Isaiah 30:1 condemns the Jews for seeking forgiveness their own way rather than by the gift of God's Spirit: they " cover with a covering (atonement), but not of my Spirit, that they may add (rather than subtract) sin to sin". Is.44:3 describes the latter day forgiveness of Israel in similar terms: "I will pour...floods upon the dry ground (spiritually barren -Is.53:2): I will pour My Spirit upon thy seed, and my blessing upon thine offspring". The blessing of Abraham's seed is in their forgiveness through Christ (Acts 3:25,26) - which is here paralleled with the pouring out of the spirit upon the Jews. This is clearly the language of Joel 2 and Acts 2. Gal.3:4 puts all this in so many words: "That the blessing of Abraham (forgiveness) might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit".
Kwa maana yeye ndiye amani yetu …..akaja akahubiri amani kwenu ninyi mliokuwa mbali" Isaya 30:1 unawalaumu Wayahudi kwa kuutafuta msamaha kwa njia yao wenyewe kuliko toka kipawa cha Roho ya Mungu:'Wajifunikao kwa kifuniko (upatananisho) lakini si cha Roho yangu, wapate kuongeza (Badala ya kutoa) dhambi juu ya dhambi" Isaya 44:3 unaeleza msamaha wa siku hizi kwa Israeli kwa maneno haya: "Kwa maana nitamimina maji …… na vijito vya maji juu ya mahali pakavu (ukavu kiroho - Isa. 53:2): nitamwaga Roho yangu juu ya wazao wako, na baraka yangu juu yao utakaowazaa" Baraka ya uzao wa Ibrahimu ni kwa kusamehewa kwao kwa njia ya Kristo (Mdo. 3: 25, 26) msamaha uliopo hapa ni sawa na kumwagiwa Roho juu ya Wayahudi.Huu msemo wazi wa Yoeli 2, na matendo 2.
