| Summary: | The author reflects on the biblical passage Isaiah 49:8-16a for May 25, 2008, which focuses on a prophecy about the return of Israelites from Babylon to Zion, the devastated city of Jerusalem. He notes that the passage opens with an assurance of the active interest of God in an individual. He cites that forsakenness is indicated in the broken and uninhabited state of Zion. He mentions that the final promise of God to Israelites is best interpreted as a demonstration that God has plans for his people. |
