\u201cHis resting place shall be glorious\u201d means that the place of the Messiah\u2019s reign and dwelling will become the center of God\u2019s manifested presence, peace, and majesty.<\/strong> The prophet Isaiah speaks not merely about the absence of war, but about the glorious kingdom of God, to which people from all nations will gather.<\/em><\/p>\n

Who is called the Root of Jesse?<\/h2>\n

Jesse was the father of King David. God promised David that his descendant would reign forever. In Isaiah chapter 11, this future King is called both a \u201cBranch\u201d from the root of Jesse and the \u201cRoot of Jesse.\u201d He comes from David\u2019s line as a man, yet at the same time He is greater than David, for in Him is the source of life, hope, and salvation.<\/p>\n

Christians see in this prophecy Jesus Christ. He is the promised Messiah, who was born in David\u2019s line and became a \u201cbanner\u201d \u2014 a visible sign of God\u2019s salvation for all nations.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd in that day there shall be a Root of Jesse, who shall stand as a banner to the people; for the Gentiles shall seek Him, and His resting place shall be glorious.\u201d Isa 11:10<\/a><\/cite><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The apostle Paul directly applies these words to Christ\u2019s ministry and the acceptance of the Gentiles into God\u2019s people. Therefore, the prophecy is not limited to ancient Israel: Jesus calls to Himself people of every nation, language, and background.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd again, Isaiah says: \u2018There shall be a root of Jesse; and He who shall rise to reign over the Gentiles, in Him the Gentiles shall hope.\u2019\u201d Rom 15:12<\/a><\/cite><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

What does the word \u201crest\u201d mean?<\/h2>\n

In this verse, the word \u201crest\u201d has a broader meaning than simply silence after work or the absence of anxiety. It can mean a resting place, a dwelling, the place where the King abides. Therefore, the expression can be rendered as: \u201cHis dwelling shall be glorious\u201d or \u201cthe place of His presence shall be filled with glory.\u201d<\/p>\n

For the biblical person, God\u2019s glory is not only beauty or solemnity. It is the real presence of God, His holiness, love, power, and salvation. Where Christ is present as King, the consequences of sin are undone: hostility, violence, fear, and death. His \u201crest\u201d is glorious because in it God\u2019s character is fully revealed.<\/p>\n

Isaiah describes this future world in the language of reconciled creation. It is a picture not of a human political utopia, but of God\u2019s restoration.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey shall not hurt nor destroy in all My holy mountain, for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.\u201d Isa 11:9<\/a><\/cite><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Christ\u2019s rest is peace founded on righteousness<\/h2>\n

Biblical peace, or shalom, is the wholeness of life under God\u2019s rule. It does not mean that God simply overlooks evil. On the contrary, the Messiah judges righteously, defends the weak, and exposes falsehood. That is why His peace is firm and glorious.<\/p>\n

At the beginning of the chapter, Isaiah says that the Spirit of the Lord will rest upon the Messiah, and that His rule will be marked by righteousness and faithfulness.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe shall judge the poor with righteousness, and decide with equity for the meek of the earth… Righteousness shall be the belt of His loins, and faithfulness the belt of His waist.\u201d Isa 11:4-5<\/a><\/cite><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Therefore, \u201cHis resting place shall be glorious\u201d does not promise an escape from reality. It is the promise of a world cleansed by God\u2019s truth. Christ brings peace through victory over sin. In His sacrifice, He reconciles believers to God, and in the future He will finally restore all creation.<\/p>\n

Already now and in fullness at the Second Coming<\/h2>\n

The prophecy has both a present and a future dimension. Even today, people from different nations come to Christ by faith. In Him they find forgiveness, reconciliation with God, and inner peace. Jesus assured His disciples that He gives a kind of peace different from what the world offers.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.\u201d John 14:27<\/a><\/cite><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

However, the full picture of Isaiah 11 still lies ahead. From the Adventist understanding, it will be finally fulfilled after Christ\u2019s return and the restoration of the earth. Then God\u2019s glory will fill the new creation, and sin, suffering, and death will have no place anymore.<\/p>\n

Ellen White also emphasized that God\u2019s plan of salvation will conclude with the full restoration of what was lost through sin. The eternal home of the redeemed will not be a bleak wasteland, but a glorious place of God\u2019s presence.<\/p>\n

Hope for our life<\/h2>\n

Therefore, the words \u201cHis resting place shall be glorious\u201d mean this: Christ\u2019s kingdom, His dwelling, and His rule will be filled with God\u2019s presence, peace, and beauty. The nations come to Him as their Savior, and in Him they find a true home.<\/p>\n

The practical application is simple: when anxiety, conflict, or uncertainty rob us of peace, we should turn again to Christ, the \u201cbanner for the peoples.\u201d Ask Him to dwell in your heart, be reconciled to God through prayer, build peace in your family and church, and live with hope in His soon coming. Where Christ has authority, His rest already begins to reveal God\u2019s glory.<\/p>","protected":false},"template":"","meta":{"faq_question":"\u0429\u043e \u043e\u0437\u043d\u0430\u0447\u0430\u044e\u0442\u044c \u0441\u043b\u043e\u0432\u0430 \u00ab\u043f\u043e\u043a\u0456\u0439 \u0419\u043e\u0433\u043e \u0431\u0443\u0434\u0435 \u0441\u043b\u0430\u0432\u0430\u00bb \u0432 \u0406\u0441\u0430\u0457 11:10?","bible_refs":"Isaiah 11:10, Romans 15:12, Isaiah 11:9, Isaiah 11:4-5, John 14:27","answer_lang":"uk","source_question":"# \u0418\u0441\u0430\u0438\u044f 11:10\n\u00b9\u2070 \u0418\u00a0\u0431\u0443\u0434\u0435\u0442 \u0432\u00a0\u0442\u043e\u0442 \u0434\u0435\u043d\u044c: \u043a\u00a0\u043a\u043e\u0440\u043d\u044e \u0418\u0435\u0441\u0441\u0435\u0435\u0432\u0443, \u043a\u043e\u0442\u043e\u0440\u044b\u0439 \u0441\u0442\u0430\u043d\u0435\u0442 \u043a\u0430\u043a \u0437\u043d\u0430\u043c\u044f \u0434\u043b\u044f \u043d\u0430\u0440\u043e\u0434\u043e\u0432, \u043e\u0431\u0440\u0430\u0442\u044f\u0442\u0441\u044f \u044f\u0437\u044b\u0447\u043d\u0438\u043a\u0438, \u2014 \u0438\u00a0\u043f\u043e\u043a\u043e\u0439 \u0435\u0433\u043e \u0431\u0443\u0434\u0435\u0442 \u0441\u043b\u0430\u0432\u0430\n\u0447\u0442\u043e \u0437\u043d\u0430\u0447\u0438\u0442 \u043f\u043e\u043a\u043e\u0439 \u0441\u043b\u0430\u0432\u0430?"},"answer_topic":[172],"class_list":["post-9615","answers","type-answers","status-publish","hentry","answer_topic-prophecy-2"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/advent-ug.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/answers\/9615","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/advent-ug.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/answers"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/advent-ug.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/answers"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/advent-ug.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9615"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"answer_topic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/advent-ug.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/answer_topic?post=9615"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
