons would be selected to administer the affairs of the government I under the wise and virtuous prince of whom the prophet speaks. Deviseth liberal things -He purposes those things which will tend to promote the public welfare, and not those merely which will conduce to his private ends and gratification.
