We begin a study of the Book of Isaiah that will cover the three terms in 2025. It is both a big book in size and also in influence. It is one of the chief books among the Jewish prophets and was used extensively for “proof texts” by early Christianity with its “messianic” passages. Other parts are much less well known such as the Oracles Against the Nations. It is also a controversial book with very different interpretations put on the texts, and debate about the date of the work and whether it is the product of a single author or of many. The course will explore 2-3 chapters per week and compare the interpretations of four scholars who take very different approaches to this fascinating work
