Today Mark is discussing Isaiah 13-39.
“Draw near, O nations, to hear, and give attention, O peoples! Let the earth hear, and all that fills it; the world, and all that comes from it. For the Lord is enraged against all the nations, and furious against all their host….
Strengthen the weak hands…say to those who have an anxious heart, 'Be strong; fear not!'… Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened,.. And the ransomed of the Lord shall return and come to Zion with singing; everlasting joy shall be upon their heads; they shall obtain gladness and joy, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.” —Taken from Isaiah 34:1-2; 35:3-5,10
