He Makes All Things New

The concept of biblical restoration begins with the Law. As an example, read Exodus 22. The first several verses deal with restoring something stolen, and the making of restitution. If the Law calls for restitution that replaces with more than what was lost, it is logical to assume that the Lord who authored that law would do the same! This is exactly what you read in your study of His restoration of the temple: He said that the glory of the latter house would be greater than the former. When He restores, He does something that makes the restored of higher quality than what was lost. In Zechariah 4:10, did you notice that the prophecy appears to rebuke the people for thinking that the rebuilt walls were to be despised as small? The goal of this chapter is to provoke your thinking by reviewing some of the historical illustrations of God’s willingness to restore, and His methods to accomplish restoration. Amen 
Read Job 42:10–12; Isaiah 42:22.
