Research Paper On Isaiah 7-9
Isaiah 7-9 is a popular passage that goes through a few phases of Israel's condition amongst the Syrians and Philistines and also goes through the Messianic prophecy of the Birth of Christ. How do we know this is Christ? Mainly because there are many prophecies that he has fulfilled, and this passage just has three of them. In the Beginning of Chapter 7, Isaiah is recording the plot that the King of Syria and the King of Israel has against Jerusalem. At this time in history, Jerusalem is in the Hands of Judah. Judah is ruled by Ahaz, who is the grandson of Uzziah. King Uzziah was one of the Kings in the genealogies of Christ in Matthew, who also was in reign during the great Earthquake of Judah. Israel is divided into two kingdoms at this point, and Jerusalem was under Ahaz's control in Judah. …show more content…
When Ahaz heard this, his people were afraid and God used Isaiah to foretell these people that this would not take place. Isaiah talks to Ahaz and Ahaz hears from the lord. Ahaz is also told of the birth of Christ in Isaiah 7:14-16 reading, “Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel.” We can tell that this prophecy speaks to Jesus because of the prophecy being fulfilled in Matthew 1:22-23. Throughout the rest of this Chapter God is describing the land in which he is born. Then in Chapter 8, Isaiah is told to go unto a Prophetess and have her give birth to a son named “MaherShalalHashBaz.” Why is this important? Because God then spoke to Isaiah again telling him before his son is born, Israel will suffer unto Assyria for their rebellion. God hides his face from Israel and waits for his disciples to return to him out of Hoy fear and Reverence. God also tells Isaiah that they will stumble in the darkness of this world because of their disobedience to

    Prophet Muhammad Research Paper

    Muhammad was historically significant in many ways. “...Muhammad, was born in the bustling city of Makkah around A.D. 570.” (pg 271). Muhammad was a man born in Makkah, a city in Arabia, around the year 570 A.D. He was raised by his uncle, since he was orphaned at a young age. “By age 13 he was working as a camel caravan worker.” (notes). At the young age of 13, Muhammad already had a job as a camel caravan worker. “When Muhammad was about 25 years old, Kadijah proposed marriage to him.” (pg 271). When Muhammad was 25, his boss, a 40 year old woman named Kadijah, asked him to marry her, which brought him from the poor class to the elite class. “...in A.D. 610, Muhammad experienced a revelation, or vision.” (pg 272). In the year 610 A.D., Muhammad…

    Judaism Significant Person: Isaiah 20/20

    Isaiah’s contribution to the development and expression of Judaism was heavily influenced by the political and religious context of his time. In the midst of political and religious instability in Judah’s history, Isaiah, was a recognisable source of hope and guidance, and paved the way for the expression of modern Judaism. The evident political and religious instability, was to be vastly influenced by Isaiah’s works. Isaiah took an active role in the development and expression of Judaism in his time, through his influence in the guidance of the aristocracy, providing guidance even for the kings. “Then the word of the LORD came to Isaiah: Go and tell Hezekiah… ‘I have heard your prayers and seen your tears… I will deliver you and this city from the hand of the king of Assyria” (Isaiah 38:4-6) Isaiah, as the mediator between God and his people, forespoke guidance both politically and religiously, redirecting the Jews back to Mosaic Law. As a result, Isaiah instilled within the hearts of Jews faith in God, in a time of suffering and religious apathy.…

    Throughout church history, orthodox scholars and theologians from various positions have come to the agreement that the life, ministry, death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ completed Daniel 9.

    Messiah in Psalm 22

    Walter Kaiser warns against using the New Testament to reinterpret passages of the Old Testament while discounting the meaning of the original author. Kaiser states that the meaning established by the original author is important and to ignore it “is to make nonsense out of the revelation…” He does acknowledge, however, that while the author may not have a sense of writing prophetically, the Holy Spirit promulgates the underlying theme of the “Promise”. This approach provides a basic framework with which this passage may be viewed.…

    Isaiah highlighted for me just how ugly sin really is. Througout Isaiah, we are shown a people who are so busy willingly chasing after the flashy lures of sin that they could not look up, to the goodness and glory of God. Sin blinded and and bound the people, and they refused to be made well. It can be hard to understand how Israel could be set so stubbornley in their rebellion.…

