Isaiah 66 (CJB) 66:1  “Heaven is my throne,” says Adonai, “and the earth is my footstool. What kind of house could you build for me? What sort of place could you devise for my rest? 2  Didn’t I myself make all these things? This is how they all came to be,” says Adonai. Comment: Here it appears that God is mocking man for wanting to build Him a house. God denied King David’s request to build a house for God and the ark but then allows Solomon, King David’s son to build a house for Him. I also appears that Solomon was the cause of the 10 tribes to leave Judah and Benjamin. Continue Isaiah 66: “The kind of person on whom I look with favor is one with a poor and humble spirit, who trembles at my word. 3  Those others might as well kill a person as an ox, as well break a dog’s neck as sacrifice a lamb, as well offer pig’s blood as offer a grain offering, as well bless an idol as burn incense. Just as these have chosen their ways and enjoy their disgusting practices, 4  so I will enjoy making fools of them, and bring on them the very things they fear. For when I called, no one answered; when I spoke, they did not hear. Instead they did what was evil in my sight and chose what did not please me.” 5  Hear the word of Adonai, you who tremble at his word: “Your brothers, who hate you and reject you because of my name, have said: ‘Let Adonai be glorified, so we can see your joy.’ But they will be put to shame.” 6  That uproar in the city, that sound from the temple, is the sound of Adonai repaying his foes what they deserve. 7  Before going into labor, she gave birth; before her pains came, she delivered a male child. 8  Who ever heard of such a thing? Who has ever seen such things? Is a country born in one day? Is a nation brought forth all at once? For as soon as Tziyon went into labor, she brought forth her children. Comment: A professor at Hebrew University, Eleazar Sukenik, was seeking to purchase scrolls from the dead sea discovery. The day before the final vote to give God’s people the land that they had been promised, Sukenik brought several scrolls from an antique dealer in Bethlehem.  Sukenik did this at great personal safety and expense.  One of the scrolls was the Isaiah scroll which matched word for word the Isaiah scroll that was being used in 1947 and within 24 hours after the Isaiah scroll reached it’s home in Jerusalem, the vote was passed.  So what is so great about this in relationship to Israel becoming a country?  The Isaiah scroll contains two questions in Isaiah 66: 8, first is a country born in one day?  Second is a nation brought forth all at once?  Within a day of the scroll reaching Jerusalem the country of Israel was born and the moment the British left the land given to God’s people, a nation came to be.  You can read the entire story of how this happened in ”The Dead Sea Scrolls” the overview by Hershel Shanks. Continue: 9  “Would I let the baby break through and not be born?” asks Adonai. “Would I, who cause the birth, shut the womb?” asks your God. Comment: God would not prevent the process of His creation to be stopped; however, man would. I recently saw report saying there were 42 million plus abortions in the world in 2020. Is not God saying we do not murder the unborn? 10  Rejoice with Yerushalayim (Jerusalem)! Be glad with her, all you who love her! Rejoice, rejoice with her, all of you who mourned for her; 11  so that you nurse and are satisfied by her comforting breast, drinking deeply and delighting in the overflow of her glory. 12  For Adonai says, “I will spread shalom over her like a river, and the wealth of nations like a flooding stream; you will nurse and be carried in her arm and cuddled in her lap. 13  Like someone comforted by his mother, I will comfort you; in Yerushalayim you will be comforted.” 14  Your heart will rejoice at the sight, your bodies will flourish like newly sprouted grass. It will be known that the hand of Adonai is with his servants; but with his enemies, his fury. 15  For — look! — Adonai will come in fire, and his chariots will be like the whirlwind, to render his anger furiously, his rebuke with blazing fire. 16  For Adonai will judge all humanity with fire and with the sword, and those slain by Adonai will be many. 17  “Those who consecrate and purify themselves in order to enter the gardens, then follow the one who was already there, eating pig meat, reptiles and mice, will all be destroyed together,” says Adonai. 18  “For I [know] their deeds and their thoughts. “[The time] is coming when I will gather together all nations and languages. They will come and see my glory, 19 and I will give them a sign. I will send some of their survivors to the nations of Tarshish, Pul, Lud (these are archers), Tuval, Greece and more distant coasts, where they have neither heard of my fame nor seen my glory. They will proclaim my glory in these nations; 20 and they will bring all your kinsmen out of all the nations as an offering to Adonai — on horses, in chariots, in wagons, on mules, on camels — to my holy mountain Yerushalayim,” says Adonai, “just as the people of Isra’el themselves bring their offerings in clean vessels to the house of Adonai. 21 I will also take cohanim and L’vi’im from them,” says Adonai. 22 “For just as the new heavens and the new earth that I am making will continue in my presence,” says Adonai, “so will your descendants and your name continue. 23  “Every month on Rosh-Hodesh (new moon) and every week on Shabbat, (seventh day of week) everyone living will come to worship in my presence,” says Adonai. 24  “As they leave, they will look on the corpses of the people who rebelled against me. For their worm will never die, and their fire will never be quenched; but they will be abhorrent to all humanity.” [“Every month on Rosh-Hodesh and every week on Shabbat, everyone living will come to worship in my presence,” says Adonai.] Comment: I understand most of the above but there are a few things that I still struggle with. A example would be when Jerusalem had been reunited with Israel in 1967. The Messiah tells us in Matthew 24 “34 Yes! I tell you that this people (Those who follow Torah both Jew and Gentile) will certainly not pass away before all these things happen. 35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away. I need to ask, could we be in the generation that the Messiah speaks of in Matthew 24 since Jerusalem and Israel were united in June 1967? Leviticus 19:34 (CJB) Rather, treat the foreigner staying with you like the native-born among you — you are to love him as yourself, for you were foreigners in the land of Egypt; I am Adonai your God. Deuteronomy 10:17-18 (CJB) For Adonai your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great, mighty and awesome God, who has no favorites and accepts no bribes. 18 He secures justice for the orphan and the widow; he loves the foreigner, giving him food and clothing. Comment: God wants all His human creation to follow His Torah and Avraham, a goy (gentile), is the father of the Hebrews. The Messiah tells us this twice, first in the Gospel of Matthew (5:17-18) and then again in the Gospel of Luke (16:17). There is a difference between being chosen and being a favorite. Normally a person is chosen for a task and God has no favorites for He created all mankind in this world. Mankind decides if he wants to follow God (good) or the Adversary (evil). Also know that the Sh'mittah year started October 3, 2020.
