Isaiah 65:18 - Forerunner Commentary

Isaiah 65:18

16 ^aSo that he who blesses himself in the earth
Shall bless himself in the God of truth;
And ^bhe who swears in the earth
Shall swear by the God of truth;
Because the former troubles are forgotten,
And because they are hidden from My eyes.

The Glorious New Creation

17 “For behold, I create ^anew heavens and a new earth;
And the former shall not be remembered or¹ come to mind.

18 But be glad and rejoice forever in what I create;
For behold, I create Jerusalem as a rejoicing,
And her people a joy.

19 ^aI will rejoice in Jerusalem,
And joy in My people;
The ^bvoice of weeping shall no longer be heard in her,
Nor the voice of crying.

20 “No more shall an infant from there live but a few days,
Nor an old man who has not fulfilled his days;
For the child shall die one hundred years old,
^aBut the sinner being one hundred years old shall be accursed.

21 ^aThey shall build houses and inhabit them;
They shall plant vineyards and eat their fruit.

22 They shall not build and another inhabit;
They shall not plant and ^aanother eat;
For ^bas the days of a tree, so shall be the days of My people,
And ^cMy elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.
