Brilliant, courageous, uncompromising, this prophet declared that the year of the LORD had come and God's people needed to either step up, or stand down. Indeed, when Isaiah spoke, kings trembled. But too often, when Isaiah speaks today, God's people have trouble hearing. Why? We often miss the larger context. In The Epic of Eden: Isaiah, Dr. Sandra Richter takes participants back to the eighth century BCE. This ten-week study explains Israel's religion and economy, explores the definition and role of the prophets, and helps us to apply the message of this great champion of the faith to our lives today."--Publisher UR - https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=3110613 ER -
