Isaiah 65:25
Compare all
23 They shall not labor in vain,
aNor bring forth children for trouble;
For bthey shall be the descendants of the blessed of the Lord,
And their offspring with them. 
24 “It shall come to pass
That abefore they call, I will answer;
And while they are still speaking, I will bhear. 
25 The awolf and the lamb shall feed together,
The lion shall eat straw like the ox,
bAnd dust shall be the serpent’s food.
They shall not hurt nor destroy in all My holy mountain,”
Says the Lord.

John Wesley's Notes
<< Isaiah 65:24   Isaiah 66:1 >>


Isaiah 65:25

The wolf, etc. - God here promises to take off the fierceness of the spirits of his peoples enemies, so that they shall live quietly and peaceably together. And dust - God promises a time of tranquility to his church under the metaphor of serpents eating the dust, their proper meat, Genesis 3:14, instead of flying upon men: it signifies such a time, when wicked men shall no more eat up the people of God.
