He has sent Me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and freedom to the prisoners, / to proclaim the year of the LORD’s favor and the day of our God’s vengeance, to comfort all who mourn, / to console the mourners in Zion—to give them a crown of beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, and a garment of praise for a spirit of despair. So they will be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that He may be glorified.<span class="p"><br /><br /></span><span class="crossverse"><a href="/ezekiel/37-12.htm">Ezekiel 37:12-14</a></span><br />Therefore prophesy and tell them that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘O My people, I will open your graves and bring you up from them, and I will bring you back to the land of Israel. / Then you, My people, will know that I am the LORD, when I open your graves and bring you up from them. / I will put My Spirit in you and you will live, and I will settle you in your own land.

In the Hebrew context, "mountain" often symbolizes a place of divine revelation and encounter. Mount Zion, in particular, is seen as the spiritual center of God's kingdom, where His presence dwells. Historically, it is the site of Jerusalem, the city of David, and the location of the temple. This mountain represents a place of victory and divine intervention, where God will accomplish His purposes.<p><b>He will swallow up</b><br />The imagery of "He will swallow up" conveys a sense of total and complete action. The Hebrew root for "swallow" (bala) suggests an overwhelming consumption or destruction. This phrase indicates God's decisive power to eliminate what is being described. It is a promise of God's ultimate victory over the forces of evil and death, emphasizing His sovereignty and ability to bring about His redemptive plan.<p><b>the covering</b><br />The term "the covering" can be understood as a metaphor for the veil of sin, ignorance, or separation that lies over humanity. In ancient times, a covering or veil often symbolized something hidden or obscured. This covering represents the spiritual blindness and separation from God that sin causes. The removal of this covering signifies the revelation of God's truth and the restoration of a direct relationship with Him.<p><b>that covers all peoples</b><br />The phrase "that covers all peoples" highlights the universal scope of God's redemptive work. It underscores the inclusivity of God's salvation plan, which is not limited to a single nation or group but extends to all humanity. This reflects the biblical theme of God's desire for all people to come to the knowledge of the truth and be saved, as seen throughout both the Old and New Testaments.<p><b>the veil</b><br />"The veil" is another metaphor for separation and obscurity. In the context of the temple, a veil separated the Holy of Holies from the rest of the temple, symbolizing the barrier between God and humanity due to sin. The removal of this veil signifies the breaking down of barriers and the opening of access to God's presence. It points to the New Testament fulfillment in Christ, who, through His sacrifice, tore the veil and granted believers direct access to God.<p><b>that is spread over all nations</b><br />This phrase reiterates the global impact of the covering and veil. "Spread over all nations" emphasizes the pervasive nature of sin and separation from God, affecting every nation and people group. It also highlights the comprehensive nature of God's salvation, which is intended for all nations. This aligns with the Great Commission, where Jesus commands His followers to make disciples of all nations, reflecting God's heart for global redemption and reconciliation.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/ellicott/isaiah/25.htm">Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers</a></div>(7) <span class= "bld">The face of the covering</span> <span class= "bld">cast over all people . . .</span>--To cover the face was, in the East, a sign of mourning for the dead (<a href="/2_samuel/19-4.htm" title="But the king covered his face, and the king cried with a loud voice, O my son Absalom, O Absalom, my son, my son!">2Samuel 19:4</a>); and to destroy that covering is to overcome death, of which it is thus the symbol. With this there probably mingled another, though kindred, thought. The man whose face is thus covered cannot see the light, and the "covering" represents the veil (<a href="/2_corinthians/3-15.htm" title="But even to this day, when Moses is read, the veil is on their heart.">2Corinthians 3:15</a>) which hinders men from knowing God. The final victory of God includes a triumph over ignorance and sorrow, as well as over sin and death.<p><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/isaiah/25.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div><span class="cmt_sub_title">Verse 7.</span> - <span class="cmt_word">He will destroy... the face of the covering</span>. According to some, the "covering cast ever all people" is death, and the second clause of the verse is a mere repetition of the first. But, though the heads of criminals were covered when they were led to execution (<a href="/esther/7-8.htm">Esther 7:8</a>), yet death itself is never elsewhere called a "covering." May not the prophet have in view that "veil" or "covering" of misconception and prejudice, whereof St. Paul speaks as lying "on the hearts of the Jewish nation," and preventing them from discerning the true sense of Scripture (<a href="/2_corinthians/3-15.htm">2 Corinthians 3:15</a>)? Certainly one of the great curses of humanity while here is its inability to see things as they really are - its colored, distorted, prejudiced, views of life and death, of this world and the next, of self-interest, duty, happiness. This "veil" is certainly to be done away; for "now we see through a glass darkly, but then face to face; now we know in part, but then shall we know even as we are known" (<a href="/2_corinthians/13-12.htm">2 Corinthians 13:12</a>). <span class="p"><br /><br /></span><span class="versiontext"><a href="/commentaries/isaiah/25-7.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a></span><span class="p"><br /><br /><br /></span><a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div><span class="word">On this</span><br /><span class="heb">הַזֶּ֔ה</span> <span class="translit">(haz·zeh)</span><br /><span class="parse">Article | Pronoun -
