In ancient times, messengers traveled by foot across difficult terrains, such as mountains, to deliver important messages. The imagery of "beautiful feet" highlights the value and honor given to those who bring the message of hope and redemption. This is echoed in the New Testament, where Paul references this verse in <a href="/romans/10-15.htm">Romans 10:15</a>, underscoring the importance of spreading the Gospel.who proclaim peace The proclamation of peace is central to the message of salvation. In the context of Isaiah, peace refers not only to the absence of conflict but also to the restoration of a right relationship with God. This peace is a foretaste of the Messianic kingdom, where true peace will be established. Jesus Christ is often referred to as the "Prince of Peace" (<a href="/isaiah/9-6.htm">Isaiah 9:6</a>), fulfilling this prophecy through His life, death, and resurrection.who bring good tidings Good tidings, or good news, is synonymous with the Gospel. In the historical context, this would have been understood as the announcement of deliverance from exile and the restoration of Israel. For Christians, this phrase foreshadows the ultimate good news of Jesus Christ's victory over sin and death, offering eternal life to believers.who proclaim salvation Salvation in this context refers to deliverance from oppression and the restoration of God's people. It is both a physical and spiritual deliverance. Theologically, this points to the salvation offered through Jesus Christ, who provides a way for humanity to be reconciled with God. This proclamation is central to the Christian faith and mission.who say to Zion, “Your God reigns!” Zion, representing Jerusalem and the people of God, is assured of God's sovereignty and kingship. This declaration is a reminder of God's ultimate authority and His faithfulness to His promises. It is a message of hope and assurance that God is in control, regardless of current circumstances. This theme is echoed in <a href="/revelation/19-6.htm">Revelation 19:6</a>, where the reign of God is celebrated in the heavenly vision.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <a href="/topical/t/the_messenger.htm">The Messenger</a> The verse speaks of a messenger who brings good news.

The prophet sees the messenger come bounding over the mountains of Judaea, to bring the news to Jerusalem that her deliverance is come (ver. 7). The angelic watchers sing with joy (ver. 8). The prophet calls upon the waste places of Jerusalem to do the same, and dwells on the greatness of the mercy wrought (vers. 9, 10). Finally, he exhorts the exiles to avail themselves of the permission to quit Babylon, and prophesies that they will go forth in peace, without hurry, under the guidance and protection of God (vers. 11, 12). Verse 7. - How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace! (comp. <a href="/nahum/1-15.htm">Nahum 1:15</a>, which is almost a repetition of the passage). The primary meaning is undoubtedly that assigned to the words in the introductory paragraph; but this does not hinder there being also a secondary meaning, viz. the Messianic one of <a href="/romans/10-15.htm">Romans 10:15</a>. Jerusalem's deliverance is a type of the redemption of the world by Christ. That saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth! So long as Israel was in captivity, and Jerusalem in ruins, God's earthly sovereignty (<a href="/1_samuel/12-12.htm">1 Samuel 12:12</a>) was in abeyance. The moment that the Jews were set free and allowed to return and to rebuild their city, his. sovereignty was re-established. <a href="/commentaries/isaiah/52-7.