Explore one of the Bible’s greatest poems, and embrace its divine wisdom on transforming tragedy into victory.
Though Isaiah 52-53 typically get the most attention, the entirety of Isaiah 40-55 should be revered as one of the greatest poems contained within the Bible. At the time it was written, Israel was in exile, living in ruins due to its own disobedience. Isaiah 40-55 tells its story, and how God chose to save Israel from its tragic state.
In a mere 15 verses, we’re introduced to:
A remarkable picture of God as both the Creator of Heaven and Earth, as well as the covenant God of Israel
The context for the so-called “Suffering Servant” section, which explains that God intends, through the servant, to make all things new
His way of turning tragedy into victory—a critical recurring focus of the overall Biblical narrative, and a major eventual influence on the New Testament writers
