The Next Prophesied Event
Isaiah 61:1-2a The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because the Lord has anointed me. He has sent me to announce good news to the humble, to bind up the broken hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and to proclaim a year of the Lords favour,
Isaiah 61:2b-3...and a Day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, to give then garlands instead of ashes, oil of gladness, instead of mourners tears and a garment of splendour for the distressed. They will be called trees of righteousness, planted by the Lord for His adornment.
Isaiah 61:4-7 Buildings long in ruin and desolate will be restored and rebuilt. Foreigners will serve you, caring for your flocks and vines, but you will be called priests of the Lord and the wealth of the nations will be yours. Because My people have received insults and shame in double measure, they will receive in their own Land, wealth in double measure.
Isaiah 61:8-9 For I, the Lord love justice and hate injustice, I shall give My people a sure reward and make an everlasting Covenant with them. Their posterity will be renowned among the nations, they will be seen as a people blessed by the Lord.
Isaiah 61:10-11 Let us rejoice in the Lord with all our hearts. From Him has come victory and deliverance. His people, robed in beauty are like a garden full of flowers. The Lord will make His victory and renown known to the nations.
Reference: REB, NIV, KJV. Some verses abridged.
My comments: Isaiah 61:1-2a, was quoted by Jesus at the commencement of His ministry;.... a year of the Lord’s favour’. This denotes a Jubilee year and we can expect His Return to also be a Jubilee year. 2030 is the 40th Jubilee year after 30AD.
He stopped in mid sentence and then said: Today, in your hearing, this prophecy has come true. Therefore, the rest of this chapter is unfulfilled prophecy. So, we can expect the sequence of events to unfold as written, commencing with;
‘a Day of vengeance of our God’ - The next prophesied event. Not the Return of Jesus in His glory, but His punishment to the nations, triggered by an attack on Israel. This is prophesied and described comprehensively throughout the Bible as a terrible fire judgement that will affect the whole world. Isa. 63:1-6, Isa. 30:26
‘comfort all who mourn’- All who love the Lord and follow in His Laws, those who mourn His death on the cross. Zechariah 12:9-10
‘trees of righteousness, planted in their own Land’ - His people, gathered and settled in His holy Land, all of that area promised to the Patriarchs, the new country of Beulah. Ezekiel 20:34-36, Isaiah 26:15, Isaiah 62:1-5
‘buildings rebuilt and the land restored’ - After the devastation caused by a CME sunstrike, The Lord will regenerate the Land, Ezekiel 36:8 but buildings must be rebuilt, including the new Temple. Isaiah 65:21, Zechariah 6:15
‘foreigners will serve you’ - Isaiah 60:10...foreigners will rebuild your walls...
‘wealth of the nations will be yours’ - Zechariah 14:14 The same as what happened at the first Exodus. Exodus 11:2
‘make a Covenant with them’ - Ezekiel 34:25, Isaiah 54:10
‘from Him has come victory and deliverance’ - Psalm 91:14-16, Psalm 44:4-7
‘known to the nations’ - Ezekiel 39:21, Isaiah 40:5
