Publisher's Summary:

In Isaiah Part 2, we enter the historical interlude. We learn in Isaiah 1: 1 that Isaiah functions as a prophet during the reigns of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz and Hezekiah, kings of Judah: That is, from 740 686 B.C. During that time, two major historical events occur: 1) Assyrias attack on the northern kingdom of Israel in 722 B.C. and 2) Assyrias attack on Jerusalem in 701 B.C., while Hezekiah is king and Isaiah is prophet.

That attack in 701 B.C.and God miraculously saving Jerusalemforeshadows greater events to come. The defeat of Assyria in 701 B.C. marks the beginning of Assyrias decline as a world power and the rise of Babylon on the worlds stage. Once Babylon defeats Assyria it gets all the territory Assyria conquered, down to the gates of Jerusalem. In 605 B.C. Babylon attacks Jerusalem and does what Assyria failed to do: It conquers Judah and Jerusalem, sending the survivors into exile in Babylon.

Editorial Reviews:

Dr. Bill Creasy of Logos Bible Study uses a literary, historical approach to examine and enliven the bible for modern listeners. Dr. Creasy draws on his studies, travels, and personal anecdotes to vividly depict the works of scripture. He speaks in a pleasant, friendly voice but with authority, frequently incorporating contemporary references. The programs are a lively combination of a sermon and college lecture.

In this episode, Dr. Creasy discusses The Thundering Prophet, "Narrative Interlude" (Isaiah 36: 1-39: 8).
