Isaiah in the Book of Mormon
Author: Donald W. Parry
Publisher: Maxwell Institute
ISBN: 9780934893299
Category : Bible
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Of Isaiah' prophetic writings, the resurrected Lord taught, "Search these things diligently; for great are the words of Isaiah" (3 Nephi 32:1). Yet no chapters in the Book of Mormon are more difficult to understand than the Isaiah passages quoted by Nephi, Jacob, Abinadi, and Christ himself. The 17 essays in Isaiah in the Book of Mormon take a variety of approaches in seeking to help readers make the most of Isaiah's teachings. The contributing scholars draw on the Book of Mormon prophets as knowledgeable guides, examining how and why those ancient writers used and interpreted Isaiah's prophetic teachings. They explain Nephi's keys for understanding the great prophet, use historical and linguistic information to clarify his meanings, examine recurring themes, and reflect on the influence of these texts on ancient and modern saints.

Isaiah For You

Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
Expository Bible-study guide to Isaiah. Isaiah can seem intimidating. It's a big book covering an extended timescale, full of unfamiliar names and places. You may be familiar with Isaiah's vision of God's holiness in chapter 6 or his description of the cross in chapter 53. But large sections can feel like alien territory. But the book of Isaiah is full of good news. Forming a kind of bridge between the Old Testament and the New Testament, Isaiah enlarges our view of God, sharpens our understanding of salvation, and illuminates our Bible reading. It points forward to Jesus and fuels our vision for the church and our mission. This is good news worth shouting about! This expository guide by pastor and author Tim Chester takes you verse by verse through the text in a digestible and applied way. Each chapter focuses on a key text and shows how its themes play out in the surrounding passages, helping you to drill down into the details while also seeing the big picture. You'll find ideas and challenges for application throughout, plus a helpful glossary at the back. It is less academic than a traditional commentary and includes lots of application. It can be read from cover to cover, used in personal devotions, used to lead small group studies, or used for sermon preparation.

The Book of Isaiah (2020 Edition)
Author: Brian Simmons
Publisher: BroadStreet Publishing Group LLC
ISBN: 142456347X
Category : Bibles
Languages : en
Pages : 291
Book Description
The book of Isaiah is a collection of prophecies that is more than a historical record or teaching. It is the overarching vision of the heart of God revealed to his prophet. It spans the ages and touches every nation on earth, becoming a collective overview of all that God has planned. The message of Isaiah is one of victory, hope, comfort, and restoration. The themes of its prophecies are unrivaled in all of Scripture. With panoramic insight, Isaiah preaches the virgin birth of Christ, the bride of Christ, and the New Jerusalem. These prophecies also present a description of the cataclysmic judgments, the survival of a holy remnant emerging in Zion, and the canopy of glory that is coming to earth. It was because of our rebellious deeds that he was pierced and because of our sins that he was crushed. He endured the punishment that made us completely whole, and in his wounding we found our healing. Isaiah 53:5

The Book of Isaiah
Author: Ulrich Berges
Publisher: Sheffield Phoenix Press Limited
ISBN: 9781907534591
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 622
Book Description
Study of the book of Isaiah has in recent times been strongly marked by a tension between synchronic and diachronic approaches. The first is favoured mainly by English-speaking, the second by German-speaking scholars. Berges's book attempts to mediate between the two poles, arguing that the final form analysis and the tracing of the development of that form are deeply interdependent. This new research paradigm is applied here to the entire text of the book of Isaiah. Berges works consistently from the synchronic to the diachronic and back again to the evolved synchronous final form. Features that have been repeatedly observed-the cross-connections, key word associations, resumption of themes, and especially the bracketing of the book by chaps. 1 and 66-are traces of a deliberate interweaving of various small compositions as well as of larger literary redactions. The paradigm most suited to the book of Isaiah in all its complexity is not that of one comprehensive overall structure or final redaction, but that of smaller compositions that build on one another, come into conversation with one another, and, each in its own way, bring into play specific contemporary problems. We should not force a common thematic denominator on the book, but it becomes clear that Jerusalem and Zion belong to the basic tenor of the book of Isaiah as it was developed and refashioned through the centuries. The Book of Isaiah: Its Composition and Final Form is translated by Millard C. Lind from its German original, Das Buch Jesaja: Komposition und Endgestalt (Freiburg: Herder, 1998).

Book Description
This project is not by any stretch of the imagination exhaustive, and to date there are some chapters that I have not found a correlation yet, though I know they will be revealed to a believing heart and sober mind. I hope the Lord will use this paper to whet your appetite for your own time of digging in the mine of the chapters of the prophet Isaiah. I have found many interesting facts that non-bible believers call "coincidences" relating to the subject at hand and I know there are many yet to be uncovered. Some of the nuggets are as plain as daylight while some are vague and may be not so abundantly clear, but let God be true and every man, (including myself) a liar. (Romans 3:4) *There are a little over 31,000 words in Isaiah; there are a little over 31,000 verses in the King James Bible. *There are 66 chapters in Isaiah; there are 66 books in the King James Bible, each chapter corresponding to that particular book number. Isa.1- Gen., Isa. 2-Exo., Isa. 3-Lev., etc, *Isaiah knew there would be 66 books in the Bible, no more no less. *There is a natural division in Isaiah at chapter 39 and 40. Isaiah knew that there would be 39 books in the Old Testament written, and there would be 27 more written after he showed up.At Isaiah 40:3-8 (corresponding to Matthew the 40th book of the Bible) we see the appearance of the forerunner of the LORD, John the Baptist crying in the wilderness "Prepare ye the way of the LORD".Isa. 40:9 the prophet cries out "Behold your God!" John the Baptist cries out "Behold the Lamb of God", who we recognize to be Jesus Christ, God in the flesh. *The New Testament concept of GOD as REDEEMER, the Holy One of Israel, begins in the New Testament chapters of Isa. 40-66. Isa 41:14 "thy redeemer the Holy One of Israel" is used for the very first time in the N.T. book of Mark 1:24 the 41st book of the Bible, corresponding to the 41st chapter of Isaiah, "The Holy One of God"). *The first time that the word Spirit with a capital "S" shows up in Isaiah, it just happens to show up in the N.T. Chapters of Isaiah. 40-66, this nugget appears seven (7) times in Isaiah. 40:13, 48:16, 59:19, 61:1, 63:10,11,14, and ONLY appears in the New Testament. chapters of Isaiah. There are many more thoughts to consider.Let us now begin at Isa. 1 and compile the facts found in that chapter as they relate to Genesis, Isa. 2 with Exodus, Isa. 3 with Leviticus, etc. Isaiah is in BLACK, the corresponding book is in RED. I pray that you will be blessed as we make this journey through Isaiah in your bible reading.

Jerusalem and the Nations
Author: Ronald Ernest Clements
Publisher: Sheffield Phoenix Press Limited
ISBN: 9781905048816
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
This volume contains the fruit of three decades of Ronald Clements's researches on prophecy in the Old Testament. In sixteen papers, seven of them not previously published, he broaches several leading questions about the origins of written prophecy in the Old Testament. A major focus is on the impact of the events of 701 BCE on the formation of the Isaiah book as a whole and the rise of Jerusalem as a centre of religious hope. Further studies deal with the role of the Isaiah book in current biblical interpretation and the failure of twentieth-century interpreters to explain its unity. Other subjects concern ideas of divine providence, theodicy, and the links between ancient scribal methods of book formation and canonical authority. Special attention is given to the attempts to retain traditional Christian approaches to a book, the interpretation of which has been greatly transformed by modern critical study.
