Isaiah 2 just caught my attention as it speaks of the "last days" or the "messianic age", a time of universal peace and Father's ultimate reign over all nations.
Verses 2-3 reads:
"It shall come to pass in the latter days that the mountain of the Lord’s house shall be established as the highest of the mountains and shall be exalted above the hills, and all nations shall flow to it.
And many people shall come and say, Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob, that He may teach us His ways and that we may walk in His paths. For out of Zion shall go forth the law and instruction, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem."
But, how does this fit in with the New Covenant if the nations again has to go up to the Mountain to be taught? Isn't the law already written on everyone's heart?
I can understand going there for judgement to be made between people, but being taught again about the law? 🤔
Or does this talk of a different period in time?
How do you understand this chapter in relation to the New Covenant?

speaking poetically, in the landscape of our hearts the mountains we ascend to worship what the houses on top contain for us are reflections of what we idolize.
and now, in those last days, the real mountain gets established in the landscape of our hearts,
and from this 'new' house on this 'new' mountain will go forth the Law and instruction, and the Word.
and all that we built up in our hearts before, which we relied on (for our salvation), will be tossed down, shown for what it is.
as the last verse (22) says
- Put no more trust in man,
who has only the breath in his nostrils.
Of what account is he? -
that generic 'man' is me. how can i place trust in what's built up in the heart of the no-account person i am who has nothing, only the breathe in my nostrils?
and even that is not mine.
if i may, do understand that what we hold dear in our hearts (and think is in line with what is in the House of YHWH) is exactly the content of those houses with towers and fortified walls on those multiple mountains in the current landscape of our hearts.
thinking that what you've built up is in line with what is in the House of YHWH is interfering with your receiving it.
you're now thinking you have more than just the breathe in your nostrils. (which is actually not even yours)