    Chapter 1 Samuel 17 Research Paper

    In the passage 1 Samuel 17, it explains that David had trust in God. He went into battle without armor and just a single stone. This represents that God is always with us wherever we go. We have to have more introverted trust in what God does in us and we don’t just need armor or a weapon because God is our shield. David was just a shepherd, but when he went to deliver food, it was just a stalemate. No one would battle the giant so he told his brothers and David as the extrovert he was said, “What will be done for the man who kills this Philistine and removes this disgrace from Israel? Who is this uncircumcised Philistine that he should defy the armies of the living God?” (1 Samuel 17:26)…

    Rachel And Daniel Essay

    Daniel always remembered to praise and thank God for all that he had done for them. Daniel did not speak often of the coming of Christ. But he did picture it by demonstrating his faith in Christ. Daniel even prayed and fasted for other people’s sins. He asked for God’s mercy upon them and himself. Daniel was a man of many gifts and we see all these fruits in the prophecies that he gives. God gave Daniel understanding in all visions and dreams. Daniel interpreted a dream that pointed to the end of times when Christ will come again. In that way, Isaiah and Daniel are alike in prophesying Christ’s coming; also in prophesying Christ’s destruction of the wicked nations. Nebuchadnezzar had the dream that pictured Christ’s coming and Daniel interpreted it with the gifts that he was given from God. Because of his abilities he was given a high place in the government. Daniel was chosen by god to tell of future events. Some very important prophecies that Daniel gave was the prophecy of the four world-ruling empires, the prophecy of the kingdom of God, and also the prophecy of the little horn. That was the prophecy of the four beasts the represented the four would-ruling kingdoms. Even though Daniel prophesied pretty early in time his prophecies are still yet to be…

    Salvation in the book of Isaiah comes in many forms. Salvation is referenced in deliverance, in this case from the Assyrians. Also, salvation is personal (“my salvation,” 12:2; “the Lord will save me,”38:20). “Since Isaiah’s idea of salvation connected with the concepts of redemption, deliverance, righteousness, and justice, it is necessary to take up these ideas also to get a complete picture of what the prophet meant by the words “save”, “savior”, and “salvation” (Old Testament Survey pg 384).…

    Book of Isaiah

    Isaiah's ministry began in the reign of Uzziah (Is. 1:1); Uzziah died with Judah prosperous and stable. However, the prophecies of Isaiah 1-5 speak of a time when Judah was breaking up and under threat of imminent invasion; they must therefore have been given at some time after Uzziah's reign. Yet 6:1 speaks of Isaiah having a vision in the year Uzziah died. As is common with the major prophets, Isaiah isn't a chronological prophecy; it's a compilation of various prophetic events given at various times and that compilation isn't necessarily in chronological order. I'd therefore suggest that chapter 6 is the initial commissioning of Isaiah. He realized his call to be a prophet, but he needed to be convicted first of his own sin and inadequacy, and of the greatness of the Lord. He was then commissioned to go out and preach: "Hear!" (Is. 6:9)- which is exactly how he begins his preaching in Is. 1:2. So I suggest that all his prophecies were preceded by the vision of chapter 6. He saw "the Lord high and lifted up", enthroned in the temple, with an earthquake, the temple filled with smoke, the doorposts that held up the veil being shaken (with the implication that the veil falls; 6:4). Note how Rev. 15:5-8, building on this passage, has the veil being removed, the Most Holy opened, and the temple filled with smoke. This sends the mind straight to the rending of the temple veil at the crucifixion and the earthquake (Mt. 27:51). The Lord "high and lifted up" (6:1) is a phrase that occurs later in Isaiah (52:13), concerning the crucified Lord, lifted up and exalted "very high" by the cross. John 12:37-41 tells us that Isaiah 6 is a vision of the Lord Jesus in glory; and in this passage John quotes both Isaiah 6 and 53 together, reflecting their connection and application to the same event, namely the Lord's crucifixion. So it is established that Is. 6 is a vision of the crucified Lord Jesus, high and lifted up in glory…
