Isaiah married a woman called prophetess and they had two sons; Shear-jashub which meaning a remnant will return, and Maher-shalal-hash-baz which means quick prey. During the time of King Uzziah’s Isaiah got the call from God to prophesy giving him a vision in the Temple (Isaiah 6:1-1 KJV). Uzziah was considered a good king. The nation experienced a time of peace and prosperity. Unfortunately, upon King Uzziah’s death things began to decline and Judah began experiencing some instabilities.

He received the call of God to prophesy 625 B.C. and it lasted almost 60 years, until after the fall of Jerusalem to the Babylonians in 586 B.C. In the beginning Jeremiah hesitated to answer the call because he did not think he was equipped. He said he was too young but God reassured him he had anointed him and he went to boldly declare the Word according to the Lord (Jer. 1: 5-7). Jeremiah love Judah but his love for God was stronger and he walked in obedience. He warned Judah of God’s judgement and tried to spare them from the destructive nature. After the death of Josiah who was a righteous king, Judah dishonored God and the commandments. They returned to the treacherous behavior that was more horrible and unfaithful than its sister Israel

    Malcolm once said, “Good education, housing, and jobs are imperatives for the Negroes, and I shall support them in their fight to win these objectives. But while the Negro does not have these objectives, he is nobody.” Here, Malcolm X warns that if African-Americans cannot achieve these three goals, they will never be equal to the white man in society. Similarly, the ancient prophet Amos also told of the immediate troubles when he proclaimed, “Thus says the Lord: for three crimes of Judah, and now four - I will not take it back-because they spurned the instruction of the Lord, and did not keep his statutes; because the lies which their ancestors followed have led them astray, I will send fire upon Judah, and it will devour the stronghold of Jerusalem,” (Amos 2: 4-5). Here, Amos warns Judah that God will send fire upon it for its crimes.

  • Exegesis Of Isaiah 53

    1241 Words  | 5 Pages

    Isaiah 53 should be a very critical prophetic chapter of the Bible when it comes to establishing without ambiguity that Jesus Christ of Nazareth is indeed the Jewish Messiah long awaited for in Judaism. Popular in evangelical circles, this prophecy clearly describes some of what Jesus of Nazareth experienced while here on earth. Contrary to the systematic way the translation of the Word of God has been divided, my belief is that this prophecy began in Chapter 52:13 and continued until Chapter 53:11. Although this passage clearly talks about the suffering messiah Jesus, we know that the Jews in general rejected Him as the Messiah and are still awaiting for the messiah to come although He came 2000 years ago. This prophecy begins in verse 13 to 15 of chapter 52 and describes the Messiah as one who would be firstly wise.

Daniel was the character that was seen as “Empire forecasting prophet”. Without a doubt, Daniel was a translator of imaginings, and from his interpretation, God revealed his plans for the kingdoms which will rise up to supremacy in world history. It is true that Daniel is believed to be the main prophet from Biblical scholars and major reason is that he contained all the important information which God revealed
