Isaiah 66:1 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

The heaven — The highest heaven, is the place where I shew myself in my majesty. So Psalms 11:4, Psalms 103:19; Matthew 5:34. Hence we are taught to pray; our father which art in heaven. And the earth is my footstool — Or a place wherein I set my feet, Matthew 5:35. The house — Can there be an house built, that will contain me? My rest — Or where is the place wherein I can be said to rest in a proper sense?

Isaiah 66:1

1 Thus saith the LORD, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: where is the house that ye build unto me? and where is the place of my rest?
