| Description: |
Christians have long used the book of Isaiah as a source of proof-texts for messianic prophecy. But another aspect of its value has not received the same wide recognition. That is its primary importance as the revelation of God's inauguration of a new age for his people - an age in which servanthood, not rulership, is the sign of their election. With Israel's rejection of this message, the stage is set for Isaiah's Vision to portray God's dealings with and grand design for his people through twelve generations of history. The meticulous and detailed scholarship of this valuable commentary is never allowed to obscure the timeliness of Isaiah's Vision for all generations, not just those whose history it records. |
