Branch Of My Planting

Isaiah 60:21 (ESV)

Your people shall all be righteous;

they shall possess the land forever,

the branch of my planting, the work of my hands,

that I might be glorified.

God planted Adam in the Garden of Eden to work the ground to bring and multiply His light into all the earth. Adam foreshadowed Israel who was planted in the promised land to work the ground to bring and multiply His light into all the world. 

Israel becomes the root of the tree of life, planted in the promised land producing the Branch of Jessie in whom the people of the earth might become grafted branches in the tree of life. This is the work of the hands of the Lord. Jesus is the strong arm of God who is the tree of life. The Father is glorified in the Son, the Son is glorified by the Father, and we are glorified in the Son. The tent of meeting between God and man is replaced by the union of heaven and earth that is the new creation of man. This is the true and living temple of creation.
