Isaiah, 11
Isaiah prophesies about a future time when a descendant of Jesse will rise to power as a righteous and just king. This king will be filled with the Spirit of the Lord, bringing peace and harmony to all of creation. The wolf will dwell with the lamb, the leopard with the kid, and the calf with the lion. Even the infant will be safe around poisonous snakes.

The Coming of the Righteous King
Commentary
Isaiah 11 is often regarded as one of the most beautiful and eloquent prophecies of the Messiah in the Old Testament. The chapter describes a world where predators and prey live in peace, where the lowly are lifted up and the proud are humbled. It's a vision of hope for a future kingdom where the Messiah reigns with righteousness and justice.Isaiah's prophecy is a reminder that God's kingdom is coming, and that we are called to be agents of that kingdom in the present. As followers of Christ, we are invited to work towards a world where peace and justice prevail, where the wolf and the lamb live together in harmony. May we live in anticipation of the coming of our Lord and Savior, and may we strive to bring a little bit of his kingdom to earth.
