	+	==Commentary==
	+
	+	The Book of Isaiah is a book of the [[Old Testament]] containing the words of the prophet [[Isaiah]]. Although it talks about [[judgement]], it ultimately declares a message of hope describing the coming [[Messiah]] and saviour.
	+
	+	Most scholars consider that Isaiah was written in two parts. The first half is generally believed to have been written by Isaiah (chapters 1-39) and the second half by another author (chapters 40 to 66). The reason for this is that the chapters 1 to 39 are set before the exile, whereas from chapter 40 onwards, the book looks at a time two hundred years later, after the return of exile.
	+
	+	God's character as a [[holy]], sovereign, just, yet compassionate and merciful God is revealed throughout Isaiah.
	+
	+	===Isaiah 1-39===
	+
	+	The first 39 chapters of Isaiah were written in eighth century BC, in the era before the [[Kingdom of Judah]] was exiled, during the reigns of the king [[Hezekiah]]. These chapters tell the story of the prophet Isaiah and his ministry to the Israelites calling the people realize their sin and trust in God's forgiveness.
	+
	+	====Themes====
	+
	+	'''A sinful people'''
	+
	+	In [[Isaiah 1]] the people are accused of only lacking knowledge of God.

	+
	+	'''Judgement and Exile'''
	+
	+	...
	+
	+	'''Forgiveness'''
	+
	+	Isaiah has a message of [[forgiveness]] to the people. [[Isaiah 1:18]] contains the very well known and beautiful words of God's forgiveness.
	+	: ''{{Bible verse\|isaiah\|1\|18\|lang=WEB}}''
	+
	+	'''Hope of justice and restoration to the land'''
	+
	+	===Isaiah 40-66===
	+
	+	Most scholars agree that chapters 40 to 66 of Isaiah were written a number of centuries later than the first 39 chapters of Isaiah, in the post-exilic era of the 6th century BC. Isaiah 40 to 66 are certainly written with this historical context in mind, with these chapters discussing the return of the exiled Israelites to Israel under the command of the Persian king [[Cyrus]]. Additionally these chapters are written in a different language style than the first half of Isaiah, and Isaiah's name is not mentioned.
	+
	+	The messages of Isaiah 40 to 66 are written in a poetic style and appear to be compiled in a disordered manner. The message is that God is the sovereign creator who loves his people and will redeem them.
	+
	+	====Themes====
	+
	+	'''God is the creator, and created Israel'''
	+
	+	...
	+
	+	'''Incomparable - God is God, all the other pagan deities are nothing'''
	+
	+	Passages such as Isaiah 44 show God's contempt towards the worship of created inanimate objects.

		+
		+	The Book of Isaiah is a book of the [[Old Testament]] containing the words of the prophet [[Isaiah]]. Although it talks about [[judgement]], it ultimately declares a message of hope describing the coming [[Messiah]] and saviour.
		+
		+	Most scholars consider that Isaiah was written in two parts. The first half is generally believed to have been written by Isaiah (chapters 1-39) and the second half by another author (chapters 40 to 66). The reason for this is that the chapters 1 to 39 are set before the exile, whereas from chapter 40 onwards, the book looks at a time two hundred years later, after the return of exile.
		+
		+	God's character as a [[holy]], sovereign, just, yet compassionate and merciful God is revealed throughout Isaiah.
		+
		+	===Isaiah 1-39===
		+
		+	The first 39 chapters of Isaiah were written in eighth century BC, in the era before the [[Kingdom of Judah]] was exiled, during the reigns of the king [[Hezekiah]]. These chapters tell the story of the prophet Isaiah and his ministry to the Israelites calling the people realize their sin and trust in God's forgiveness.
		+
		+	====Themes====
		+
		+	'''A sinful people'''
		+
		+	In [[Isaiah 1]] the people are accused of only lacking knowledge of God.
		+	: ''{{web_verse\|isaiah\|1\|2}} {{web_verse\|isaiah\|1\|3}}'' ''([[Isaiah 1]]:2-3)''
		+
		+	In [[Isaiah 2]] the people are accused of idolatory

		+
		+	'''Judgement and Exile'''
		+
		+	...
		+
		+	'''Forgiveness'''
		+
		+	Isaiah has a message of [[forgiveness]] to the people. [[Isaiah 1:18]] contains the very well known and beautiful words of God's forgiveness.
		+	: ''{{web_verse\|isaiah\|1\|18}}''
		+
		+	'''Hope of justice and restoration to the land'''
		+
		+	===Isaiah 40-66===
		+
		+	Most scholars agree that chapters 40 to 66 of Isaiah were written a number of centuries later than the first 39 chapters of Isaiah, in the post-exilic era of the 6th century BC. Isaiah 40 to 66 are certainly written with this historical context in mind, with these chapters discussing the return of the exiled Israelites to Israel under the command of the Persian king [[Cyrus]]. Additionally these chapters are written in a different language style than the first half of Isaiah, and Isaiah's name is not mentioned.
		+
		+	The messages of Isaiah 40 to 66 are written in a poetic style and appear to be compiled in a disordered manner. The message is that God is the sovereign creator who loves his people and will redeem them.
		+
		+	====Themes====
		+
		+	'''God is the creator, and created Israel'''
		+
		+	...
		+
		+	'''Incomparable - God is God, all the other pagan deities are nothing'''
		+
		+	Passages such as Isaiah 44 show God's contempt towards the worship of created inanimate objects.
