Isaiah 58

Isaiah 58 Commentary
* The Way of the nation or people of God is righteousness
* We are being told how you loose the bands of wickedness that ye break every yoke? This is why living by charity was so important to Abraham, Moses, John the Baptist and Jesus. See Corban, Pure Religion, Daily ministration. The Benefactors who exercise authority and the Fathers of the earth are the antitheses of what Christ taught.
So TzadikVavMem which is the Hebrew word for fasting may divide you from one realm and draws you to another.
The kind of fasting you do will determine the direction between realms you move.
To loose the bands of wickedness or dissolve the bands which have connected you to another you must set others free. What brings a man into bondage is covetous practices so it is charity that set him free.
What is Religion and do you have Pure religion?
Do you pray for the daily ministration of Christ or the Corban of the world?

[[1]] ¶ Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and shew my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins. 2 Yet they seek me daily, and delight to know my ways, as a nation that did righteousness, and forsook not the ordinance of their God: they ask of me the ordinances of justice; they take delight in approaching to God.

3 ¶ Wherefore have we fasted, say they, and thou seest not? wherefore have we afflicted our soul, and thou takest no knowledge? Behold, in the day of your fast ye find pleasure, and exact all your labours. 4 Behold, ye fast for strife and debate, and to smite with the fist of wickedness: ye shall not fast as ye do this day, to make your voice to be heard on high. 5 Is it such a fast that I have chosen? a day for a man to afflict his soul? is it to bow down his head as a bulrush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes under him? wilt thou call this a fast, and an acceptable day to the LORD? 6 Is not this the fast^[1] that I have chosen^[2]? to loose the bands of wickedness^[3], to undo the heavy^[4] burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke^[4]? 7 Is it not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor that are cast out to thy house? when thou seest the naked, that thou cover him; and that thou hide not thyself from thine own flesh?

8 ¶ Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of the LORD shall be thy reward. 9 Then shalt thou call, and the LORD shall answer; thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am. If thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke^[4], the putting forth of the finger, and speaking vanity; 10 And if thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall thy light rise in obscurity, and thy darkness be as the noonday: 11 And the LORD shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not. 12 And they that shall be of thee shall build the old waste places: thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called, The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in.
