Isaiah 34-35

It took about 10 minutes to read this passage. Isaiah begins chapter 34 with a call for the attention of the nations to focus on him, God's message that he will deliver. The prophet proclaims punishment, especially on Edom. Then he talks about the radical transformation that God has in store. In 35:4 he speaks of God's coming with vengence, devine retribution, and salvation. Then he elaborates on the scenery after God's arrival. It is a wonderful description of the future hope that he has for us.
