Old Testament - Isaiah 64

Revlation : Isaiah

Isaiah is a call to repentance. Only through repentance can we stand in the presence of God. This call was not heard, and as a result, the Israelites were destroyed as a nation and sent into exile in Babylon.

Later their is a prophecy of restoration. Yet how can a dead nation come to life? How can a scattered and defeated nation be restored? How can sin be atoned for? How can God be just without destroying us?
Oh that thou wouldest rend the heavens, that thou wouldest come down, that the mountains might flow down at thy presence,
ISAIAH 64:1
As when the melting fire burneth, the fire causeth the waters to boil, to make thy name known to thine adversaries, that the nations may tremble at thy presence!
ISAIAH 64:2
When thou didst terrible things which we looked not for, thou camest down, the mountains flowed down at thy presence.
ISAIAH 64:3
For since the beginning of the world men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O God, beside thee, what he hath prepared for him that waiteth for him.
ISAIAH 64:4
Thou meetest him that rejoiceth and worketh righteousness, those that remember thee in thy ways behold, thou art wroth; for we have sinned in those is continuance, and we shall be saved.
ISAIAH 64:5
But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
ISAIAH 64:6
And there is none that calleth upon thy name, that stirreth up himself to take hold of thee for thou hast hid thy face from us, and hast consumed us, because of our iniquities.
ISAIAH 64:7
But now, O LORD, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand.
ISAIAH 64:8
Be not wroth very sore, O LORD, neither remember iniquity for ever behold, see, we beseech thee, we are all thy people.
ISAIAH 64:9
Thy holy cities are a wilderness, Zion is a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.
ISAIAH 64:10
Our holy and our beautiful house, where our fathers praised thee, is burned up with fire and all our pleasant things are laid waste.
ISAIAH 64:11
Wilt thou refrain thyself for these things, O LORD? wilt thou hold thy peace, and afflict us very sore?
ISAIAH 64:12
