How does that compare with God's ideal for His people? (Also read Deuteronomy 26:18,19; 2 Corinthians 5:18-21; 1 Peter 2:9) !"#$%%%&'%8% % 23 24 !""#$%$&$'"(")*+$,-./"01$ 23,2,4$ 2+.).5$%6%7869$ $ '5"$:*;/$3.<"+$ $ 4. Why, instead of letting Judah suffer the same fate as Sodom and Gomorrah, would God spare a few survivors? (also read Genesis 19:15-29; Deuteronomy 32:39; Isaiah 10:20-22; Joel 2:32; Romans 9:27-29, 11:5) Day Three: Read Isaiah 1:10-31 1. a. Why is God displeased with Judah's religious observances? b. How is that relevant to us today? 2. What eight things does Judah need to do to set things right? 3. Using a dictionary, define: Regret ______ Remorse ______ Repentance ______ b. Which was the Lord telling Judah to do? 4. What is God's invitation to them then? Give the verse. 5. What will happen to those who continue to rebel?

What must you "cast away" so the Lord alone may be exalted? (See v 20). 4. What exhortation is found at the end of this chapter? Day Six: Read Isaiah 3:1-4:1 1. What losses will Jerusalem suffer? 2. 2 Kings 24:10-16 tells when the prophecy was fulfilled (586 BC). What specific things and people were "removed from Jerusalem and Judah" just as Isaiah prophesied? Read Isaiah 4:2-6 3. After the description of judgment we read in Isaiah 3:1-4:1, what promise is given in 4:2? 4. Who/what is the branch? (See also Jeremiah 33:15).
