ISAIAH
c.777 - c.692 BC
Hebrew Prophet




As the Assyrian empire threatened the existence of Israel the prophet Isaiah proclaimed that the threat was a warning from God to a godless people.

Isaiah urged the kings of Judah to pursue justice and avoid dangerous alliances, trusting in God's protection instead. Isaiah held that if it is God who decides the destiny of nations, security is for God to grant and for men to deserve.

Isaiah promised that a messiah would eventually appear to offer salvation.
