Isaiah writes about the stormy period marking the expansion of the Assyrian empire and the decline of Israel. Isaiah unveils the full dimensions of God's judgment, warning Judah that her sin would bring captivity at the hands of Babylon. Yet, following round after round of warnings, Isaiah turns to the promise of God's comfort, forgiveness and restoration. The restored earth and the restored people will then conform to the divine ideal, and all will result in the praise and glory of the holy God of Israel.
