Isaiah Revelation
Isaiah 65:17-66:24 covers the New Jerusalem vision in
the book of Revelation.
17.1For I create
17.2new skies and a new land;
17.3and the former things will not be remembered
17.4nor come into mind.
18.1But my people will be glad and rejoice forever
18.2because I am creating;
18.3for I create Jerusalem a rejoicing,
18.4and I will rejoice in it.
19.1I will rejoice in Jerusalem,
19.2and joy in my people;
19.3and the voice of weeping will not be heard in her any longer,
19.4nor the voice of wailing any longer.
Isaiah 65:17-1920.1In her there will not be
20.2a child who dies in infancy any longer,
20.3nor an old man who has not filled his days;
20.4for the child
20.5will die 100 years old;
20.6but a sinner being 100 years old
20.7will be accursed.
21.1They will build houses and inhabit them;
21.2and they will plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
22.1They will not build and others inhabit;
22.2they will not plant and others eat;
22.3for like the days of trees
22.4are the days of my people,
22.5and my chosen ones will eat
22.6the work of their hands.
23.1They will not labor in vain
23.2nor bring forth sons for a curse;
23.3for they are the seed of the blessed of the Master,
23.4both they and their offspring with them.
24.1It will come to pass that before they call I will answer them;
24.2and before they speak I will hear them.
25.1The wolf and the lamb will feed together
25.2and the lion will eat straw like the ox,
25.3and dust will be the serpents' food.
25.4They will not hurt nor destroy
25.5in all my holy mountain,
25.6says the Master. Isaiah 65:20-25
1.1Thus says the Master:
1.2The skies are my throne
1.3and the land my footstool.
1.4What is the house that you build for me
1.5and what is the place of my rest?
2.1For all those things my own hand has made, Q Acts 7:49-50
2.2and all those things belong to me, says the Master.
Isaiah 66:1-22.3To who will I look and where will I live,
2.4but to him who is 1 calm 2 and humble
2.53 and quakes at my word. A Jeremiah 7:5
1|4 3.1He who slaughters an ox
3.2is like he who kills a man;
3.32|4 he who sacrifices a lamb
3.4is like he who kills a dog;
3.53|4 he who offers a meal offering
3.6is like he who offers swine's blood;
3.74|4 he who burns incense
3.8is like he who blesses an idol.
3.9Yes, they have chosen their own ways,
3.10and their soul delights in their idols.
4.1I will also allow them to be humiliated
4.2and will repay them according to their works;
4.3because when I called, no one answered;
4.4when I spoke, they did not listen;
4.5but they did evil in my sight,
4.6and chose the things in which I did not delight. S Isaiah 65:12
Isaiah 66:2.3-45.1Hear the word of the Master,
5.2those who quake at his word,
5.3Say to your brothers who hate you
5.4and who despise you because of my name,
5.5Let the Master be glorified,
5.6and rejoice in your joy,
5.7and they will be ashamed.
6.1A voice of tumult comes from the city,
6.2a voice from the house,
6.3the voice of the Master
6.4who renders repayment to his enemies.
Isaiah 66:5-67.1Before she travailed,
7.2she gave birth;
7.3before her pain came,
7.4she delivered a male child.
8.1Who has heard such a thing?
8.2Who has seen such things?
8.3Will the land be made to bring forth in 1 day,
8.4or will a people be born in an hour?
8.5For as soon as Zion travailed,
8.6she brought forth her children.
9.1Will I bring to birth
9.2and not cause to bring forth, says the Master?
9.3Perhaps it is not I who causes to bring forth
9.4and who shuts the womb, says the Master your God.
10.1Rejoice with Jerusalem and be glad with her,
10.2all you who love her;
10.3rejoice in joy with her,
10.4all you who mourn over her,
11.1that you may suck and be satisfied
11.2with the comfort of her breasts;
11.3that you may milk out and be delighted
11.4with the abundance of her glory.
