Context
66:16 For the Lord judges all humanity with fire and his sword ; the Lord will kill many .
66:17 “As for those who consecrate and ritually purify themselves so they can follow their leader and worship in the sacred orchards , those who eat the flesh of pigs and other disgusting creatures, like mice – they will all be destroyed together ,” says the Lord .
66:18 “I hate their deeds and thoughts ! So I am coming to gather all the nations and ethnic groups ; they will come and witness my splendor .
66:19 I will perform a mighty act among them and then send some of those who remain to the nations – to Tarshish , Pul , Lud (known for its archers ), Tubal , Javan , and to the distant coastlands that have not heard about me or seen my splendor . They will tell the nations of my splendor .
66:20 They will bring back all your countrymen from all the nations as an offering to the Lord . They will bring them on horses , in chariots , in wagons , on mules , and on camels to my holy hill Jerusalem ,” says the Lord , “just as the Israelites bring offerings to the Lord’s temple in ritually pure containers .
66:21 And I will choose some of them as priests and Levites ,” says the Lord .
66:22 “For just as the new heavens and the new earth I am about to make will remain standing before me,” says the Lord , “so your descendants and your name will remain .
66:23 From one month to the next and from one Sabbath to the next, all people will come to worship me ,” says the Lord .
66:24 “They will go out and observe the corpses of those who rebelled against me, for the maggots that eat them will not die , and the fire that consumes them will not die out. All people will find the sight abhorrent .”
