God’s people had undergone great suffering at the hands of Israel’s unrighteous kings. They had experienced God’s judgment as a result of their leader’s errors.
GOD’S PROMISE TO RESTORE
Thus, God’s promise brought great hope to them “I will restore your judges as at the first, and your counselors as at the beginning, after that you will be called the city of righteousness, a faithful city” [Isa 1:26]
To a people, who for centuries had known only leadership with a partial anointing, this was a promise of glorious restoration. God promised to give them leaders again who would rule with the same anointing as their first Judges – men like Moses, Joshua and Samuel.
This recurrent theme was often in Isaiah’s message: “behold, a king will reign righteously, and princes will rule justly. And they will be like a refuge from the wind, and a shelter from the storm, like streams of water in a dry country, like the shade of a huge rock in a parched land” [Isa 32:1-2]
