Isaiah 54:7
For a small moment have I forsaken
thee; but with great mercies will I gather thee.
8
In a little wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting
kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith the LORD
thy Redeemer.
If so, then is the "everlasting kindness"
referring to enduring kindness toward Israel, long past
the thousand year kingdom?
Could that also be related to the "thousand
generations"?
Deuteronomy
7:9 Know therefore that the LORD thy God,
he is God, the faithful God, which
keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him
and keep his commandments to a thousand
generations;
I
Chronicles 16:15 Be ye mindful always of
his covenant; the word which he
commanded to a thousand
generations;
Psalms
105:8 He hath remembered his covenant
for ever, the word which he
commanded to a thousand
generations.
Is this saying that in the future, someone
would still be considered an infant at a hundred years
old?
Isaiah
65:20 There shall be no more thence an
infant of days, nor an old man that hath not filled
his days: for the child shall die an hundred
years old; but the sinner being
an hundred years old shall be
accursed.
At some point, will the lifespan of a person
be like the lifespan of a tree?
Isaiah
65:22 They shall not build, and another
inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a
tree are the days of my
people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the
work of their hands.
Do not sequoias live over 2,000 years?
If so, then, is this question, that Solomon
asked, more than hypothetical?
Ecclesiastes
6:6 Yea, though he live a thousand years
twice told, yet hath he seen no
good: do not all go to one place?
Was Abraham the 20th generation?
I
Chronicles 1:1 Adam, Sheth, Enosh,
2
Kenan, Mahalaleel, Jered,
3
Henoch, Methuselah, Lamech,
4
Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
24
Shem, Arphaxad, Shelah,
25
Eber, Peleg, Reu,
26
Serug, Nahor, Terah,
27
Abram; the same is Abraham.
Then wasn't it 42 more generations to Jesus?
Matthew
1:17 So all the generations from Abraham to
David are fourteen generations; and
from David until the carrying away into Babylon are fourteen generations; and from
the carrying away into Babylon unto Christ are fourteen generations.
Then, is a generation is forty years?
If so, wouldn't then there have been about
50 generations from the time of Jesus until now?
Or even if a generation is considered only
20 years, from the birth of one generation to the birth
of the next, wouldn't that make 100 generations?
If so, then wouldn't that mean about 162
generations from creation until now?
Then, will generations be longer in the
thousand year kingdom?
Then, if generations are about a fourth of a
lifespan apart (20 out of 80 years), and if lifespans
will be like 2,000 years, will generations be like 200
years apart?
If so, then how long will a thousand
generations take?
