Thus said Hashem (G-d)…

“Corrupt Offerings”

Thus said Hashem: The Heaven is My throne and the earth is My footstool; what house could you build for Me, and what place can be My resting place?
66:1
My hand created all these things and thus all these things came into being — the word of Hashem — but it is to this that I look: to the poor and broken-spirited person who is zealous regarding My word.
66:2
He who slaughters an ox [is as if he] slays a man; … he who brings up a meal-offering [is as if he offers] a swine’s blood; … They have even chosen their ways and their souls have desired their abominations.
66:3
I, too, will choose to mock them and what they dread I will bring upon them — because I called but no one responded; I spoke but they did not hear. They did what is wrong in My eyes and what I did not desire, they chose.
:4
Listen to the word of Hashem, you who are zealous regarding His word: Your brethren, who hate you and shun you, say, ‘Hashem is glorified because of my reputation. — but we will see your gladness, while they will be shamed!
:5
Be glad in Jerusalem and rejoice in her, all you who love her; exult with her in exultation, all you who mourned for her;
:10
For thus said Hashem: Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river and the wealth of nations like a surging stream, and you will suckle; you will be carried on the side and dandled on the knees.
:12
Like a man whose mother consoled him, so will I console you, and in Jerusalem you will be consoled.
:13
… the hand of Hashem will be known to His servants, and He will show anger to His enemies.
:14
For Hashem will enter into judgment with fire and with His sword against all mankind; there will be many who will be slain by Hashem.
:16
… and those who eat the flesh of the swine, the abominable creature, and the mouse will all be consumed together — the word of Hashem.
:17
I [know] their actions and their thoughts; [the time] has come to gather all the nations and tongues, they will come and see My glory.
:18
For just as the new heavens and the new earth that I will make will endure before Me — the word of Hashem — so will your offspring and your name endure.
:22
It shall be that at every New Moon and on every Sabbath all mankind will come to prostrate themselves before Me, says Hashem.
:23
And they will go out and see the corpses of the men who rebelled against Me, for their decay will not cease and their fire will not be extinguished, and they will lie in disgrace before all mankind.
:24

1 So says the Lord, “The heavens are My throne, and the earth is My footstool; which is the house that you will build for Me, and which is the place of My rest?
2 And all these My hand made, and all these have become,” says the Lord. “But to this one will I look, to one poor and of crushed spirit, who hastens to do My bidding.
3 Whoever slaughters an ox has slain a man; he who slaughters a lamb is as though he beheads a dog; he who offers up a meal-offering is [like] swine blood; he who burns frankincense brings a gift of violence; they, too, chose their ways, and their soul desired their abominations.
4 I, too, will choose their mockeries, and their fears I will bring to them, since I called and no one answered, I spoke and they did not hearken, and they did what was evil in My eyes, and what I did not wish they chose.
5 Hearken to the word of the Lord, who quake at His word, “Your brethren who hate you, who cast you out, said, “For the sake of my name, the Lord shall be glorified,” but we will see your joy, and they shall be ashamed.
6 There is a sound of stirring from the city, a sound from the Temple, the voice of the Lord, recompensing His enemies.
7 When she has not yet travailed, she has given birth; when the pang has not yet come to her, she has been delivered of a male child.
8 Who heard [anything] like this? Who saw [anything] like these? Is a land born in one day? Is a nation born at once, that Zion both experienced birth pangs and bore her children?
9 “Will I bring to the birth stool and not cause to give birth?” says the Lord. “Am I not He who causes to give birth, now should I shut the womb?” says your God.
10 Rejoice with Jerusalem and exult in her all those who love her: rejoice with her a rejoicing, all who mourn over her.
11 In order that you suck and become sated from the breast of her consolations in order that you drink deeply and delight from her approaching glory.
12 For so says the Lord, “Behold, I will extend peace to you like a river, and like a flooding stream the wealth of the nations, and you shall suck thereof; on the side you shall be borne, and on knees you shall be dandled.
13 Like a man whose mother consoles him, so will I console you, and in Jerusalem, you shall be consoled.
14 And you shall see, and your heart shall rejoice, and your bones shall bloom like grass, and the hand of the Lord shall be known to His servants, and He shall be wroth with His enemies.
15 For behold, the Lord shall come with fire, and like a tempest, His chariots, to render His anger with fury, and His rebuke with flames of fire.
16 For with fire, will the Lord contend, and with His sword with all flesh, and those slain by the Lord shall be many.
17 “Those who prepare themselves and purify themselves to the gardens, [one] after another in the middle, those who eat the flesh of the swine and the detestable thing and the rodent, shall perish together,” says the Lord.
18 And I-their deeds and their thoughts have come to gather all the nations and the tongues, and they shall come and they shall see My glory.
19 And I will place a sign upon them, and I will send from them refugees to the nations, Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, who draw the bow, to Tubal and Javan, the distant islands, who did not hear of My fame and did not see My glory, and they shall recount My glory among the nations.
20 And they shall bring all your brethren from all the nations as a tribute to the Lord, with horses and with chariots, and with covered wagons and with mules and with joyous songs upon My holy mount, Jerusalem,” says the Lord, “as the children of Israel bring the offering in a pure vessel to the house of the Lord.
21 And from them too will I take for priests and for Levites,” says the Lord.
22 “For, as the new heavens and the new earth that I am making, stand before Me,” says the Lord, “so shall your seed and your name stand.
23 And it shall be from new moon to new moon and from Sabbath to Sabbath, that all flesh shall come to prostrate themselves before Me,” says the Lord.
24 “And they shall go out and see the corpses of the people who rebelled against Me, for their worm shall not die, and their fire shall not be quenched, and they shall be an abhorring for all flesh.”

GALLERY
Bible reading in the form of Scripture in pictures can have a profound impact on those who may have never read a chapter in the Hebrew Bible (Old Testament). Viewing pivotal verses in a visual context can deepen one’s understanding of the text and provide a unique perspective. The images may help to illustrate important themes and messages that may not have been as easily grasped through standard reading. Additionally, this method can be particularly beneficial for those who struggle with traditional reading methods or for those who are more visually inclined. The power of visual storytelling has been utilized for centuries, and when paired with the timeless words of Scripture, it has the potential to bring new life and meaning to the ancient text. Ultimately, whatever method one chooses to engage with the Bible, the most important thing is to seek a deeper understanding of God’s word, and to apply it to our lives in a meaningful way.
