So how does it end? How do the pieces of Isaiah fit together? Well, today we dive into Isaiah 66 and see the Lord's glorious plan for His Servant, His people and His kingdom. Join us in this exciting conclusion to this wonderful book!

DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS:

1. As we wrap up our study in the book of Isaiah, what key truths were taught about sin in the following verses:
a. Isaiah 1:3
b. Isaiah 59:2
c. Isaiah 64:6
2. What key truths are taught about the New Kingdom and her King in the following verses:
a. Isaiah 2:2
b. Isaiah 7:14
c. Isaiah 9:1
d. Isaiah 9:7
e. Isaiah 11:2
3. In Isaiah 66, verse 1, what can mankind make for God to dwell in? Why? According to verse 2, where does the Lord abide? Who might abide with Him? What does it mean to tremble at the Word of God? Would you say that this phrase describes your disposition to the Lord and His Word?
4. Verse 3 describes the religious hypocrisy of Isaiah’s day. What does it sound like the people were doing? Why was this the equivalent of sacrificing dogs and pigs? Does God embrace this kind of worship? How do people make up their own worship today? Why might the Lord reject that worship too?
5. How does verse 4 show that the people’s worship was truly hypocritical? How might a person today act like they are listening to God when they’re really not?
6. In verse 5, the people who tremble at God’s Word even face persecution from their own family. What does it look like in this verse? Have you ever seen this kind of persecution in our world today? How does a person’s resilience in the face of persecution demonstrate the genuineness of their trust in the Lord?
7. In verse 6, what is the Lord’s response to those who revile His people? What kind of confidence should this give to God’s people when they’re facing persecution for the Lord?
8. Verses 7 to 9 is speaking of how the Lord will form a new people and give birth to a new nation. In light of everything we’ve studied so far in the book of Isaiah, what is this new nation being spoken of here? What kind of hope do you think the Lord intends to convey to His people in these verses? Why would they need this kind of encouragement?
9. In verses 10 to 14, what is the appropriate response to this work of God? How was the Lord guiding Jerusalem to fulfill her purpose to be a spiritual mother to the nations of the world?
10. How does the arrival of this new nation also bring judgment in verses 15 to 18? Why?
11. Verse 19 speaks of how the Lord will send messengers throughout the world. What will be the result of their ministry in verse 20? What is a grain offering? What is the significance of these people being grain offerings to the Lord?
12. Think about the statement in verse 21 that these people from the nations will be legitimate priests and Levites. Under the Old Covenant, how did a person become a priest? What kind of selection process did they undergo? Why are these Gentiles given such a privileged role and place in this new nation?
13. In verse 23, how long will this new nation and these new people last? What will all mankind do before the Lord? What does this also say about the endurance of the people’s worship?
14. Read over verse 24, what is the final point of the Book of Isaiah? How is this still a warning to the world today?
15. Think back to what we have learned from Isaiah about this coming kingdom. Has this kingdom come yet? In this study of Isaiah, how have you seen what it means to be living in light of this future kingdom?
