Bible Question:
Hello Hank, Come to think of it I do have a question. Is Isaiah a prophet? Love in Christ, Aaron |
Bible Answer: Aaron: Yes, Isaiah was a prophet, and a famous one of the first rank, standing, as he does, as a literary genius without equal among the prophets of Israel. His prophetic book which bears his name has long been considered a masterpiece of Jewish literature, and it is particularly noted for its prophecies regarding Immanuel and the Suffering Servant. It is not hard to see, after a careful reading of the 66 chapters of the Book of Isaiah, why Isaiah has been called "The Prince of Prophets." There are many moving passages in Isaiah, but none in my judgment more so than the incomparable Chapter 53. Thanks for your question; I hope the response is adequate. --Hank |
