Isaiah - Symbolic Depiction of Nations

IsaiahSteve Gregg
Isaiah raises repeated themes and motifs found in later prophets, particularly in the way nations are described non-literally. The speaker discusses how nations are often joined at the hip of existence as a political entity, not necessarily believing in monotheism and worshipping gods other than the God of Israel. The speaker also explains how healing in the book of Isaiah always refers to spiritual restoration, and how Gentiles are often referred to collectively as the sea.
