They did not appear in the king's court, the marketplaces, or the temple to proclaim God's message as did Elijah, Isaiah,

We know that in the next chapter of Isaiah that the same Hebrew word is used to call Israel a seed (or children/offspring) of snakes

Isaiah 8:8 says that the Messiah’s wings shall stretch out over Judah
7.
As it says in Isaiah 14:1-2, “For the Lord will have mercy on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and set them in their own land: and the strangers shall be joined with them, and they shall cleave to the house of Jacob
8.
Old Testament prophecies – such as Isaiah 56 – tell us that there would be people outside of Israel that are accepted by the Lord as a part of Israel
9.
The religions of those nations that only bore bad fruit will be abolished and all nations will go to Jerusalem to celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles (Isaiah 2:2, Zechariah 14:16)

And in mercy shall the throne be established: and he shall sit upon it in truth in the tabernacle of David, judging, and seeking judgment, and hasting righteousness (Isaiah 16:5)

As it is said in Isaiah 10:20, “And it shall come to pass in that day, that the remnant of Israel, and such as have escaped of the house of Jacob, shall no more lean upon him who smote them (the Antichrist), but shall lean upon the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, in truth
12.
” This passage in Isaiah speaks of an escape
13.
As it says in Isaiah 66:8, and also mentioned by Zechariah in his 13th chapter that in a single day will Israel be born
14.
Along the same lines, we read from Isaiah 11:11, “And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set His hand again the second time to recover the remnant of His people; who shall be left, fro Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar (which is Babylon), and from Hamath, and from the coastlands of the sea
15.
We read of this in Isaiah 51:4: “Hearken unto me, my people; and give ear unto me, O my nation; for a law shall proceed from me, and I will make my justice to rest for a light of the peoples
16.
“By this, therefore, shall the iniquity of Jacob be purged: and this is all the fruit to take away his sin, when he maketh all the stones of the altar as chalkstones that are beaten in sunder, so that the idols and images shall not stand up,” Isaiah 27:9
17.
God shall set up a banner for the nations when He gathers them from the ends of the earth (Isaiah 11:12)
18.
According to Isaiah 49:22-23, even the kings and queens of the earth shall bring them back upon their shoulders! This re-gathering of Israel will be such a moment that all people in all countries in all lands shall behold it and shall know the Lord is God
19.
As it says in Isaiah 32:1, “Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and princes shall rule in justice
20.
Satan is bound by chains and thrown into a pit (Revelation 20:1-2, Isaiah 24:21-22)
21.
In Isaiah chapter 24, it speaks in the last few verses about a time when the kings and rulers of this world will be tied up and thrown into a pit for an extended period of time
22.
They knew that Isaiah spoke of 90% of Israel being empty
23.
Maybe this is why when Isaiah speaks of a New Heaven and New Earth at the end of his book that he speaks of life continuing as it has on this present earth
24.
Oh, that you would rend the heavens and come down, that the mountains would tremble before you! (Isaiah 64:1)
25.
One might sense that someone has a strong prophetic call on his or her life and so they prophesy that the person is the next Isaiah
26.
This truth is found in Isaiah chapter 58 and I encourage you to read and study Isaiah 58

Isaiah, in chapter 58, is powerful tool

It is very important to note that the only other time it is used in all of Tenach (The Hebrew Bible) is in Isaiah 66:24, which was discussed

41.
First of all, we need to realize that Jesus is quoting verbatim Isaiah 66:24 in this
42.
If Jesus is quoting Isaiah,

shouldn't we read Isaiah too? Obviously Jesus would not disagree with Isaiah

Remember, Mary? When we studied about the Prophet Isaiah
53.
Isaiah said, „Therefore, the Lord himself will give you a sign: Behold a virgin will be with child and bear a son, and she will call his name Immanuel
54.
It was also during this process that the book order was altered to the order we have in the Bible today: Historical (Genesis - Esther), poetic (Job - Song of Songs), and prophetic (Isaiah – Malachi)
55.
-- Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel and the 12 Minor Prophets ascribe themselves to the scribes whose name the Book bears
56.
-- Moses, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Hosea, Joel, David and Daniel are expressly quoted in the New Testament
57.
The book of the prophet Isaiah was handed to Him to read
58.
So, if we have two groups of people holding two different beliefs and having the same Book as basis for their beliefs, how does one tell right from wrong? Could it be that both are right, or both are wrong? One chapter in the Bible that probably causes most of the dissension between Christians and Jews is Isaiah 53, which is considered by many to be the high ground in the Old Testament
59.
Before we get into that, let us consider the surface text of Isaiah 52 from verse 13 to the end of Isaiah 53 below:
60.
There has been a lot of controversy over this piece of scripture where Jews feel that Isaiah 53 refers to the nation Israel and they provide proof from various passages that show that when God refers to his servant, it actually points to Israel
61.
25 Some of these, from the Jewish perspective are listed below and are also from Isaiah:
62.
While Jews reject Jesus Christ as their Messiah and the New Testament in its entirety as being part of God’s Word, Christians are of the opinion that the information conveyed through Isaiah 53, as with many other passages and models that are used throughout the Bible, points to Jesus Christ as the Messiah
63.
If we compare the same information in Isaiah 53 to other scriptures, prophecies and to the events as they unfolded during Jesus’ crucifixion from a Christian point of view (also taking into account the information provided in the New Testament and the fact that Jesus himself declared that the Jews would be blinded to not recognise who He was) it fits the scenario described in here even better
64.
Why do Christians then believe that Isaiah 53 actually refers to Jesus as the Messiah and that the passage does not only refer to the nation Israel? To start this journey of discovery, one needs to refer to Daniel 9:25, where the angel Gabriel appeared to Daniel and gave him a very precise date of when Israel’s Messiah would be revealed
65.
What is interesting about this passage is that Jesus quoted a passage from Isaiah 61, but stopped halfway through the passage when he closed the book and declared that the prophecy was fulfilled in their ears on that day
66.
He left out the part in bold below – let us look at this again as it is written in Isaiah:
67.
The Jews, who were at that time captives in Babylon, showed Cyrus the prophecy of his life and actions as described in the book of Isaiah
68.
Some sceptics will point to Isaiah, where the Bible clearly states that God did not create the Earth to be empty and void, and compare that with the second verse of Genesis 1, in which the Bible states that the Earth was void and empty
69.
To answer the question above, it is clear that the passage from Isaiah indicates that God is addressing his purpose for the Earth and that his intentions would be for it to be inhabited
70.
This is confirmed by what He said in Isaiah 59:21, “As for me, this is my covenant with them, saith the LORD; My spirit that is upon thee, and my words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed's seed, saith the LORD, from henceforth and forever
