Isaiah 66:14, “…by fire YHWH will enter into judgment, and by His sword, with all flesh; and those slain by YHWH shall be many.” I tend to emphasize the revelation of God’s identity at the cross–as I think the authors of the New Testament do as well. However, the Name of God revealed in […]
Isaiah 65:13-14, “Behold, my servants shall eat, but you shall go hungry; behold, my servants shall drink, but you shall be thirsty; behold, my servants shall rejoice, but you shall be put to shame; behold, my servants shall sing for gladness of heart, but you shall cry out for pain of heart and shall
