Some Facts About Isaiah – Part 2 关于以赛亚书的一些事实 -- 2 Isaiah 9:6-7 “For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the
government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.”
Isaiah 53:6 “All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.”
Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 B. Messages concerning Immanuel (7:1—12:6).
After King Ahaz of Judah is threatened by Syria and the northern kingdom of Israel, Ahaz unwisely appeals to Syria for help despite Isaiah’s warning against it.
1. Invasion against Ahas. Yahweh’s sign: a Child’s birth (7:1-25). Ahaz and the people are for help. Isaiah brings an encouraging word to Ahaz about Judah’s not being conquered, but Ahaz turns to Assyria for help instead. Ahaz’s bear a Child, who would be Immanuel (God with us, 7:14).

Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 “If you will not believe, surely you shall not be
established” (7:9). Jesus spoke this same principle (John 12:36) at a time when the people around Him had just heard the Father speak from heaven. The issue for kingdom people is to believe and be established! Signs and wonders will appear because Jesus said they would. Time and again, however, He declared the importance of simply believing in Him, regardless of what we see around us. If we would advance the kingdom of God, it must be on the basis of what we believe rather than what we see (Rom. 4:17). Take care to strengthen your kingdom influence through a believing lifestyle.

Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 2. Assyria, the Lord’s instrument (8:1-22). The
imagery of three children is used to tell of the fall of Damascus and Samaria. Not the prophetic emphasis of each of the names of the children: (a) Shear-Jashub, 7:3(“a remnant shall return”); (b) Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz, 8:1-4 (“quick to plunder, swift to the spoil”); and (c) Immanuel 7:13-14 (“God with us”). Ahaz and the people chose Assyria as their source of help rather than God. This unwise action would be met with a flood of Assyrians who would overwhelm Judah. However, because of Immanuel, the nation would not be obliterated by the “flood.”

子的意象是用来告诉大马士革和撒玛利亚的倒台。重视每个孩子的名字是预言:( a)剪切雅述, 7:3 (“余剩的返回”) ;( b ) 瑪黑珥沙拉勒哈施罷斯 8:1-4 (“擄掠速臨搶奪快到”)及( c )以马内利7:13-14 (“神与我们同在”)。亚哈斯和人民选择了亚述作为帮助的来源,而不是神。这不明智的行动 , 亚述人会压倒犹大人。然而,因为以马内利,国家不会被抹杀。

Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 “Seek those who are mediums and wizards,
who whisper and mutter” (8:19). These words hold a frightening potential, if they are ever followed. The source of the “whisper” and the “mutter” is directly linked to the demonic. These utterances will only destroy the person who seeks them. If there is anything of the occult in your background, follow wholeheartedly the example of the believers at Ephesus (Acts 19:19-20), so that the word of the Lord will grow and prevail mightily in you!

Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 3. A great light, God’s wonderful Child (9:1-7). Isaiah
introduces the Messiah as one who is the Light in the midst of the darkness of judgment. The hope of His coming and presence would ensure liberation for the nation from all of its oppressors. Messiah’s humanity and divinity are set forth in the terminology of this passage.
Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 “And the government will be upon His shoulder” (9:6). The
entitlement to rule that was given to Jesus Christ the Messiah has been transmitted to His body, the church (Matt. 16:18; 28:18-19). As citizens of the kingdom we have been authorized and anointed to move forward, advancing His kingdom under His authority.
Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 4. God’s judgment upon Israel and Assyria (9:8—10:19).
Verse 9 introduces pride as the reason for God’s judgment to be meted out against Israel through Assyrian and Philistine invasions. Whereas Assyria had been an instrument of God to chasten His people, God will not
withhold His judgment from them as well. 4 。神的审判呼吁以色列和亚述( 9:8-
Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 5. The remnant of Jacob, Branch of Jesse (10:20—11:16). “In
that day” depicts the time when the faithful remnant would return, at the day of the Lord. Historically there was a fulfillment of this, but what Isaiah is seeing also has a future fulfillment, which will occur in Palestine. The righteous rule of Messiah and of the kingdom He establishes are the conclusion of this section.
Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 “The Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon Him” (11:1-3).
The coming Davidic ruler, whose name is Immanuel (7:14), will judge the people with righteousness and fairness (11:3-5), by bearing the effectual qualities of the Spirit’s work in His ministry—wisdom, understanding, counsel, might, knowledge, and the fear of the Lord (v.2). All these expressions of the Spirit were present within Jesus’ life for anointed ministry (Luke 4:14), for “God was with Him” (Acts 10:38). When we receive the Spirit’s fullness, Jesus’ life becomes alive in us—God is with us—and His ruling authority flows through us in multiplied ministries and gifts (1 Cor. 12:4-11).

Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 6. Songs of praise to the Lord (12:1-6). “In that
day,” the day of the Lord, there shall be sung a united song of redemption as the people together recognize Him for who He is.
“And in that day you will say ‘Praise the Lord’” (12:4-6). This entire chapter demonstrates the kind of worship and praise that accentuates the life of kingdom people. Singing and shouting are shown to be instruments of spiritual warfare. And special attention is paid to the focus of worship: “the Holy One of Israel is in your midst!”

Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 C. Messages of judgment upon the nations (13:1—
24:23). The central message of this section is that God’s sovereignty is unmistakable and His people should understand that the world was His at creation and continues to be His now and forever.
Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 “How you are fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the
morning!” (14:12). This familiar verse opens a section that has a dual application. One is a historical reference to Babylon, and the other is a type of Satan. Two things are important to see: “Lucifer” was the devil’s name when he was a part of God’s heaven. It is a regal name of splendor, but he is no longer worthy of the name. He is now Satan, and in our dealing with him we should never give him the dignity of the heavenly name. Second, Scripture informs us that it was Satan who weakened the nations. When we engage in spiritual warfare, these verses clarify the nature of our Adversary.

Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 “In that day… the Lord will punish on high the host
of exalted ones” (24:21). The spiritual war is brought to the forefront in these verses. The prophetic significance perhaps is best seen through the pen of Paul in 2 Corinthians 10:5. The day when Isaiah is speaking of prophetically is “today,” when all hell appears to be breaking loose around us. At these times, warfare requires a confronting and casting down of the enemy when it exalts itself against the Most High God. Our boldness will come from realizing that God Himself will punish the enemy.

Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 D. Messages of judgment, praise, promise (25:1—27:13). 1. The Lord’s deliverance, the kingdom age (:1-12). The
end of the tyranny is declared a particular reference to the conclusion of death and pride. Additionally, the reference to “wonderful” and “counsel” in verse 1 should be compared to the Immanuel prophecy of chapter 9.
Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 2. The Rock of Ages and the resurrection (26:1-21).
Whereas the overthrow of the Godless faction was discussed in the previous chapter, we now come to the description of the peace that comes to those who remain faithful. This is signified in the metaphorical description of a well-secured city.
Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 “In that day this song will be sung” (26:1-4). Isaiah
is speaking futuristically about the restoration of Israel as well as the “day of the Lord.” The “day of the Lord” holds great portent for every believer in Christ. As ones who have experienced the entry of the kingdom in part, we are the ones who then can sing this song. The passage goes on to talk about walls of salvation and open gates (60:18). The song of the Lord is a song of praise based on the salvation He has provided. As ones who enjoy the fruits of salvation, let us enter into His presence through the open gates of praise.

Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 3.Doom of oppressors, Israel restored (27:1-
13). No longer is God’s wrath against His vineyard (5:6). God is always more interested in restoring than destroying, as demonstrated in His disposition toward Israel.
Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 “He shall cause to take root…and fill the face of the
world with fruit” (27:6). The promise of restoration wipes away the earlier disappointment of an unfruitful vineyard (5:1-7). Now the Lord is planting anew, watering daily (v. 3), clearing briars (v. 4), and promising expansive fruitfulness (v. 6). The picture is that of the Messiah, the true Vine (John 15:1-8), extending His disciples as fruit-bearing branches to the world. The fruit is the Lord’s doing, yet He asks participants to come and be willing to be planted. Believers who are pliable before the Spirit—yielded to His direction and dynamic, willing to be stretched and sent forth—will bear much fruit.

Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 “ 將來雅各要扎根、以色列要發芽開花.
Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 E. Woes to unbelievers and immoral in Israel (28:1—33:24). 1. Woe to drunkards and scoffers (28:1-29). Once again the
sins of Israel in Isaiah’s day reveal how vulnerable the nation is to the hand of Assyria waiting to overtake them. The leaders come under special attack (7); they have misled rather than faithfully led the people.
Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 (28:11-12) The Apostle Paul adapts this passage in 1
Corinthians 14:21 and refers to it as a statement from the Law. He challenges the Corinthian believers to recognize that the Old Testament context from which he takes his quote served as a judgment against those who would not hear the message of the prophet. In the New Testament context, the application is much the same, directed at the hard-heartedness of believers.
Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 2. Woe to hypocrites in Zion (29:1-24). “Ariel” stands for Mt.
Zion/Jerusalem. It will be attacked and crushed, but those who do it themselves will be destroyed, because they only pay Him lip-service. But there is coming a day when the ones who have been deaf and blind to His message will hear and see and once again obey and fear Him.
Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 3. Woes to those who trust in Egypt (30:1—31:9). Judah has
entered a pact with Egypt and thinks that she is secure against Assyria. Isaiah has warned against this kind of thing. And when it comes to the time of living up to her side of the pact, Egypt does nothing while Assyria invades Judah (chapters 36-37). Note the grace of God in that the very one they would not trust is the One who calls them one more time to come back to Him (31:6).
Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 4. About the coming King and His reign of peace, mingled with
assorted woes (32:1—33:24). Looking far into the future, Isaiah sees a time of lasting peace, justice, and righteousness as a result of an outpouring of the Spirit of God on His people. But before the King comes, the existing evil must be done away with and the people shaken out of their complacency.
Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 “The Spirit is poured upon us… and the wilderness
becomes a fruitful field” (32:15-18). The rule of the messianic King is linked to the ministry of the Spirit, whose outpouring turns barren wasteland into fruitful forest. As water penetrates and permeates dry ground, so the Spirit indwells and fills thirsting hearts—and fruitfulness replaces fallowness. The Holy Spirit establishes Christ’s rule by saturating our lives with His presence and power. Thus Jesus becomes real to us, and all that He is and does can impact our lives. This includes such graces as justice and righteousness (v. 16), peace, quietness, and assurance (v. 17)—evidences of the King’s establishing His order and rule.

Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 F. Summary (34:1—35:10). 1. Judgments upon ungodly nations (34:1-17). This
passage is apocalyptic, suggestive (through symbolic language) of the Battle of Armageddon and the ultimate destruction of the Gentile world power. It concludes with a divine promise that Israel will possess and inhabit the land (:16-17).
Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 2. Joy and blessing to God’s people (35:1-10). This
chapter brings to conclusion the various “woes” that began in chapter 28. The restoration is a complete one impacting the geography, climate, and people of Israel. Verse 10 is the capstone of this passage, reflecting the ultimate expression of joy for the redeemed.
Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 “Behold, your God will come with vengeance, with
the recompense of God” (35:3-5). The coming of the Lord will be purposeful, bringing to an end the destructive works of darkness and meting out His justice in the interest of His children. One of the clear indicators of the certainty and imminence of His return is the presence of the kinds of things described in the succeeding verses; when the kingdom is ministered with power and understanding, and blind eyes and deaf ears begin to be opened, we can enthusiastically declare the Second Coming of Jesus.

Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 II. God’s dealing with Hezekiah 36:1—39:8. God’s deliverance of Judah (36:1—37:38). With
unsurprising arrogance, the Assyrian army challenges the Lord and demands from Hezekiah the surrender of Judah.
God’s healing of Hezekiah (38:1-22). With Isaiah’s announcement of impending death, Hezekiah turns to God and pleads for God to remember him. The prayer is heard, and God’s promise to Hezekiah is for an additional fifteen years of life, during which he would see deliverance from the Assyrians.

04/21/23 44
Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 “I have heard your prayer…I will add to your
days fifteen years” (38:5). According to 2 Kings 20:3, Hezekiah walked faithfully before Yahweh with a loyal heart. Evidently, his terminal condition was not the result of sin in his life. His appeal, made on this basis, was considered by Yahweh, and fifteen additional years were granted to him. Believers praying about sickness and disease should consider the possibility of the reversal of things that have been declared terminal. All things are possible to him who believes.

Content of the Book of Isaiah - 2 以赛亚书的内容 - 2 God’s censure of Hezekiah (39:1-8). Hezekiah
falls victim to his own foolishness and pride when he displays his wealth and power to visitors from Babylon. Isaiah rebuked him, and he in turn responds positively to rebuke.
C. 神谴责希西家( 39:1-8 )。希西家表示他自己的愚蠢和骄傲,他显示自己的财富和权力,给从巴比伦来的访客。以赛亚责备他,而他又积极响应责备。
