In Isaiah 66:20, it reads: "And they shall bring all our brothers from all the nations as an offering to the LORD, on horses and in chariots and in litters and on mules and on dromedaries, to my holy mountain Jerusalem, says the LORD, just as the Israelites bring their grain offering in a clean vessel to the house of the LORD."
To what is Isaiah referring when he talks about "horses, chariots, litters, etc..."? I recently heard one preacher who argued that this text is referring to the many different ways in which people would be brought to Christ. His application then was to use whatever means possible to bring people to the gospel. This interpretation has obvious theological problems, but I'm wondering how to properly interpret these phrases. Thanks!
