Recipient of a Christianity Today 1994 Critics Choice Award! Among Old Testament prophetic books no other equals Isaiah’s brilliance of style and metaphor, its arresting vision of the Holy One in every of Israel and its kaleidoscopic vision of God’s future restoration of Israel and the world. Now, after over three decades of studying and teaching Isaiah, Alec Motyer presents a wealth of statement and point of view on this book. His emphasis is at the grammatical, historical, structural, literary and theological dimensions of the text. Though in keeping with the Hebrew text, his exposition easily accomodates readers with no working knowledge of biblical Hebrew. And he writes with an interest in Isaiah’s meaning for Christians nowadays. Along the historical timeline on which the Isaianic prophecies are strung, Motyer finds three central and recurring themes: the messianic hope, the motif of the city and the theology of the Holy One in every of Israel. Moreover, he argues, the Isaianic literature is organized around three messianic portraits: the King (Isaiah 1-37), the Servant (Isaiah 38-55) and the Anointed Conqueror (Isaiah 56-66). Preachers, teachers and serious Bible students of all types will find this statement a wise, winsome and welcome guide to the prophecy of Isaiah. It is going to easily be the most efficient one-volume evangelical statement on Isaiah to be had nowadays.
