Isaiah
The Book of Isaiah: 1:1-1:21 pages
We
begin this study with The Book of the prophet Isaiah. The period is
approximately from 649 – 588 B.C. The word Isaiah in the Hebrew, means “The
Salvation of Jehovah”. The Book of Isaiah is quoted much in the Gospel, and
Jesus Himself would read from Isaiah in the Temple.
Isaiah Chapter 61: Read All.
Jesus didn’t
complete the reading of the 2nd verse in Chap. 61 while in the
Temple, for it wasn’t time for His second coming.
Luke 4:17-21:
17
And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he
had opened the book, he found the place where it was written,
18
The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the
gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the broken hearted, to preach
deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty
them that are bruised.
19
To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
20
And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And
the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him.
21
And he began to say unto them, This day is the scripture fulfilled in your
ears.
Isaiah 61:1-2:
The
spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to preach
good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the broken-hearted, to
proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that
are bound;
2 To
proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God;
to comfort all that mourn.
This is a long book, 66 Chapters,
so here we go. We ask a Word of Wisdom from our Father in Christ’s Name, Amen:
Isaiah 1:1 the vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw
concerning Judah and Jerusalem in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings
of Judah.
These
are Kings that were in existence during that time. Note the distinction ‘kings of Judah’.
(I did the Lost Tribe studies so you would understand this
marker of ‘kings
of Judah’, and other terms in Isaiah, such as ‘house of Judah’, ‘house of Israel’, ‘Samaria’, ‘Ephraim’, etc. You
might want to check those studies out).
Isa 1:2 Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth: for
the LORD hath spoken, I have nourished and brought up children, and they have
rebelled against Me.
This
is also the way the Song of Moses starts in Deut. 32:1. Give ear, O ye heavens, and I will speak; and hear, O
earth, the words of my mouth. This is God speaking out to the
whole earth, to all. God is the Father of all ‘souls’. He ‘nourished’ us, and
now they have outright rebelled against Him. Don’t
think that He is talking about those during the time of Isaiah only.
All you need to do is look around today. The rebellion against Him is not
hard to see. This great nation of America (Manasseh, and UK Ephraim) has just
about taken God’s Stamp off its heritage. Even Paul would tell us in I
Corinthians 10 Read All: How the events in The Old Testament are examples for
us, revealing a blueprint for the things that would befall us in the end time.
Consider the following:
1 Cor 10:11 Now all these things happened unto them for
ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the
world are come.
