“And an highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but it shall be for those: the wayfaring men, though fools, shall not err therein.”
The reference to a highway being there, which will be called the Way of Holiness, with unclean persons unable to pass along it, indicates that the restoration will involve the establishment of a path of pilgrimage to the sacred center. This verse emphasizes that the renewal involves the creation of structures for the expression of holiness and the approach to God. The reference to unclean persons being unable to pass indicates that the restoration will maintain the boundary between the holy and the unholy. The verse establishes that the restoration involves not merely material renewal but spiritual consecration.
