Insights on the Book of Isaiah: A Verse by Verse Study

For more than four decades, Alan Stringfellow's Bible studies have brought greater insight into God’s Word to thousands of believers. Now, the author of Through the Bible in One Year and Great Characters of the Bible leads readers on a chapter-by-chapter study of the book of Isaiah. Stringfellow's in-depth teaching will bring clarity and understanding to one of the most prophetic books in Scripture. With this study, readers will learn…

• How to identify the major themes of Isaiah
• All the main doctrines and truths
• The importance and relevance of prophecy
• Essential context and background for the little-known prophet Isaiah
• The role Isaiah plays in the coming of the Messiah

By embarking on this journey, believers will learn to better understand and appreciate the role of the prophet--to foretell the future, but also to speak truth to a lost and sinful generation. Stringfellow makes powerful connections between the wealth and plenty of Isaiah's time and the abundance and decadence of our present world. The true value of this prophecy is that it occupies us with a Person, and not merely with events—the person of our Lord Jesus Christ, who came to suffer and will return to reign. All of this is foretold by a great poetic genius whose gripping words and imagery could only have been inspired by the hand of God.
