This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Even them - (Eph 2:11-13).

to my holy mountain - Jerusalem, the seat of the Lord’s throne in His coming kingdom (Isa 2:2; Jer 3:17).

joyful - (Rom 5:11).

burnt offerings ... sacrifices - spiritual, of which the literal were types (Rom 12:1; Heb 13:15; 1Pe 2:5).

accepted - (Eph 1:6).

altar - (Heb 13:10), spiritually, the Cross of Christ, which sanctifies our sacrifices of prayer and praise.

house ... for all people - or rather, “peoples.” No longer restricted to one favored people (Mal 1:11; Joh 4:21, Joh 4:23; 1Ti 2:8). To be fully realized at the second coming (Isa 2:2-4). No longer literal, but spiritual sacrifice, namely, “prayer” shall be offered (Psa 141:2; Psa 51:17; Mal 1:11; Mat 21:13).
