9 And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains: and mine elect shall inherit it, and my servants shall dwell there (Isaiah 65:9).
As we have seen that Isaiah is full of messianic prophecies. Christ was to be a descendent of Jacob and Judah. There are some key words and themes from this verse, as well: elect, inherit, and servants. God chooses His servants. We are not chosen by merit, rather we are chosen by grace. This is the essence of the Gospel-that God acts towards as a gracious gift.
