IsaiahSteve Gregg
Isaiah, the book of prophetic revelations, contains powerful poetry that inspired and thrilled readers despite being foreign to Western readers. In this introduction by Steve Gregg, he discusses Isaiah's background, prophetic vision, and the timeframe of his prophecies. Gregg also explains how the book, which is divided into seven sections, contains predictions of the Messianic age and the passing of the old covenant. Despite some scholars questioning whether Isaiah wrote all the chapters, Gregg emphasizes that the book's supernatural predictions are essential to understanding the Old Testament message.
