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?
Isa. 66:1. "The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool." The mercy-seat in the Temple is no longer God's throne; but heaven and the ark and temple are no longer God's footstool, as they used to be called. 1 Chronicles 28:2; Psalms 99:5; Psalms 132:7; Psalms 132:8; Lamentations 2:21, and Isaiah 60:13. The glorious times shall come wherein the whole habitable world shall be blessed with as honorable tokens of God's presence, not only as the Land of Canaan, but as the Temple; yea, as the holy of holies and the ark that had God's glory upon it. See Jeremiah 3:16; Jeremiah 3:17; Isaiah 60:2; Isaiah 2:5; Isaiah 2:6; Revelation 21:23; Revelation 21:24; also compare Haggai 2:7, and Isaiah 6:1; Isaiah 6:3.
