Product Description

Prophecy can be confusing. In a book like Isaiah, historical events are presented out of order and right next to future prophecies without obvious distinctions between the two. Plus, it's full of strange symbols like the sprout that grows out of the root of Jesse. What we need is a guide—someone who will tell us what's historic and what's prophetic, and explain all the strange symbolism clearly and simply. This is what the best preachers do, but you don't have to wait until Sunday's sermon. Encounter the beautiful depth of Isaiah through an enlightening commentary from Alfred Martin that's both straightforward and insightful. You'll gain:

• Important historical background
• Insights from the original language
• Explanations of the prophetic symbols
• And more!

You don't have to go to seminary to encounter God in exciting, new ways through His Word. Discover how much more enjoyable your personal study will be with understandable, quality Bible commentary for everyday life.
