"THE GOBLET, MY CUP OF RAGE". (Isaiah 51:22).

"Rouse yourself, rouse yourself, rise up, O Jerusalem, you who have drunk at the hand of Jehovah His cup of rage. The goblet, the cup causing reeling, you have drunk, you have drained out."  (Isaiah 51:17).

"THESE DAYS RECALL FOR ME THE DAYS OF NOAH". (54:9 NEB).
"The goblet, My cup of rage     you will not repeat the drinking of it anymore." "I will give it instead to your tormentors and oppressors…" (51:22,23 NWT & NEB). "These days" that recall for Jehovah the days of Noah (His promise never again to flood the earth with water) is His promise to faithful anointed sons of Zion that He will never again become indignant toward them or rebuke them. (54:9). What does this mean? That it was by the Spirit of His wrath that the denunciations of the "Little Scroll" were compiled. (Rev 10:8-11).  We are watching for the time appointed by Jehovah for the ending of His wrath, as promised through anointed members of the heavenly "woman" (54:9,10 & 51:21,22), as he puts the Spirit of His wrath into the hands of those tormenting and oppressing us. (51:23 NEB).  I, as an anointed member of the heavenly "woman" of God, have been used to declare knowledge of the wrath of Jehovah "the One that is speaking". It is not only what offends Him that we wish brought to an end, but also His appointed wrath, that "something better" may then be published: "Your God has become King!"  (52:6,7).

"MY NAME WAS BEING TREATED WITH DISRESPECT". (52:5).
As soon as knowledge of their disrespect for Jehovah's Name was revealed to them, apostates occupying the spiritual "land" of Zion* sold His faithful anointed sons into worldly "Egypt" for nothing. (52:4).  But from these "devastated places" they will be repurchased. (52:3 & 9). The extent of this disrespect for His Name is clearly revealed by the testimony of the "Little Scroll" by Spirit. "But on that day My people shall know My Name; they shall know that it is I who speak; here I am." (52:6 NEB). Amen, Father.

WITH HIS "SIGNAL" (49:22)  NEWS OF "SOMETHING BETTER" (52:7).
With His Signal Jehovah shall bare "His holy arm before the eyes of all the nations" (52:10), which with reference to Egypt, Ethiopia, Lebanon, the "contemptible creature" and the "disgusting thing" have until now been "as a thief". (Rev 16:15.  1 Thess 5:2,3). Although enemies of God now proclaim "Peace and Security!" the figurative baring of His holy arm will remove these "haughtily exultant ones" and free  His people. (Zeph 3:11-13). With our own eyes we shall see the Lord returning in  pity to Zion. (52:8 NEB). "Something better" is the news of our salvation.  (52:7 NEB & NWT).

"In Zion* sinners quake with terror, the Godless are seized with trembling and ask,  Can any of us live with a devouring fire?  Can any live in endless burning?"  (33:14 NEB).

"The goblet, My cup of rage" put by Jehovah into the hand of those
  tormenting and oppressing His people  (Isaiah 51:21-23 NWT & NEB):

ADDENDUM.
When the "goblet" symbolizing the wrath of God was put into the hands of enemies of Zion for them to drink, the earthquake in Mexico City took place, killing 7,000 men. Since then, many earthquakes  have occurred. (Matt 24:7,8).  Millions have died in Ethiopia and surrounding lands through drought, famine, war and disease. Millions have died from A.I.D.S. throughout the world. Babylon/Iraq is currently undergoing its desolation by God. The threat of terrorism is growing in many countries. People of commercial "Babylon" worldwide were warned in advance of their coming destruction when those working in the World Trade Center in New York were destroyed (the towers mimicked those of ancient Babylon). The "goblet" to drink from is also in the hands of those responsible for building the "widemouthed cooking pot" around Jerusalem: The wall of hostility towards another race currently under construction by Israel. (Ezek 11:2,3). This "goblet" will also be put into the hands (lives) of all sectarian apostates on earth and everyone else who has warred against any of the 144,000 anointed heirs of the incoming Kingdom government of God by means of His Christ Michael.
