We learn from today's verse just how extraordinary the prophets of Israel
were in their complete faith that God would restore Zion. Isaiah goes so far as
to name his children with
names of hope and promise, as signs that the redemption will come! It is these
two qualities of faith and hope that are the companions of a soldier on the
battlefield. Armed with belief, the soldier can carry on knowing that the cause
of peace and freedom is worth his effort. The IDF stands with America this
coming U.S. Memorial Day, honoring all those who lost their lives while
defending peace and freedom for ALL people.
