Compare all
5 For every warrior’s1 sandal from the noisy battle,
And garments rolled in blood,
aWill be used for burning and fuel1 of fire.

What Does Isaiah 9:7 Mean?



Isaiah 9:6-7

This revelation does little to define the Messiah in His appearance as a human to crush the ruler of this world and free humanity from the serpent's spiritual grip. However, it describes the greatness of His leadership that will be reflected in the wisdom of His works before being enthroned as the ruler of the World Tomorrow. As King of kings, He will be the Mighty God who rescues and then endlessly rules humanity in the peace it has always desired but could never achieve.
