The ultimate effect of the preaching of the way of the Lord through the prophet and temple is the cessation of strife and conflict. The military strife between nations is symbolic of any strife or conflict between man. This is clearly an apocalyptic vision, where the ultimate return of the law of God to all nations will inaugurate the peace of God on all of the land, clearly a part of the prophecy which yet lies in the future. The judge of this prophecy is the returned Christ, whose rule will usher in this peace.
