Isaiah 66:17
Compare all
15 aFor behold, the Lord will come with fire
And with His chariots, like a whirlwind,
To render His anger with fury,
And His rebuke with flames of fire. 
16 For by fire and by aHis sword
The Lord will judge all flesh;
And the slain of the Lord shall be bmany. 
17 “Thosea who sanctify themselves and purify themselves,
To go to the gardens
1After an idol in the midst,
Eating swine’s flesh and the abomination and the mouse,
Shall1 be consumed together,” says the Lord.  
18 “For I know their works and their athoughts. It shall be that I will bgather all nations and tongues; and they shall come and see My glory.  
19 aI will set a sign among them; and those among them who escape I will send to the nations: to Tarshish and Pul and Lud, who draw the bow, and Tubal and Javan, to the coastlands afar off who have not heard My fame nor seen My glory. bAnd they shall declare My glory among the Gentiles.  
20 Then they shall abring all your brethren bfor an offering to the Lord out of all nations, on horses and in chariots and in litters, on mules and on camels, 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.

John Wesley's Notes
<< Isaiah 66:16   Isaiah 66:18 >>


Isaiah 66:17

Gardens - In which they worshipped idols. In the midst - Behind one of the trees, or one by one behind the trees. The abominations - All those beasts forbidden the Jews for meat. God will not only destroy gross idolaters, but all those who make no conscience of yielding obedience to the law of God in such things as seemed to them of a minute nature, and such as they easily might have obeyed.
