Isaiah says in summary “liturgical ritual without works is dead” because we render the meaningful worship of God meaningless and even sinful when we do not love our neighbor.
He has given us more than a surprise Gospel in our text. He has given us everything we need for life and salvation in Him.
He will safely birth us from this world, which is like a womb, into Heaven itself. On that day we will truly see the creation as it was made to be, restored and perfect in eternity forever.
The people Christ identifies with Himself, and the object of His mercy are the people who are hungry, thirsty, naked, and a stranger. The sick and the imprisoned are there as well.
He who died in darkness for our sins has been resurrected for our life and salvation forever.
Instead of thinking you must become this state in order to be blessed, this emphasis teaches is that wherever you find people in this low estate there you find God.
