Isaiah - Introduction (Part 2): Authorship

IsaiahSteve Gregg
Isaiah, one of the greatest literary productions of the Old Testament, contains a range of prophecies attributed to God's revelation to man. Despite being authored by a single author, there are certain debates surrounding the authorship of some chapters of the book. While some scholars argue that Isaiah authored all the chapters, others have attributed some chapters to Trito Isaiah. However, the traditional authorship of the book is accepted by conservative scholars, who have also found unique vocabulary words and coincidences that support the idea of a single authorship.
