About a hundred years after the life of Isaiah, God's people would be taken into exile in Babylon. Knowing that this would happen, the prophet writes words of encouragement to the future exiles, reassuring them of God's presence and love. These promises are fulfilled in an even greater way for us who have faith in Christ.
