Jesus will rule all mankind from Jerusalem for 1,000 years (known as the Millennium). how the church at Antioch started: the Word of God was preached, and as people heard it the Holy Spirit worked. These verses discuss the fact that the Lord, when he returns to rule the earth, will righteously judge in favor of the poor and meek. It is the spirit of the Lord (Jehovah), which is found at the beginning of the verse and which makes everything possible.Įvidence that Isaiah is primarily prophesizing concerning Jesus Christ's second coming (and afterwards) is found after verse 4 of chapter 11.

This verse was a prophetic promise of the fullness of the Holy Spirit that would come upon Jesus. They are given in three sets of two each. These Seven Spirits are described in Isaiah 11:2: The Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon Him, The Spirit of wisdom and understanding, The Spirit of counsel and might, The Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord. Six of the seven gifts that will rest or abide in Christ are obvious in verse 2.