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a> <a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div>How מַה־ (mah-) Interrogative <a href="/hebrew/strongs_4100.htm">Strong's 4100: </a> What?, what!, indefinitely what beautiful נָּאו֨וּ (nā·wū) Verb - Qal - Perfect - third person common plural <a href="/hebrew/strongs_4998.htm">Strong's 4998: </a> To be at home, to be pleasant, beautiful on עַל־ (‘al-) Preposition <a href="/hebrew/strongs_5921.htm">Strong's 5921: </a> Above, over, upon, against the mountains הֶהָרִ֜ים (he·hā·rîm) Article | Noun - masculine plural <a href="/hebrew/strongs_2022.htm">Strong's 2022: </a> Mountain, hill, hill country are the feet רַגְלֵ֣י (raḡ·lê) Noun - fdc <a href="/hebrew/strongs_7272.htm">Strong's 7272: </a> A foot, a step, the pudenda of those who bring good news, מְבַשֵּׂ֗ר (mə·ḇaś·śêr) Verb - Piel - Participle - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_1319.htm">Strong's 1319: </a> To be fresh, full, cheerful), to announce who proclaim מַשְׁמִ֧יעַ (maš·mî·a‘) Verb - Hifil - Participle - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_8085.htm">Strong's 8085: </a> To hear intelligently peace, שָׁל֛וֹם (šā·lō·wm) Noun - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_7965.htm">Strong's 7965: </a> Safe, well, happy, friendly, welfare, health, prosperity, peace who bring מְבַשֵּׂ֥ר (mə·ḇaś·śêr) Verb - Piel - Participle - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_1319.htm">Strong's 1319: </a> To be fresh, full, cheerful), to announce good tidings, ט֖וֹב (ṭō·wḇ) Noun - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_2896.htm">Strong's 2896: </a> Pleasant, agreeable, good who proclaim מַשְׁמִ֣יעַ (maš·mî·a‘) Verb - Hifil - Participle - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_8085.htm">Strong's 8085: </a> To hear intelligently salvation, יְשׁוּעָ֑ה (yə·šū·‘āh) Noun - feminine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3444.htm">Strong's 3444: </a> Something saved, deliverance, aid, victory, prosperity who say אֹמֵ֥ר (’ō·mêr) Verb - Qal - Participle - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_559.htm">Strong's 559: </a> To utter, say to Zion, לְצִיּ֖וֹן (lə·ṣî·yō·wn) Preposition-l | Noun - proper - feminine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_6726.htm">Strong's 6726: </a> Zion -- a mountain in Jerusalem, also a name for Jerusalem “Your God אֱלֹהָֽיִךְ׃ (’ĕ·lō·hā·yiḵ) Noun - masculine plural construct | second person feminine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_430.htm">Strong's 430: </a> gods -- the supreme God, magistrates, a superlative reigns!” מָלַ֥ךְ (mā·laḵ) Verb - Qal - Perfect - third person masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_4427.htm">Strong's 4427: </a> To reign, inceptively, to ascend the throne, to induct into royalty, to take counsel <div class="vheading">Links</div><a href="/niv/isaiah/52-7.htm">Isaiah 52:7 NIV</a> <a href="/nlt/isaiah/52-7.htm">Isaiah 52:7 NLT</a> <a href="/esv/isaiah/52-7.htm">Isaiah 52:7 ESV</a> <a href="/nasb/isaiah/52-7.htm">Isaiah 52:7 NASB</a> <a href="/kjv/isaiah/52-7.htm">Isaiah 52:7 KJV</a> <a href="//bibleapps.com/isaiah/52-7.htm">Isaiah 52:7 BibleApps.com</a> <a href="//bibliaparalela.com/isaiah/52-7.htm">Isaiah 52:7 Biblia Paralela</a> <a href="//holybible.com.cn/isaiah/52-7.htm">Isaiah 52:7 Chinese Bible</a> <a href="//saintebible.com/isaiah/52-7.htm">Isaiah 52:7 French Bible</a> <a href="/catholic/isaiah/52-7.htm">Isaiah 52:7 Catholic Bible</a> <a href="/isaiah/52-7.htm">OT Prophets: Isaiah 52:7 How beautiful on the mountains are (Isa Isi Is)</a></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="left"><a href="/isaiah/52-6.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="Isaiah 52:6"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="Isaiah 52:6" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/isaiah/52-8.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="Isaiah 52:8"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="Isaiah 52:8" /></a></div><div id="botleft"><a href="#" onmouseover='botleft.src="/botleftgif.png"' onmouseout='botleft.src="/botleft.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botleft.png" name="botleft" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="botright"><a href="#" onmouseover='botright.src="/botrightgif.png"' onmouseout='botright.src="/botright.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botright.png" name="botright" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="bot"><iframe width="100%" height="1500" scrolling="no" src="/botmenubhnew2.htm" frameborder="0"></iframe></div></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
