Isaiah for You - (God's Word for You) by Tim Chester (Paperback)

About the Book

Accessible commentary walking through Isaiah to enlarge your vision of who God is.

Book Synopsis

Isaiah can seem intimidating. It's a big book covering an extended timescale, full of unfamiliar names and places. You may be familiar with Isaiah's vision of God's holiness in chapter 6 or his description of the cross in chapter 53. Still, large sections can feel like alien territory.

But the book of Isaiah is full of good news. Forming a kind of bridge between the Old Testament and the New Testament, Isaiah enlarges our view of God, sharpens our understanding of salvation and illuminates our Bible reading. It points forward to Jesus and fuels our vision for the church and our mission.

You can read through this accessible commentary as a normal book, work through it devotionally, or use it as you prepare for teaching or preaching a passage. As you read, you'll...

• Pay close attention to the text
• Glean insights into the original historical, cultural, and biblical context
• Gain clear and grounded application points for Christians today
