In the latter days, the mountain of Yahweh’s house becomes the head mountain, and the nations come to it.  They say “Let us ascend the mountain of Yahweh” (Isaiah 2:3).  They are the great ascension offering of the nations arising in smoke to the Lord.

Hence Paul: His ministry to the Gentiles is a priestly task. offering the Gentiles up in smoke to the God of Israel.
