They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree are the days of my people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
The verse 22 is found in chapter 65 of Isaiah. God responds by showing that he was found by those who did not seek him, while Israel persisted in rebellion. Judgment against idolatry is contrasted with the preservation of God’s servants. Then comes the vision of new heavens and a new earth, where premature death, injustice, and suffering are radically transformed and creation is characterized by peace.
Meditate on this verse and share your reflection or spiritual experience with the community. Your comments will enrich everyone's learning.
