It concludes that the closest parallels with Isaiah's description of the king of Babylon as a fallen morning star cast down from heaven are to be found not in any lost Canaanite and other myths but in traditional ideas of the Jewish people themselves, echoed in the Biblical account of the fall of Adam and Eve, cast out of God's presence for wishing to be as God, and the picture in of the " gods " and " sons of the Most High " destined to die and fall.

The roots of Judeo-Christian contemplation of the ways in which God chooses to remain hidden reach back into the biblical depiction of God, for example the lament of the Psalms, " My God, my God, why have you forsaken me ?.... I cry by day, but you do not answer ...." and Isaiah's declaration, " Truly you are a God who hides himself, O God of Israel, the Savior.

This Greek translation " alters or refines the meaning of Isaiah's original Hebrew: where the prophet had talked only of a ‘ young woman ’ conceiving and bearing a son, the Septuagint projected ‘ young woman ’ into the Greek word for ‘ virgin ’ ( parthenos ).

As for Immanuel, " God is with us ", Isaiah might mean simply that any young pregnant woman in 734 BCE would be able to name her child " God is with us " by the time he is born ; but if a specific child is meant, then it might be a son of Ahaz, possibly his successor Hezekiah ( which is the traditional Jewish understanding ); or, since the other symbolic children are Isaiah's, Immanuel might be the prophet's own son.

This theme is most strongly expressed in Isaiah's fourth Servant Song, which describes a new paschal lamb ( Is 53: 7 ) whose life is " poured out " for the " sin of many " ( Is 53: 12 ) in a New Exodus ( Is 52: 11-12 ).

The prescribed readings for the day are Isaiah's prophecy of the birth of the Messiah () and from the Gospel of Luke, the angel Gabriel announcing the birth of Jesus ().

* Prophecies → Passages of Isaiah 40 – 66 refer to events that did not occur in Isaiah's own lifetime, such as the rise of Babylon as the world power, the destruction of Jerusalem, and the rise of Cyrus the Great, which is taken as evidence of later composition.

* Chapters 56 to 66 ( Third Isaiah or Trito-Isaiah ): the work of anonymous disciples committed to continuing Isaiah's work in the years immediately after the return from Babylon.

Isaiah's first significant acts as a prophet occurred when Judah, under king Ahaz, faced invasion from Israel and Aram Damascus ( Syria ) after refusing to join them in a revolt against Assyria, the dominant imperial power of the age.

Ahaz, against Isaiah's advice to seek the protection of God, invited the Assyrians to protect him, turning Judah into an Assyrian vassal.

Isaiah's warning that Judah would meet the same fate as Israel was ignored.

Hezekiah then took Isaiah's advice and threw himself on the protection of God, and Jerusalem was saved.

Chapter 6 describes Isaiah's call to be a prophet of God.

It ends with a visit to Hezekiah by envoys from a rebel prince of Babylon, and Isaiah's words prophesying the Babylonian exile.

Isaiah's narrative in Muslim literature can roughly be divided into three sections.

The first part establishes Isaiah as a prophet of Israel during the reign of Hezekiah ; the second part focuses on Isaiah's actions during the siege of Jerusalem by Sennacherib ; and the third part is primarily focused upon Isaiah warning the people of coming doom.

Muslim exegesis preserves a tradition, which parallels that of the Hebrew Bible, which states that Hezekiah was the king that ruled over Jerusalem during Isaiah's time.

For the unnamed " king of Babylon " a wide range of identifications have been proposed. They include a Babylonian ruler of the prophet Isaiah's own time the later Nebuchadnezzar II, under whom the Babylonian captivity of the Jews began, or Nabonidus, and the Assyrian kings Tiglath-Pileser, Sargon II and Sennacherib, Herbert Wolf held that the " king of Babylon " was not a specific ruler but a generic representation of the whole line of rulers.

Christians interpret Joseph's role as fulfilling Isaiah's prediction that the grave of the " Suffering Servant " would be with a rich man ( Isaiah 53: 9 ), assuming that Isaiah meant Messiah.

Some Christians believe that Isaiah's prophecy, " all they from Sheba shall come: they shall bring gold and incense " (: 6 ) is a prediction of the Biblical Magi bringing gifts of gold, myrrh and frankincense to the newborn Jesus.

Many modern scholars also reject this conclusion, as the statement about Jesus being silent " as if in no pain " seems to be based on Isaiah's description of the suffering servant, " as a sheep that before its shearers is silent, so he opened not his mouth.

Isaiah's vision is repeated several times in daily Jewish services, including at Kedushah prayer as part of the repetition of the Amidah, and in several other prayers as well.

Isaiah's first revelation was also a sight of God ( Isa.

" He affirmed that Jesus Christ, the Son of God and " the one perfect man to walk the earth ," is the " Firstborn of the Father and the only Begotten of the Father in the flesh ," and that He fulfilled Isaiah's prophecy that " his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
