I am contemporizing it yet again, for you: first a sprig from a stump, then a righteous king ruling a peaceable kingdom, and finally the whole picture as it develops out of the life of God incarnate in Jesus: In that day the root of Jesse shall stand as an ensign to the peoples; him shall the nations seek, and his dwellings shall be glorious. (Isaiah 11:10) Eternity is revealed in time, meaning becomes explicit, and hope is fulfilled. Everyone sees it. Everyone responds to it. “Him shall the nations seek.”
