Bible Note: I certainly understand your explanation. However, I would like to point out that, in the event this is prophecy, the verses need not follow a "break," to change meaning from scripture at hand to prophecy. I believe that in every capacity this passage describes, as Isaiah intended, the King of Babylon. However, I get the impression that similar to other instances of Christ Prophecy in the Old Testament, the prophecy is incripted into the literal intent of the passage. Consider the example in Malachi 2:5 and 2:6. "My covenant with him was one of life and peace, and I gave them to him as an object of reverence; so he revered Me and stood in awe of My name. True instruction was in his mouth and unrighteousness was not found on his lips; he walked with Me in peace and uprightness, and he turned many back from iniquity." By context this passage is describing "Levi," but by implication is most certainly prophecy of the Christ. I suppose my point is this: a passage or particular verse need not be isolated in topic to be prophetic. Frequently it seems, the passage is written about something entirely unrelated. Just look to the Psalms. Anyway, I appreciate your time and thoughtfulness. Any idea why this thread is restricted. |
