The MessengerThe verse speaks of a messenger who brings good news. In the context of Isaiah, this messenger is a herald of God's salvation and peace. 2. Mountains Symbolic of the places where the messenger travels to bring the good news. Mountains often represent obstacles or challenges that are overcome to deliver God's message. 3. Zion Represents Jerusalem and, by extension, the people of God. Zion is the recipient of the good news and the proclamation of God's reign. 4. God The ultimate source of the good news, peace, and salvation. The verse emphasizes God's sovereignty and His active role in the redemption of His people. 5. The Good News Refers to the message of peace, salvation, and God's reign. In the New Testament, this is often associated with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Teaching Points The Beauty of the Gospel MessageThe message of salvation and peace is inherently beautiful because it reflects God's love and sovereignty. As believers, we should cherish and uphold the beauty of the Gospel in our lives. The Role of the Messenger Every Christian is called to be a messenger of the Gospel. We should be willing to overcome obstacles, like the mountains, to share the good news with others. Proclaiming God's Reign The declaration "Your God reigns!" is central to the message. We should live in a way that reflects God's sovereignty and share this truth with others. Peace and Salvation The Gospel brings peace and salvation, not just in a spiritual sense but also in our daily lives. We should seek to embody and share this peace with those around us. The Urgency of the Message Just as the messenger in Isaiah 52:7 is eager to deliver the good news, we should have a sense of urgency in sharing the Gospel, recognizing its life-changing power.(7) How beautiful . . .--The image is reproduced, with variations, from Isaiah 40:9. There Zion herself was the herald proclaiming the glad tidings; here the heralds are seen coming to Zion, to tell her that her God is verily reigning, and their feet are beautiful on the mountains like those of an antelope (Song of Solomon 2:8-9; Nahum 1:15).Verses 7-12. - A VISION OF THE DAY OF DELIVERANCE. 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. Nahum 1:15, 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 Romans 10:15. 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 (1 Samuel 12:12) 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. Parallel Commentaries ...
