Bible Question: Isaiah 60 verse 1. Can someone explain this verse to me in simplist terms possible |
Bible Answer: You have to remember Isaiah was written much in the same way as Daniel and Revelation with a great deal of figurative language. Thus, it is difficult to interpret which portions are to be taken literally and which is figurative. In this case, it looks mostly figurative and I think he's talking about the coming of the Lord's Kingdom in this dispensation after Christianity is established in Jerusalem. But that's my perspective and I'm sure you'll get others. What do you think of this chapter? God bless. |
