Explorer's Bible Study on Isaiah
Overview
This course is an exciting study of one of the greatest prophets of Israel. For sixty years Isaiah served as a prophet, writer, and statesman during a most critical and eventful period of his nation’s history. Out of his devoted loyalty to the God who loved Israel, his unswerving faith, and patriotism came the greatest moral revolution and the reign of the great king Hezekiah. (30 Lessons)

Top Highlights
“The Hebrew word for prophet is ‘nabi’ which means one who speaks (or the act of speaking) for God, not only in His name and by His authority, but under His influence; in other words, by divine inspiration.” (source)
“It was the task of the prophets to restore what had been lost by the teachers who had distorted the truth of the law and failed to teach its inner spiritual meaning. They were authorized exponents of the law.” (source)
“He won his position to speak and be heard through persistent and patient effort. Isaiah is regarded as the most influential man, with the exception of King David, in the whole history of the nation Israel.” (Volume 1, Page 2)
“‘Here am I and the children whom the Lord has given me! We are for signs and wonders in Israel.’” (Volume 1, Page 2)
“God had given Israel all it could have needed, and yet His people had proven to be a miserable failure. The parable gives us the peculiar privileges, obligations, guilt and doom of Israel, who had been a highly favored vineyard. They had every opportunity to make good and be a praise and a peculiar treasure to God, nevertheless, instead of good fruit, they brought forth only wild grapes. His unfaithful and carnally minded people would, therefore, be given up to desolation.” (Volume 1, Page 31)
