The Blessings of the Gospel

This passage looks ahead to the time when Christ, the promised Savior, would come. When Jesus brings His kingdom, amazing things will happen. Both physical and spiritual miracles will show that God is at work, bringing hope and new life to people everywhere.

v. 5: When God comes, He will do miracles. Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped. Jesus did these very things when He was on earth, healing people who could not see or hear (Matthew 9:27; Mark 7:34 ^a). These miracles proved that He was truly sent by God (John 3:2 ^b).

v. 6: Even more, those who could not walk will leap, and those who could not speak will sing for joy. Then shall the lame man leap as an hart, and the tongue of the dumb sing. When Jesus healed people, they were so happy they could not help but rejoice (Acts 3:8 ^c). This also points to the spiritual miracles Jesus does—He gives new life to those who are spiritually weak or silent.
