| Summary |
"The World English Bible (WEB): Isaiah" by Anonymous is a religious text, part of the Old Testament, likely written in the late 8th century BCE during the prophetic ministry of Isaiah, a major prophet in Judaism and Christianity. The text conveys profound theological and social messages, addressing the people of Israel and Judah, emphasizing themes of sin, judgment, hope, and redemption in the context of their relationship with Yahweh. The opening of the book presents Isaiah's vision concerning Judah and Jerusalem, marking it with a divine call to listen and reflect on their spiritual state. He expresses God's disappointment with the people for their rebellion and injustice, drawing comparisons to familiar animals to emphasize their lack of understanding of their Master's will. Throughout these passages, Isaiah addresses the consequences of immorality and idolatry, calling for repentance and the pursuit of justice. This sets the stage for the unfolding of prophetic messages that blend warnings of impending doom with promises of future restoration for the faithful remnant of Israel.
