Advent II

Then in that day The nations will resort to the root of Jesse, Who will stand as a signal for the peoples; And His resting place will be glorious.  (Isaiah 11:10, NASB)

According to the Bible scholar we saw on The 700 Club, the second stanza of “O Come, O Come, Emmanuel” has its roots in Isaiah.  This verse in this prominent Advent hymn talks about “the rod of Jesse,” or “the root of Jesse” in the NASB.  This refers to a descendant of Jesse, who was King David’s father.  Let’s look deeper. 

” . . . O come, Thou Rod of Jesse, free

Thine own from Satan’s tyranny;

From depths of hell Thy people save,

And give them victory o’er the grave . . . “

“Then in that day The nations will resort to the root of Jesse.”  “In that day” refers to the end of time, when all the Jesus-followers will be in Paradise.  The nations will indeed “resort to the root of Jesse,” which points to Jesus!  Jesse, King David’s father, is in the lineage of Jesus.  Many of the prophets of God predicted that Messiah would be a descendant of King David, Who will sit on David’s throne forever!  And that’s what we celebrate in Advent.  The Apostle Matthew has documented the lineage of Jesus in Chapter 1 of his Gospel.  Although Joseph is not Jesus’ actual father, he is His step-dad, which was legally binding. 

In heaven, Jesus “will stand as a signal for the peoples; And His resting place will be glorious.”  Everyone in heaven will worship Him, and His resting place will indeed be glorious!  After all, it’s heaven! 

In heaven, we’ll worship and serve our King Jesus. I can’t wait! 

SHA’ALU SHALOM YERUSHALAYIM!
