Foretelling of the Winepress of the Anger of God |
Isaiah 63:1-19 The Book of Isaiah [in Smaller Chunks] |
Who is this, [who] comes from Edom, with dyed [clothing] from Bozrah? Is this [He, Who] is traveling in the greatness of His strength & is glorious in His apparel? I, [Who] speak in righteousness, [is] mighty to save. *[For what reason] are You in red apparel & your [clothing] like him, [who tramples] in the [winepress?] |
[Revelation 19:14-15 And the armies [that] were in heaven followed Him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white & clean. And out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it, He should smite the nations & He should rule them with a rod of Iron. And He [tramples] the winepress of the fierceness & wrath of Almighty God.] |
*I have [trampled] the winepress alone. And none of the people there were with Me: For I will [walk on] them in [My] anger & trample them in My fury. And their blood shall be sprinkled upon My garments & I will stain all My [clothing.] For the day of vengeance is in [My] heart & the year of My redeemed [has] come. |
[Isaiah 61:1-2 *The Spirit of the Lord God is upon Me; because the Lord has anointed Me to preach good [news] to the meek. He has sent Me to [bandage] up the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives & the opening of the prison to [those who] are bound. *To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord & the day of vengeance of our God & to comfort all [who] mourn.] |
And I looked & there [were] none to help. And I wondered that there [wasn’t any] to uphold. Therefore, [My] Own arm brought Salvation to Me & My fury upheld Me. [Isaiah 59:16 And He saw that there was no man & wondered that there [wasn’t anyone to plead on their behalf.] Therefore, His arm brought Salvation to Him & His righteousness sustained Him.] |
And I will [trample] down the people in [My] anger & make them drunk in My fury. And I will bring their strength down to the [ground.] [Isaiah 35:4 Say to [those who have] a fearful heart, Be strong & [don’t] fear. [Look,] your God will come with vengeance, even God with a [repayment.] He will come & save you.] |
I will mention the loving kindnesses of the Lord & the praises of the Lord, according to all He has bestowed on us & the great goodness toward the house of Israel, [that] He has bestowed on them according to His mercies & the multitude of His loving kindnesses. |
For He said, Surely, they are My people, children [who] won’t lie. So He was their Savior. In all their affliction, He was [suffering.] [In] His presence, the Angel saved them. And in His love & His pity, He redeemed them & He [bore] them & carried them all the days of old. |
But they rebelled & [troubled] His Holy Spirit. Therefore, He was turned, & [became] their enemy & He fought against them. [Isaiah 15:24-25 The Lord of Hosts has sworn, saying, Surely, as I have thought, so shall it [happen] & as I have [intended,] so shall it stand. That I will break the Assyrian in My land. And I will [trample] him under foot upon My mountains. Then, his yoke shall depart from off them & his [oppressive] burden [shall] depart from off their shoulders.] |
Then, He remembered the days of old, Moses & His people, saying, Where is He, [Who] brought them out of the sea with the shepherd of His flock? Where is He, [Who] put His Holy Spirit within [them?] [Who] led them by the right hand of Moses with His glorious arm, dividing the water [in front of] them, to make Himself an everlasting Name? |
[Psalm 78:10-13 They [didn’t keep] the covenant of God & refused to [follow] in His Law. And [forgot] His works & wonders, [a.k.a. miracles,] that He had [shown] them. |
Marvelous things He did in the sight of their [forefathers,] in the land of Egypt, in the field of Zoan. He divided the [Red] Sea & caused them to [cross] through & He made the waters to stand [up, like] a heap.] |
[Who] led them through the deep, [like a] horse in the wilderness, [so] that they shouldn’t stumble? The Spirit of the Lord caused [them] to rest [like an animal] goes down into the valley, so You [led] Your people, to make Yourself a glorious Name. |
Look down from heaven & [see] from Your [Holy] habitation, of Your glory. Where is Your zeal & Your strength, the [sound] of Your [groaning stomach] & Your mercies toward Me? Are they [held back?] Doubless, You are our Father, [although] Abraham [was unaware] of us & Israel [didn’t] acknowledge us. |
You, O Lord, are our Father & our Redeemer. Your Name is from everlasting. O Lord, why have You [given] us [an opportunity] to [go astray] from Your ways & hardened our heart from Your fear [respect?] Return for the sake of Your [servants] & the tribe of Your inheritance. |
[Isaiah 6:9-10 *And He said, Go & tell this people, You indeed hear, but [don’t] understand & you indeed see, but [don’t realize.] *Make the heart of this people [thick] & make their ears heavy & shut their eyes; lest they see with their ears & understand with their hearts & convert & be healed.] |
The people of your holiness have possessed it, but [only] a little while. Our [enemies] have [trampled] down Your sanctuary. [2 Kings 25:12-14 But the captain of the guard left the poor of the land to be [keepers of the vineyards & farmers.] |
And the pillars of brass that were in the [Lord’s] house, the [basins] & the [brass] sea, the [Chaldeans] broke in pieces & carried the brass [from] the [Lord’s] house [from] them to Babylon.] |
We are Yours [like those whom] You never [ruled] over, [but] they [never] were called by Your Name. |
