Chapter 66: Meriting the redemption and the gathering of the exiles
- G-d rests on those of humble spirit: So says G-d, the heaven is My chair, and the earth is My footstool. What house can you build for Me that will be a place for Me to rest. I rest specifically on those who are of humble spirit.
- G-d does not want the offerings of sinners: One who continues his sinful ways but slaughters an ox for an offering is considered by Me as if He has killed a person and slaughtered a dog and brought the blood of a swine to the altar. Their offerings remind Me of their sins. I too will respond to them with punishment.
- A word to the G-d-fearing: Listen those who fear My words, do not pay heed to the words of the sinners who believe that they are greater in My eyes than you. I will show this by joining you in your joyous events while they will be ashamed.
- The return of the exiles: All the Jewish people will be gathered to Jerusalem with great swiftness that the world has never seen.
- Rejoicing Jerusalem: Those who return shall rejoice with Jerusalem and gladden her. This will occur to all those who love Jerusalem and have mourned her during her time of destruction. The city of Jerusalem will be comforted. You will see the redemption of Jerusalem and rejoice.
- Punishing the wicked: G-d will come with a fire of wrath to punish the wicked. The wicked will be judged by fire and by the sword. Those who gather for idol worship and consume the flesh of swine’s and rats and other creatures will all die together.
