Context of Isaiah 66:22

20They will bring all your relatives from every nation like a grain offering to the Lord. “They will come on horses, in chariots, in wagons, on mules and camels to my holy mountain, Jerusalem,” declares the Lord. They will come like the people of Israel who bring their grain offerings in clean dishes to the Lord’s temple. 21“I will make some of them priests and Levites,” declares the Lord. “The new heaven and earth that I am about to make will continue in my presence,” declares the Lord. “So your descendants and your name will also continue in my presence. 23From one month to the next and from one week to the next all people will come to worship me,” declares the Lord. 24Then they will go out and look at the corpses of those who have rebelled against me. The worms that eat them will not die. The fire that burns them will not go out. All humanity will be disgusted by them.
