Isaiah 33 Commentary Not all of Isaiah’s visions are a cent for tomorrow’s shopping. Many of them could be picked up and applied immediately in Isaiah’s own times.

Judah isContinueContinue reading “Isaiah 28 Commentary”

Isaiah 27 Commentary The LORD promises to punish Israel’s enemies. But they can make peace with the LORD and avoid this punishment. The compassion of the LORD speaks loudest.
