I really enjoyed this reflection today, and thanks for leading me to the Isaiah reading. I have not looked so deeply at all the events that take place on mountains, but there must be some significance to this. God Bless.

Thank you! I was blown away when I first saw just how much of Scripture takes place on a mountain, especially in the liturgical/sacrificial sense. One of the best books I've read surrounding that subject is: The House of the Lord- A Catholic Biblical Theology of God's Temple Presence in the Old and New Testaments by Stephen C. Smith. It was a really excellent read.

Thank you. I missed this entirely. I was wondering what, exactly, the prophecy (of Isaiah) is referring to. Parts of seemed to line up with Jesus' earthly ministry; and other parts I could not see.

You clearly show that it is Jesus, in His earthly ministry, that this prophecy refers to. Thanks! I need to read it again through those eyes.
