Rely on Yahweh." It was a call to faith in God's Word that was sounded time and again but seldom heeded. CHIEFLY responsible for Israel's resounding "no" to the prophets' oracles calling for faith in and faithfulness to God's covenant were the kings who succumbed to the siren call of power and security through political alliances which lured them and the nation to destruction and bondage. Isaiah (ca. 742-701. BC) and Jeremiah (627- 585 BC) stood as giants in the long line of prophets who spoke God's Word to the kings in Jerusalem. Greed, injustice, hypocrisy, the same sicknesses that sapped the spiritual strength of the Northern Kingdom during the prophetic ministry of Amos, were epidemic in the Southern Kingdom of Judah when Isaiah was called as a prophet in 742 BC, "the year that king Uzziah died," (Is 6:1). The House of David has reigned con- tinuously if not gloriously in Judah during the period that the history of Israel, to the north, was being written with the blood of murdered monarchs. But God's promise of an eternal dynasty to David's line (2 Sm 7) was interpreted by a majority of his descendents as a guarantee of invincibility even in the face of wanton corrup- tion, and many of Isaiah's oracles were addressed to this distortion. FOR FOURdecades the prophet spoke God's Word to faithless and faithful kings of Judah until the accession of Manasseh, the sacriligious and blashphemous king whose long reign was the low point in the Davidic dynasty. Isaiah's concept of Yahweh as "the Holy One of Israel" dominates his message probably as the result of his inaugural vision of God enthroned in the Temple (Ch 6) surrounded by Seraphim chanting "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts!" "Isaiah (ca. 742-701 BC) and Jeremiah (627-585 BC) stood as giants in the long line Flowing from his overwhelming sense of of prophets who spoke God's word to the kings in Jerusalem."

The prophet's Messianic oracles (7:13-14, HE SPOKE the Word of God to Jerusalem 9:5-6, 11:1-12:6) are among the most beautiful pleading for fidelity to the covenant and warning and most familiar Old Testament passages and of impending judgment (11:1-14).
