Yahweh Saves His People & They Celebrate (11:11–12:6) Yahweh’s global salvation through a second-exodus (11:11–16) The declaration of a second exodus (11:11) Luke 9:31. And behold, two men were talking with [Jesus], Moses and Elijah, 31 who appeared in glory and spoke of his departure [exodus], which he was about to accomplish at Jerusalem. 1 Cor 5:7. Christ, our Passover Lamb, has been sacrificed.

The process of a second exodus (11:12–16) Action 1: Yahweh moves to gather a remnant (11:12)––“peoples” vs. “people” in vv. 10–11 Result 1: The unity of new Israel and the exaltation of Judah as servant leader (11:13) Deut 17:18–20. And when he sits on the throne of his kingdom, he shall write for himself in a book a copy of this law, approved by the Levitical priests. 19 And it shall be with him, and he shall read in it all the days of his life, that he may learn to fear the LORD his God by keeping all the words of this law and these statutes, and doing them, 20 that his heart may not be lifted up above his brothers, and that he may not turn aside from the commandment, either to the right hand or to the left, so that he may continue long in his kingdom, he and his children, in Israel.

The process of a second exodus (11:12–16) Action 1: Yahweh moves to gather a remnant (11:12)––“peoples” vs. “people” in vv. 10–11 Result 1: The unity of new Israel and the exaltation of Judah as servant leader (11:13) The people’s overpowering of the enemy, the submission of some foreigners (11:13–14) Isa 49:22–23. Thus says the Lord GOD: “Behold, I will lift up my hand to the nations, and raise my signal to the peoples; and they shall bring your sons in their arms, and your daughters shall be carried on their shoulders. 23 Kings shall be your foster fathers, and their queens your nursing mothers. With their faces to the ground they shall bow down to you, and lick the dust of your feet. Then you will know that I am the LORD; those who wait for me shall not be put to shame.”

Zech 8:22–23. Many peoples and strong nations shall come to seek the LORD of hosts in Jerusalem and to entreat the favor of the LORD. 23 Thus says the LORD of hosts: In those days ten men from the nations of every tongue shall take hold of the robe of a Jew, saying, ‘Let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.’”

Amos 9:11–12. “In that day I will raise up the booth of David that is fallen and repair its breaches, and raise up its ruins and rebuild it as in the days of old, 12 that they may possess the remnant of Edom and all the nations who are called by my name,” declares the LORD who does this.` Acts 15:16–18. After this I will return, and I will rebuild the tent of David that has fallen; I will rebuild its ruins, and I will restore it, 17 that the remnant of mankind may seek the Lord, and all the Gentiles who are called by my name, says the Lord, who makes these things 18 known from of old.

Action 2: Yahweh’s defeat of the enemy and his leading his people home (11:15) “Wave his hand … with his scorching breath”: Exod 14:21–22. Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the LORD drove the sea back by a strong east wind all night and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided. 22 And the people of Israel went into the midst of the sea on dry ground, the waters being a wall to them on their right hand and on their left. Exod 15:8, 10. At the blast of his nostrils the waters piled up; the floods stood up in a heap; the deeps congealed in the heart of the sea…. 10 You blew with your wind; the sea covered them; they sank like lead in the mighty waters.

Result 2: A highway allowing a safe journey home (11:16)––God to us and us to him! Isa 35:8–10. And a highway shall be there, and it shall be called the Way of Holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it. It shall belong to those who walk on the way; even if they are fools, they shall not go astray. 9 No lion shall be there, nor shall any ravenous beast come up on it; they shall not be found there, but the redeemed shall walk there. 10 And the ransomed of the LORD shall return and come to Zion with singing; everlasting joy shall be upon their heads; they shall obtain gladness and joy, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.

