Just when Isaiah's harsh condemnation of idolatry seems relentless, the tone shifts dramatically to God's breathtaking mercy. Dr. John explores Isaiah 44:21-28, where God declares He has blotted out Israel's transgressions like mist and will never forget His covenant with them.

Why do people worship idols when it's so obviously foolish? Dr. John walks through Isaiah 44:9-20, where the prophet exposes the absurdity of idolatry with biting irony.
