Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 66:1-24

Isaiah 66. Here divisions are hard to define. The theme— the coming punishment of the apostates and the coming glory of the pious— is pursued now on one side, now on the other. Isaiah 66:1-Numbers : . An Attack on the Projectors of a Rival Temple.— Those Jews who refused to accept the reformed religion apparently proposed to set up a rival temple. Yahweh scornfully demands of them in what manner of building they would house Him, whose habitation is the universe. These things— a temple and a... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 66:21

Lest the Jews, being assured that the tribe of Levi, which God anciently chose to minister before him, was among them, should say, Alas, if the Gentiles should be brought in, where would they have priests or Levites? God here by his prophet tells them he would provide priests, he would take of them, of these converted heathens. for priests and Levites, that is, for gospel ministers, to teach and to instruct people, which was the priest’s work of old, Deuteronomy 33:10; 2 Chronicles 17:7,2... read more

Spurgeon's Verse Expositions of the Bible - Isaiah 66:21

A New Order of Priests and Levites by C. H. SPURGEON (1834-1892) "And I will also take of them for priests and for Levites, saith the Lord." Isaiah 66:21 . This chapter is surrounded with critical difficulties, and yet it is full of spiritual instruction. The verse before us is by some referred to Gentiles, and supposed to mean that the Lord promises that he will take out of the heathen nations a people whom he will make into priests and Levites. Others would say it points to the Jews,... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Isaiah 66:1-24

Chapter 66Thus saith the LORD, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: where is the house that you build unto me? and where is the place of my rest? ( Isaiah 66:1 )They're going to build a new temple, but God says, "Hey, don't need it." And this is that temple that will probably be built at the covenant of the antichrist. Thus saith the Lord, "The heaven is My throne, the earth is My footstool. Where is the house that you will build for Me? Where is the place of My rest?"For all... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 66:1-24

Isaiah 66:1 . The heaven is my throne. This chapter applies to Isaiah’s time, as well as to future times; and though the Lord rejected the impure worship of the temple, yet he would dwell with the contrite and with the tremblers at his word. It seems from the connection to import, that God would forsake his sanctuary, and dwell with those who worship him in spirit and in truth. Where is the house that ye build unto me? These words are spoken to designate the grandeur and immensity of the... read more

Isaiah 66:21And I will also take of them for priests and for LevitesTaken for priests and for LevitesThose taken to be priests and Levites might be the Gentiles who bring back the dispersed of Israel, or the restored Israelites themselves.The latter is the more probable meaning. (A. B.Davidson, D. D.)“From them” refers to the converted heathen, by whom the Israelites were brought back to their home. (F. Delitzsch,. D.D.)Incorporated in Jehovah’s priestly Church (Isaiah 61:6), the heathen are... read more
