from the Hebrew 'shiphchah' meaning 'to spread out as a family' (Strong's no.8198). Much land on this earth today is not inhabitable, but when this setting up takes place, there will be enough land for all to spread out on. There won't be any more overcrowded cities and such.

 

Isa 14:3   And it shall come to pass in the day that the LORD shall give thee rest from thy sorrow, and from thy fear, and from the hard bondage wherein thou wast made to serve,

     Christ now is our Sabbath, which means 'rest'.  But our LORD is not here with us yet, so we will not enter into that full 'Rest' until the 'gathering' back to Christ is accomplished. So when is this going to happen?  In 'that day', the Lord's Day', then it'll be a wonderful habitation.

Isa 14:4   That thou shalt take up this proverb against the king of Babylon, and say, "How hath the oppressor ceased! the golden city ceased!

Isa 14:5  The LORD hath broken the staff of the wicked, and the sceptre of the rulers.

     So what's a 'proverb'? It's an ethical saying containing wisdom, a poem or maxim. This 'proverb' is against the 'king of Babylon', and for us in today's time, it is Satan and his 'beast' kingdom called again, Babylon. This 'proverb' against Satan; the 'wicked one' and his false kingdom covers all the way to verse 21 of this Chapter 14 (note the later end quote). When this cherub Lucifer and his false 'beast' system are defeated, we'll be saying, "How great the overthrow of the false one and his kingdom was by Christ! Lucifer caused the first overthrow 'of old' ('katabole' from 'kataballo' in the Greek), but that time can't compare with God's overthrow of him and his wicked system!"

 

Isa 14:6   He who smote the people in wrath with a continual stroke, he that ruled the nations in anger, is persecuted, and none hindereth.

     This 'He' is Satan.  Most people just don't get the 'big picture' when they see potentially good leaders making unethical laws and decisions.  They need to re-read...

 

 Luke 4:5-8: And Jesus answered him saying, “It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.”

5 And the devil, taking Him up into an high mountain, shewed unto Him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.

6 And the devil said unto Him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will give it.

7 If thou therefore will worship me, all shall be Thine.

8 And Jesus answered and said unto him, “Get thee behind Me Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and Him only shalt thou serve.

 

...Where Satan declares that the kingdoms of the world are given to him during this flesh age.
     If one is just seeing the negative political side of God's Plan, and not understanding what our Father would have us do by understanding His Word, then you put yourself in a position to be deceived later. Now this does not just mean we can take the law into our own hands as individuals either.  We are to follow civil law...

 

 Romans 13; 1, Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: The powers that be are ordained of God.
