• God’s justice falls on Israel’s oppressors, yet His ultimate goal is worldwide recognition of His saving character.

Key themes: vengeance and salvation held together

• Scripture never pits these against each other; both flow from God’s holy love.

• Salvation extends mercy, deliverance, and covenant faithfulness.

• Isaiah 43:11—“I, even I, am the LORD, and there is no other savior.”

• Acts 4:12—No other name under heaven by which we must be saved.

• Revelation 7:10—A great multitude cries, “Salvation belongs to our God and to the Lamb.”

Key takeaway: salvation is universal in offer yet particular in Christ alone.

Justice and mercy meet at the cross

• Romans 3:25-26—God’s wrath against sin is satisfied in Jesus’ atoning blood, allowing Him to be both “just and the justifier.”

• Colossians 2:15—Christ disarms the powers, publicly triumphing over them—the ultimate act of holy vengeance that secures our rescue.

Putting it all together

• Isaiah 49:26 unites two strands: God judges oppressors and at the same time publicly reveals Himself as Redeemer.

• Every later passage amplifies one or both sides of that declaration.

• The cross stands as history’s clearest picture: wrath poured out, salvation poured forth.

Living in light of these truths

• Trust God’s timing—He will right every wrong.

• Rest in Christ’s finished work—your salvation is secure.

• Extend gospel hope to others—His aim is that “all flesh” would know Him.
