An Old Testament prophet named Isaiah foretold many things about Jesus’ life and His Second Coming. In fact, Isaiah is one of the most important books in the Old Testament. It is not only a narrative story, but also a collection of oracles, prophecies and parables. Isaiah, who authors the book, wrote it around 700 B.C. The book Is the first of the Major Prophets as well as the first of the Latter Prophets. Isaiah’s purpose was to bring back the nation of Judah – God’s nation – back to the faithfulness as well as proclaim the coming of the Savior, and His future reign. He brings the message to Judah and Israel of condemnation as well as a message of hope and salvation through the coming of the Messiah, Jesus Christ.
