Prophecy about the Redeemer

The coming of the Redeemer is foretold in Isaiah 59:20-60:6. The Redeemer is the Light when we compare Isaiah 59:20 and 60:1. Isaiah 60:3 indicates that Gentiles will come to the redeemer at his rising and they will be on camels bringing gold, incense and praises for the Lord according to Isaiah 60:6.

J. Clontz – Editor of the Comprehensive New Testament


Isaiah 59:20 And the Redeemer shall come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, says the Lord. 21 As for me, this is my covenant with them, says the Lord; My spirit that is upon thee, and my words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed's seed, says the Lord, from henceforth and for ever. 60:1 Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee. 2 For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the Lord shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee. 3 And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising. 4 Lift up your eyes round about, and see: all they gather themselves together, they come to you: your sons shall come from far, and you daughters shall be nursed at your side. 5 Then you shall see, and flow together, and your heart shall fear, and be enlarged; because the abundance of the sea shall be converted unto you, the forces of the Gentiles shall come unto you. 6 The multitude of camels shall cover you, the dromedaries of Midian and Ephah; all they from Sheba shall come: they shall bring gold and incense; and they shall show forth the praises of the Lord.
