Isaiah 11:1-10 The Shoot of Jesse

Jeff Hendrix on Isaiah 11:1-10: In Isaiah's vision of the shoot coming up from the stump of Jesse, we see a vision of what God can do when he sets to work on the reconciliation of the world. We get a view of the shoot, the spirit that rests upon him, and what the redeemed world looks like. Jesus was recognized as that shoot in the post-resurrection world. What does that mean for us today?
