What does Isaiah 2:5 mean?

Isaiah has painted a picture of an era in the far future. Then, all nations of the earth will worship the God of Jacob in Jerusalem. In fact, God Himself will reign over the world from Jerusalem in the form of the Messiah (Isaiah 11:1–10). War will cease to exist, and the world will live in absolute peace.

Because that is Israel's future, Isaiah calls for the Israelites of his day to walk in the light of the Lord now. He tells them not to wait for the Lord to rule over the earth, but to live by the Lord's rule over them in the present moment. His peace can rule over their nation in their time if they repent and submit to Him in faithfulness.
