Isaiah
66:1 Thus says God, The heaven is my throne and the Earth
is my footstool. Where
is the house that you build unto me? And where
is the place of my rest?.(Zephaniah
3:17)
The
place of God's rest is in your heart aligned
with God.
Isaiah 66:2 For all those things
my hand has made including all those things which have been, says God,
but to this individual will I look, whoever is poor and of a contrite spirit
and trembles at my word.
Isaiah
66:2 For all those things my hand has made including
all those things which have been.(have
been made by me and they carry on), says God,
but to this individual will I look.(what
does this mean? 'to this individual will I look' if not being
available in us); whoever is poor.('poor',
that is, not filled with ego
and full
of himself, but one having humility.{Matthew
11:29; Isaiah 58:5,6}, one
seeing a spiritual need in his or her life; not vanity
filled, not one enriching his ego with selfishness, greed and approaches
to gain favor, but one who serves others out of the love he or she feels
because he or she overstands
that we of humanity.are
of God. How are we all of God?.Malachi
2:10;
1Corinthians 12:4,12;
Galatians
3:28; without God one will never
get
it all together:.Deuteronomy
4:40; 8:18; Psalms
75:6,7).and
of a contrite
spirit and at my word trembles.(trembles
= extreme
regard.for,
regarding it not as something trivial;
takes it seriously; considers the importance of; high attention to, as
opposed to an 'I don't give a care about' type of attitude; tremble here
is not a fearful aversion
to, but rather a great respect
toward).at my
word.
Psalms
51:17 "The sacrifices God looks for are a broken spirit, a broken and
a contrite heart, O God, you will not despise."
Psalms
145:14 "God upholdes all that fall and raises up all those that be
bowed down.".Ancient
Job's
example. More.
A contrite
attitude is one that is the opposite of bravado,
arrogance
and a selfish, bullying,
self-seeking
approach to life, but rather, has an outlook of doing what's in the highest
and best interests of both himself and others, as shown by a willingness
to help and be of service to and a wanting for others to raise up in life
as high as possible, no matter what they may have done; example.
Genesis
18:14 "Is any thing too hard for God?..."
Matthew
5:3; 8:5-10; 2Corinthians
12:9.
Isaiah
66:3 He that kills an ox is as if he slew a man; he that sacrifices
a lamb, as if he cut off a dog's neck; he that offers an oblation, as if
he offered swine's blood; he that burns incense as if he blessed an idol.
Yea, they have chosen their own ways.(not
God's ways and who
would the they be?).and
their soul delights in their abominations.
Jeremiah
2:31,32.
Isaiah
66:4 I also will choose their delusions.(original
for word 'delusions' is 'caprice';
although we bring things upon us by how we act, it's the true and only
God of creation that selects the
degree of retribution).and
will bring their fears upon them.(Eclectic
Notes:."as
they have chosen their own ways, etc., so I will choose their delusions.",
that is, they are blinded, don't
know where they are going and don't know what life is all about, because
they have left God out of their lives:.Leviticus
26:36,37; Jeremiah 6:15-17);
because when I called none did answer, when I spake, they did not hear,
but they did evil before mine eyes and chose that in which I delighted
not.
Isaiah
66:5-14 Hear the word of God you that tremble.(regard
it not as something trivial).at
his word.(those
that respect the true God); Your brethren that hated you
and cast you out for my name's sake.(get
away from me, we want nothing to do with your God), said,
Let God.be glorified.
But he.(the
true God).shall appear to your
joy and they shall be ashamed. A voice of noise from the city, a voice
from the temple, a voice of the Lord that renders recompence to his enemies.
Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came she was delivered
of a man child. Who hath heard such a thing? Who has seen such things?
Shall the Earth be made to bring forth in one day? Or shall a nation be
born at once? fFor as soon as Zion travailed she brought forth her children.
Shall I bring to the birth and not cause to bring forth, says the Lord?
Shall I cause to bring forth and shut the womb, says your God? Rejoice
you with Jerusalem and be glad with her all you that love her. Rejoice
for joy with her, all you that mourn for her; that you may suck and be
satisfied with the breasts of her consolations, that you may milk out and
be delighted with the abundance of her glory. For thus says the Lord, Behold,
I will extend peace to her like a river and the glory of the Gentiles like
a flowing stream, then shall you suck, you shall be borne upon her sides
and be dandled
upon her knees. As one whom his mother comforteth, so will I comfort you,
and you shall be comforted in Jerusalem. And when ye see this, your heart
shall rejoice and your bones shall flourish like an herb. And the hand
of the Lord shall be known toward his servants and his indignation toward
his enemies.
Isaiah
66:15,16 For, behold, God will come with fire and with his chariots
like a whirlwind, to render his anger with fury and his rebuke with flames
of fire. For by fire and by his sword will God plead with all flesh and
the slain of the God shall be many.
(
Isaiah
66:17 They that sanctify themselves and purify themselves in the gardens
behind one tree in the midst, eating swine's flesh and the abomination
and the mouse, shall be consumed together, says the Lord.
Isaiah
66:18 For I know their works and their thoughts. It shall come that
I will gather all nations and tongues and they shall come and see my glory.
Isaiah
66:19-21 And I will set a sign among them and I will send those that
escape of them unto the nations to Tarshish, Pul and Lud; that draw the
bow, to Tubal, Javan and to the isles afar
off, that have not heard my fame neither have seen my glory. And they shall
declare my glory among the Gentiles. And they shall bring all your brethren
for an offering unto the Lord
out of all nations upon horses and in chariots and in litters and upon
mules and upon swift beasts, to my holy mountain Jerusalem says the Lord,
as the children of Israel bring an offering in a clean vessel into the
house of the Lord. And I will also take of them for priests and for Levites,
says the Lord.
Isaiah
66:22 For as the new heavens and the new Earth.(2Peter
3:13), which I am doing, shall remain before me.(the
pressure
cooker of life on Earth is over), says the Lord, so shall
your seed and your name remain.
Names
are written in the Book
of Life.
Isaiah
66:23 And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another
and from one sabbath to another, all flesh comes to worship before me,
says the Lord..(?)
Isaiah
66:24 And they shall go forth and look upon the carcases of the men
that have transgressed against me, for their worm shall not die neither
shall their fire be quenched and they shall be an abhorring unto all flesh.
