Glory to the righteous one

Up to this point in our study of Isaiah, the prophet has prophesied that Judah will be judged for living like secular people, even though God brought them into existence for his purposes (Isa. 1-12). Moreover, all the nations with which Judah sought alignment will also face punishment (Isa. 13-23). Isaiah describes God’s eventual judgment of the world in the following four chapters. Isaiah 24-27 is often called “Isaiah’s Apocalypse.” Due to sin, we exist in a secular world that will one day face final consequences for rejecting God. This section outlines the destruction, the suffering during the tribulation, and the abundant blessings to come in the millennial kingdom.
