Isa Isaiah, chapter Book of Isaiah, chapter 56
This is what the Lord says: Follow the law, and do what is right, for my salvation will soon arrive, and my goodness will be revealed. Blessed is everyone who does this—those who keep to it, who observe the Sabbath without violating it, and who don't do anything wrong.
Don't allow foreigners who have dedicated themselves to the Lord say, “The Lord will definitely exclude me from his people.” And don't allow eunuchs to say, “Look at me—I'm as worthless as a dried-up tree because I'm childless.”Deu 23:3; Eph 2:19
For this is what the Lord says: To the eunuchs who observe my Sabbaths, who choose to do what pleases me, and to keep my agreement, Isa 58:13I will give them, in my house and within my walls, a place to remember them and a reputation better than that of sons and daughters. I will give them an everlasting reputation that will never fade.Jhn 1:12; 1Jn 3:2; Rev 2:17
About the foreigners who have dedicated themselves to the Lord, who worship him, who love the Lord, and who are his servants—all who observe the Sabbath without violating it and who keep to my agreement— Isa 60:10; Ezk 47:22; Act 10:35I will bring these foreigners to my holy mountain and make them happy in my house of prayer. I will accept their burnt offerings and sacrifices, because my Temple will be called a house of prayer for all nations. Isa 2:2; Mat 21:13; Mrk 11:17; Luk 19:46This is what the Lord God says, who brought back the scattered people of Israel: I will bring back still others56:8. “Others”: referring to the foreigners. to join you.Jhn 10:16; Eph 2:13
Come, wild animals, wild animals of the countryside and forests, come and eat my people! Jer 7:33For all the watchmen are blind. None of them know what's going on. They're all silent—they can't bark. They spend their time lying down, dreaming, loving to sleep. Luk 6:39; Rev 22:15; 2Pe 2:13They're greedy dogs that are never satisfied. They're sheepdogs who don't know their job. All of them go their own way, each of them looking out for themselves.Jer 6:13; Jer 8:10
“Come on,” they say, “I'll get some wine and let's get drunk! We'll do this today, and tomorrow we'll drink so much more!”Isa 22:13; 1Co 15:32
