Introduction. Nature of the book of Isaiah; Origin, date and characters; Historical background and setting; Theology and purpose; Canonical status; Literary issues; Structure; Style; Unity/authorship; Textual issues -- Analysis -- Commentary.
Summary: "No other prophetic book rivals Isaiah's clear message, powerful imagery, and confident hope in God's future deliverance. The prophet's vision of God's glory and holiness in chapter 6 permeates the whole book, and he never tires of correcting misplaced faith in power or false gods. In this thorough and accessible Tyndale commentary, Paul Wegner explores the background, structure, and themes of Isaiah. While many scholars divide the book with a gap of about 150 years between chapters 39 and 40, Wegner highlights the unified message of the book, including its three introductions (Is 1:1; 2:1; 13:1) paired with its three refrains (Is 48:22; 57:21; 66:24). Each part illuminates God's glorious plan for his people." -- Provided by publisher.
