Vayyikra R. 10 — tent enlarged in Messianic times
This lesson explores how Isaiah 54:2 connects to Jesus.
Enlarge the place of your tent, stretch your tent curtains wide, do not hold back; lengthen your cords, strengthen your stakes.
I have other sheep that are not of this sheep pen. I must bring them also. They too will listen to my voice, and there shall be one flock and one shepherd.

Vayyikra R. 10 — tent enlarged in Messianic times
Isaiah called Israel to expand her tent for the multitudes coming in. Jesus declared He has other sheep beyond Israel's fold — all would become one flock under one shepherd. The tent stretches to cover the world.
Jesus, send me with Your heart for people. Let Other Sheep I Have move me from admiration into obedience.
