No one will hurt or destroy anywhere in God's holy mountain because the earth will be filled with knowledge of the Lord as completely as the waters cover the sea. Isaiah connects peace with knowledge of God. Violence is not removed merely through stronger political control; it disappears because people have come to know and understand the Lord. The verse therefore presents spiritual transformation as the foundation for universal peace. God's presence and knowledge become widespread throughout the earth. The result is a world where destruction no longer dominates human relationships or creation.
History
Mount Zion / Jerusalem: God's holy mountain was closely associated with Jerusalem and the temple during the 1st millennium BC. Isaiah expands this local symbol into a worldwide vision of God's rule.