Result 2: A highway allowing a safe journey home (11:16)––God to us and us to him! Isa 35:8–10. Isa 40:3. A voice cries: “In the wilderness prepare the way of the LORD; make straight in the desert a highway for our God.” Matt 3:1–3. In those days John the Baptist came preaching in the wilderness of Judea, 2 “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” 3 For this is he who was spoken of by the prophet Isaiah when he said, “The voice of one crying in the wilderness: ‘Prepare the way of the Lord; make his paths straight.’”

The inhabitants of Zion’s response to Yahweh’s salvation (12:1–6) The collective response of all (12:1–2) “You were angry” (5:24–25; 9:12, 17, 19, 21; 10:4, 5–6, 25) “Your anger turned away that you might comfort me” Isa 54:8. In overflowing anger for a moment I hid my face from you, but with everlasting love I will have compassion on you,” says the LORD, your Redeemer. God turns away his anger from the repentant (6:6– 7; 53:4–6) and purposes comfort (40:1; 66:13).

Rom 8:1. There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. Rom 5:8–11. But God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Since, therefore, we have now been justified by his blood, much more shall we be saved by him from the wrath to come. 10 For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, now that we are reconciled, shall we be saved by his life. 11 More than that, we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.

“God is my salvation” (45:17; cf. 51;6; 59:16; 63:5) Isa 45:17. But Israel is saved by the LORD with everlasting salvation; you shall not be put to shame or confounded to all eternity. Matt 1:21. She will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins. John 1:29. Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world! Reapplying old songs: Exod 15:2. The LORD is my strength and my song, and he has become my salvation; this is my God, and I will praise him, my father’s God, and I will exalt him.

Each individual’s response (12:3–6) “With joy” (12:3; cf. 29:19; 35:10; 51:3, 11; 55:12; 61:3, 7; 65:18–19) Isa 35:10.  And the ransomed of the LORD shall return and come to Zion with singing; everlasting joy shall be upon their heads; they shall obtain gladness and joy, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away. Isa 51:3.  For the LORD comforts Zion; he comforts all her waste places and makes her wilderness like Eden, her desert like the garden of the LORD; joy and gladness will be found in her, thanksgiving and the voice of song. Isa 65:18–19. But be glad and rejoice forever in that which I create; for behold, I create Jerusalem to be a joy, and her people to be a gladness. 19 I will rejoice in Jerusalem and be glad in my people; no more shall be heard in it the sound of weeping and the cry of distress.

“Draw water from the wells of salvation” (Isa 32:2; 35:6–7; 44:3; 55:1; John 4:13–14; 7:37–39; Rev 7:17; 21:6; 22:17) Isa 35:6–7. Then shall the lame man leap like a deer, and the tongue of the mute sing for joy. For waters break forth in the wilderness, and streams in the desert; 7 the burning sand shall become a pool, and the thirsty ground springs of water; in the haunt of jackals, where they lie down, the grass shall become reeds and rushes. Isa 44:3. For I will pour water on the thirsty land, and streams on the dry ground; I will pour my Spirit upon your offspring, and my blessing on your descendants.

John 4:13–15. Jesus said to her, “Everyone who drinks of this water will be thirsty again, 14 but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never be thirsty again. The water that I will give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.” Rev 22:17 (cf. Isa 55:1). And let the one who is thirsty come; let the one who desires take the water of life without price.

Calling for individual praise (12:4–5) Global proclamation of God’s greatness (12:4; cf. 2:1–4; 27:6; 37:20; 49:5–6; 52:10; 62:2; 66:18–24) Isa 27:6. In days to come Jacob shall take root, Israel shall blossom and put forth shoots and fill the whole world with fruit. Isa 49:6. It is too light a thing that you should be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob and to bring back the preserved of Israel; I will make you as a light for the nations, that my salvation may reach to the end of the earth. Isa 52:10. The LORD has bared his holy arm before the eyes of all the nations, and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God.

Calling for collective praise (12:6) Reapplying old songs: Exod 15:1. I will sing to the LORD, for he has triumphed gloriously; the horse and his rider he has thrown into the sea. Calling for collective praise (12:6)
