This assurance of permanence contrasts with the temporal nature of the current world. The phrase "declares the LORD" adds authority and certainty to the promise, as it is a direct statement from God Himself. This enduring presence aligns with the biblical theme of God's eternal kingdom, as seen in passages like <a href="/daniel/7-14.htm">Daniel 7:14</a> and <a href="/psalms/145-13.htm">Psalm 145:13</a>.“so your descendants and your name will endure. This promise to the faithful remnant of Israel assures them of their lasting legacy and identity. The endurance of "your descendants and your name" reflects the covenantal promises made to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, ensuring the continuation of God's chosen people. It also points to the spiritual descendants of Abraham, as mentioned in <a href="/galatians/3-29.htm">Galatians 3:29</a>, who are part of God's eternal family through faith in Christ.

So shall your seed and your name remain. This statement is usually taken to be a promise of some special pre-eminence to the Jew over the Gentile in the final kingdom of the redeemed. But St. Paul speaks of all such privileges as already abolished in his day (<a href="/colossians/3-11.htm">Colossians 3:11</a>); and, if the priesthood is to be common to both Gentile and Jew, the principle of equality would seem to be conceded. Perhaps no more is here meant than that, as the "new heaven and new earth" will always remain, so there will always remain a seed of true believers to worship God in them. <a href="/commentaries/isaiah/66-22.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a> <a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div>“For כִּ֣י (kî) Conjunction <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3588.htm">Strong's 3588: </a> A relative conjunction just as כַאֲשֶׁ֣ר (ḵa·’ă·šer) Preposition-k | Pronoun - relative <a href="/hebrew/strongs_834.htm">Strong's 834: </a> Who, which, what, that, when, where, how, because, in order that the new הַ֠חֳדָשִׁים (ha·ḥo·ḏā·šîm) Article | Adjective - masculine plural <a href="/hebrew/strongs_2319.htm">Strong's 2319: </a> New heavens הַשָּׁמַ֣יִם (haš·šā·ma·yim) Article | Noun - masculine plural <a href="/hebrew/strongs_8064.htm">Strong's 8064: </a> Heaven, sky and the new הַחֲדָשָׁ֜ה (ha·ḥă·ḏā·šāh) Article | Adjective - feminine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_2319.htm">Strong's 2319: </a> New earth, וְהָאָ֨רֶץ (wə·hā·’ā·reṣ) Conjunctive waw, Article | Noun - feminine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_776.htm">Strong's 776: </a> Earth, land which אֲשֶׁ֨ר (’ă·šer) Pronoun - relative <a href="/hebrew/strongs_834.htm">Strong's 834: </a> Who, which, what, that, when, where, how, because, in order that I אֲנִ֥י (’ă·nî) Pronoun - first person common singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_589.htm">Strong's 589: </a> I will make, עֹשֶׂ֛ה (‘ō·śeh) Verb - Qal - Participle - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_6213.htm">Strong's 6213: </a> To do, make will endure עֹמְדִ֥ים (‘ō·mə·ḏîm) Verb - Qal - Participle - masculine plural <a href="/hebrew/strongs_5975.htm">Strong's 5975: </a> To stand, in various relations before Me,” לְפָנַ֖י (lə·p̄ā·nay) Preposition-l | Noun - masculine plural construct | first person common singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_6440.htm">Strong's 6440: </a> The face declares נְאֻם־ (nə·’um-) Noun - masculine singular construct <a href="/hebrew/strongs_5002.htm">Strong's 5002: </a> An oracle the LORD, יְהוָ֑ה (Yah·weh) Noun - proper - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3068.htm">Strong's 3068: </a> LORD -- the proper name of the God of Israel “so כֵּ֛ן (kên) Adverb <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3651.htm">Strong's 3651: </a> So -- thus your descendants זַרְעֲכֶ֖ם (zar·‘ă·ḵem) Noun - masculine singular construct | second person masculine plural <a href="/hebrew/strongs_2233.htm">Strong's 2233: </a> Seed, fruit, plant, sowing-time, posterity and your name וְשִׁמְכֶֽם׃ (wə·šim·ḵem) Conjunctive waw | Noun - masculine singular construct | second person masculine plural <a href="/hebrew/strongs_8034.htm">Strong's 8034: </a> A name will endure. יַעֲמֹ֥ד (ya·‘ă·mōḏ) Verb - Qal - Imperfect - third person masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_5975.htm">Strong's 5975: </a> To stand, in various relations <div class="vheading">Links</div><a href="/niv/isaiah/66-22.htm">Isaiah 66:22 NIV</a> <a href="/nlt/isaiah/66-22.htm">Isaiah 66:22 NLT</a> <a href="/esv/isaiah/66-22.htm">Isaiah 66:22 ESV</a> <a href="/nasb/isaiah/66-22.htm">Isaiah 66:22 NASB</a> <a href="/kjv/isaiah/66-22.htm">Isaiah 66:22 KJV</a> <a href="//bibleapps.com/isaiah/66-22.htm">Isaiah 66:22 BibleApps.com</a> <a href="//bibliaparalela.com/isaiah/66-22.htm">Isaiah 66:22 Biblia Paralela</a> <a href="//holybible.com.cn/isaiah/66-22.htm">Isaiah 66:22 Chinese Bible</a> <a href="//saintebible.com/isaiah/66-22.htm">Isaiah 66:22 French Bible</a> <a href="/catholic/isaiah/66-22.htm">Isaiah 66:22 Catholic Bible</a> <a href="/isaiah/66-22.htm">OT Prophets: Isaiah 66:22 For as the new heavens and (Isa Isi Is)</a></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="left"><a href="/isaiah/66-21.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="Isaiah 66:21"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="Isaiah 66:21" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/isaiah/66-23.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="Isaiah 66:23"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="Isaiah 66:23" /></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>
