God’s Highway in the Wilderness

35:1-10
What future hope lay in store for God’s people?
Isaiah 35 looks to the day (ultimately the eschatological day) when those taken into captivity by the Assyrians and Babylonians will return to their land on a safe highway prepared by the Lord. On that day both nature and man will see and experience the transforming power of God. The desert will blossom and the weak will be made strong.
