| | Isaiah - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Isaiah or Yeshayáhu (יְשַׁעְיָהוּ "Salvation of/is the Lord", Standard Hebrew Yəšaʿyáhu, Tiberian Hebrew Yəšaʿăyāhû, Greek Ἠσαίας = Ēsaias) was the son of Amoz, and commonly considered the author of the Book of Isaiah. | | | Isaiah was married to a woman referred to as "the prophetess" (8:3). | | | Isaiah probably lived to its close, and possibly into the reign of Manasseh, but the time and manner of his death are not specified in either the Bible or recorded history. |

| | Chapter 18: Isaiah and Micah |
| | For a defense of the unity of Isaiah cf. | | | Isaiah's term "the Holy One of Israel" (1:4; 5:19, 24) implies that Yahweh, as the God of a particular people, demanded ethical and ritual purity of those who were close to him, for ethical and moral impurity made it impossible for the Holy Yahweh to draw near to his people. | | | Isaiah argued that the greatest threat was within, in the prosperity that fostered greed and ruthlessness and injustice, in religion that was outward rather than inward. |

| | Isaiah: The Salvation of the Lord |
| | Isaiah was the greatest of the prophets and a superb master of language. | | | Also, the prophetic nature of the book of Isaiah is one of the great proofs that the Bible is the word of God, for Isaiah lived some 724 years before Christ. | | | Isaiah is the fullest revelation of Christ in the Old Testament -- so much so, that it is often called "the gospel according to Isaiah." To acquaint yourself with these magnificent, prophetic passages looking forward to Christ is to experience much of the richness and depth of Scripture. |

| | Isaiah was witness to one of the most turbulent periods in Jerusalem's history, from both the political and the religious standpoint. | | | A paramount shaper of the prophetic vision was Isaiah, who was active over an extraordinarily lengthy period of time: "The prophecies of Isaiah son of Amoz, who prophesied concerning Judah and Jerusalem in the reigns of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah "(Isaiah 1:1). | | | Isaiah is also considered the most universal of the prophets: "In the days to come, the Mount of the Lord's House shall stand firm above the mountains... |

| | Isaiah was certain that a faithful remnant would always carry on the divine mission (Shearjashub, Isaiah 1:9). | | | Isaiah was called to be a prophet of Yahweh in striking visions which he experienced in the Temple about 740 B.C., the year that the aged Judean king Uzziah died (Isaiah 6:1). | | | Thus in Isaiah 28:1 the inebriated aristocracy of Israel failed to discern the fading flower of their nation; and they were supported in their dereliction by the priests and prophets. |
