God's Plan is Complete
Commentators emphasize that the phrase "They are come to pass" (or "It is done") is a divine declaration of finality. Echoing Jesus' cry of "It is finished" on the cross, God here proclaims the absolute completion of His entire redemptive plan. The old order has passed, the new creation is finished, and all promises are fulfilled. This is not a future hope, but a present reality from God's perspective, assuring believers that His work is complete and perfect.
