The Rescue of a Remnant
Following the Return of the Messiah, Isaiah proceeds to tell us that Jehovah (for a 2nd Time) will rescue a remnant of his people that will be left remaining over AFTER the destruction of Israel and the Assyrian.
This remnant will return from Assyria, Egypt, Pathros, Cush, Elam, Shinar (Babylon/Iraq), Hamath, and from all the Islands of the sea. Jehovah will gather all the banished ones of Israel. Note, this return is from all over the Middle East primarily (Isaiah 56:8, Zephaniah 3:10 and Zechariah 10:6).
Dispersed of Israel and Judah Will Become One Under One King
Jehovah will also gather all the dispersed ones of Judah from the 4 corners of the Earth (see Matthew 24:30-31). He will free the remnant from all foreign oppression and evil, and THEN they will become the most powerful and political force in all the earth (Jeremiah 48:40, 49:22, 28, Habakkuk 1:8, Isaiah 9:12, 16:14, 25:10, 63:1, Daniel 11:41, Joel 3:19 and Amos 9:12).
The River of Egypt Will Be Dried Up
The Tongue of Egypt will be dried up so that the Remnant of God can walk back to Israel on dry land (Isaiah 7:20, 19:16, 43:16, 44:27, 50:2, 51:10-11, and Revelation 16:12).
A Highway Between Assyria and Israel
There will also be a Highway from Assyria back to Israel for the Remnant to walk back to Israel. Assyria, Egypt and Israel will be one in the Kingdom of God, they will be his saved people, the people that his heart and hands yearn for (Isaiah 11:11, 19:23, 35:8, 40:3, 62.10 and Exodus 14:26-29).
This Will Happen at End of Coming 4th Beast/Iron Legged Kingdom
This will happen at the tail end of the coming 4th and Final Beast/Iron Legged Kingdom that will be divided between Assyria and Egypt. It will happen AFTER both Israel and the Assyrian have both been destroyed, and AFTER the Messiahs return.
