Isaiah Overview (Part 1)

In this overview of Isaiah by Steve Gregg, we learn that Isaiah was a prophet, poet, historian, and statesman who had significant political influence across various kings in his time. His book is divided into two sections, the first dealing with the threat from Assyria, and the second with the threat from Babylon. There is controversy among scholars about whether Isaiah wrote the entire book or if it was written by multiple authors. However, Isaiah's book contains both poetry and historical narratives, with chapters 36-39 being almost identical to the historical accounts in 2 Kings.
