The wilderness and the solitary place shall be glad for them; and the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the rose. It shall blossom abundantly, and rejoice even with joy
and singing: the glory of Lebanon shall be given unto it, the excellency of Carmel and Sharon, they shall see the Glory of the Lord, and the excellency of our God.   
                 -- Isaiah 35:1-2

And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the Lord's house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it.  And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.  And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.  -- Isaiah 2:2-4

"And he that saith in 'Akka: 'Glorified be God, and praise be unto God, and there is no other God but God, and most great is God, and there is no power nor strength except in God, the Exalted, the Mighty,' God will write down for him a thousand good deeds, and blot out from him a thousand evil deeds."      -- Baha'u'llah

Baha'u'llah's route in exile and its relationship to 
Biblical prophecy:       

      In that day also he shall come even to thee from Assyria (Persia), and from the fortified cities (Tehran), and from the fortress (The Black Pit) even to the river (Baghdad - Tigris & Euphrates), and from sea to sea (the Caspian Sea & the Mediterranean Sea), and from mountain to mountain (Constantinople & Adrianople).  Notwithstanding the land shall be desolate ('Akka) because of them that dwell therein, for the fruit of their doings (imprisoning the Blessed Beauty, Baha'u'llah).  -- Micah 7:12-13
