Isaiah 32:2

Copyright Ó 2016 J. Neely
Isaiah 32:2

2 And a man ['iysh] shall be as an hiding place [machabe'] from the wind [ruwach], and a covert [cether] from the tempest [zerem]; as rivers [peleg] of water [mayim] in a dry place [tsiyown], as the shadow [tsel] of a great [kabed] rock [cela`] in a weary [`ayeph] land ['erets].   KJV-Interlinear

2 Each will be like a hiding place from the wind, a shelter from the storm, like streams of water in a dry place,
like the shade of a great rock in a weary land.  ESV

The man, is a reference to the King of the previous verse. A strong and wise leader, protects the rights and liberties and freedoms of the citizens, which establishes peace and prosperity, which ensures security, and therefore becomes a place of safety, or a realm of safety, as it were.

The hiding place is the environment of safety, that protects from the winds of destruction.

The covert, refers to a shelter, which protects from the storms that swirl around.

Rivers of water in the desert, or the shadow of the great rock during a bright and hot sunny day, all of these symbolize protection from the hardships and wariness and stresses of life.

And this is a good description of the millennial reign of Jesus Christ, wherein there will be peace and prosperity, and fairness and protection against all of the former things of history, which will be no more.





These studies are a part of the massive daily study web site at DailyBibeStudy.Org, and are written, so that you can come to Christ if you have not done so already, and therefore not be lost forever. 

And if you have already believed in Christ, then these studies are written so you can learn and understand and grow in your spiritual life, so that you can come to the full knowledge of Christ, so that you can fulfill your meaning and purpose in life as God intended for you, and so you can qualify for a phenomenal eternal reward which you will have forever. 

To ignore this opportunity to pursue a daily study means you will be incomplete, unfulfilled and you will lose out, big time.

The Daily Bible Study is online, making it possible as never before in all of human history, to advance in ones relationship with God, through Christ, and to complete yourself beyond your imagination.

But you have to decide to make that commitment.  No one else can study for you.  You have to do that yourself.
