Isaiah

\"Isaiah’s name refers to God’s salvation, and this is descriptive of his message. His ministry spans a period of about 40 years, beginning in the final years of King Uzziah of Judah (Isaiah 6:1) and continuing during the reigns of Jotham, Ahaz and Hezekiah. Isaiah was married to a prophetess, and they had two sons (7:3; 8:3). Their names have specific meanings that relate to the prophetic predictions of their father. Shear-Jashub (7:3) means “a remnant shall return” and signifies the return of a remnant to God after punishment at the hands of their enemies. The other son was named Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz, meaning “quick to the plunder, swift to the spoil,” which seems to refer to the destruction of the allied kings Rezin and Pekah by the Assyrians. According to a tradition in the Talmud, Isaiah suffered a horrible death. He was fastened between two planks and sawn asunder. It’s likely that Isaiah is one of the heroes of faith referred to in Hebrews 11:37. Isaiah is called the messianic prophet because he was deeply motivated and inspired by messages from God that spoke of a time in the future when Israel and all nations would be free from human suffering and sorrow under the rule of the Messiah. The New Testament records that Isaiah “saw His [Christ’s] glory and spoke of Him” (John 12:41).