Isaiah 66:7-1112.1For, thus says the Master:
12.2I will extend peace to her like a river,
12.3like an overflowing torrent;
12.4and you will suck the glory of the peoples;
12.5and you will be carried on the litters
12.6and be dandled on the knees;
13.1as one whom his mother comforts,
13.2so I will comfort you;
13.3and you will be comforted in Jerusalem.
Isaiah 66:12-1314.1You will see this and your heart will rejoice
14.2and your bones will flourish like tender grass;
14.3and the hand of the Master will be stretched out toward his servants,
14.4and he will destroy his enemies.
15.1For the Master will come with fire S 1 Kings 18:38 S 2 Kings 1:10
15.2and with his chariot like a whirlwind, S 2 Kings 2:11
15.3to pour out his anger with fury
15.4and his rebuke with flames of fire.
16.1For by fire the Master will judge,
16.2and by it he will test all flesh;
16.3and the killed of the Master will be many.
Isaiah 66:14-1617Those who holy themselves and purify themselves in the gardens following one after another in the middle, eating swine's flesh and creeping things and mice, will be consumed together, says the Master.
Isaiah 66:1718For I know their works and their thoughts, when I come to gather all peoples and tongues, and they will come and see my glory.
19I will set a sign among them, and I will send the saved from them to the peoples, 1|6 to Tarshish, 2|6 and to Pul, 3|6 and to Lud, who draw the bow, 4|6 and to Tubal, 5|6 and to Javan, 6|6 and to the distant islands that have not heard my fame, nor have seen my glory, and they will show my glory among the peoples.
20On horses and in chariots and in litters they will bring all your brothers for an offering to the Master out of all peoples to my holy mountain Jerusalem, says the Master, as the children of Israel bring a meal offering in a clean vessel into the house of the Master.
21I will also take some of them for priests and for Levites, says the Master.
Isaiah 66:18-2122For as the new skies and the new land which I will make will remain before me, says the Master, so your seed and your name will remain.
23It will come to pass that from one new month to another and from one sabbath to another all flesh will come to bow before me, says the Master.
24They will go forth and look on the dead bodies of the men that have transgressed against me; for their coals will not die, nor will their fire be quenched; Q Mark 9:44 Q Mark 9:46 Q Mark 9:48 and they will be an abhorrence to all flesh. Isaiah 66:22-24 (Isaiah 65:17-66:24 BRB)
Isaiah says I create new skies and a new land.
This aligns with the reference to "new skies and land" in
Revelation
(Rev 21:1).
Isaiah says Yahvah creates Jerusalem a rejoicing.
This aligns with the New Jerusalem
(Rev 21:2).
Isaiah says the voice of weeping will not be heard in
her any longer, nor the voice of wailing any longer.
This
aligns with Yahvah wiping away tears
(Rev 21:4).
Isaiah says In her there will not be a child who dies
in infancy any longer, nor an old man who has not filled his
days; for the child will die 100 years old; but a sinner being
100 years old will be accursed.
This aligns with the end
of death reference
(Rev 21:4).
Isaiah says They will not build and others inhabit; they
will not plant and others eat; for like the days of trees are
the days of my people, and my chosen ones will eat the work of
their hands.
This aligns with the reference to inheritance
(Rev 21:6-8).
Isaiah says The skies are my throne and the land my
footstool; what is the house that you build for me, and what
is the place of my rest?
This likely aligns with the idea
that the New Jerusalem does not have a temple
(Rev 21:9-27).
Isaiah says to who will I look, and where will I live,
but to him who is calm and humble, and trembles at my word.
This aligns with those whose names are written in the lamb's
book and are allowed to enter
(Rev 21:27).
Isaiah says it will come to pass that from one new month
to another and from one sabbath to another all flesh will come
to worship before me says Yahvah.
This aligns with the Tree
of Life bearing fruit each month
(Rev 22:1-5).
