Isaiah
Chapter
Isaiah is the first collection of prophecy of the four major Hebrew prophets. Judgment to come is fundamental to Isaiah’s teaching. Israel and Judah are to perish but a remnant will survive and a new Jerusalem will rise up as a city of the faithful. It is also in Isaiah that memorable prophecies of Christ’s coming are found.
Isaiah 57
57:1 The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart: and merciful men are taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken away from the evil to come.
