Isaiah 65:22 tells us that ~GOD'S~ people will live only as long as trees! But according to Pre-Millennial theology, God's people will live on forever!
"game, set, match" is also OP's saying. Thus, the_doc ~and~ OP are my heroes!!!

I guess that also answers the question about the mothers and fathers of God's people who die during the millennium being sorrowful. They won't be sorrowful becaause they will not be around to witness the death of their sons and daughters. They will die before their sons and daughters because they will only live as long as a tree then they will die.
This doesn't answer the question, however, of the brothers and sisters of ~God's~ people who die. Will they weep and be sorrowful in the death of their brothers and sisters? Well, of course not! There is no more weeping and sorrow! Thus, when the brothers and sisters of God's people shall die (remember, they only live as long as trees, then die) they SHALL REJOICE in the death of their brothers and sisters!
Boy! This millennial kingdom is sounding like a wonderful place!
God's people only living as long as trees
Nobody will mourn and weep for the dead. They will only rejoice when their mothers, fathers, brothers and sisters (including God's people) have died!
The lion shall lie down with the lamb, but watch out for the Jews and their renewed animal sacrifices.
And a ~huge~ rebellion at the end of the 1000 years!
And an ~end~ of the thousand years which will come unexpectedly -as a theif in the night!
I ~can't~ wait to get there!
