Description

The book of Isaiah has been a key part of the Old Testament's witness to Jesus Christ since the earliest Christian period. This commentary by J. Gordon McConville offers a substantive and useful exploration of the text, drawing on biblical scholarship and the Christian tradition.

McConville examines each section of Isaiah, showing how the prophetic words are framed to persuade audiences. The commentary includes a fresh translation of the Hebrew text, incisive comments based on the author's translation, linguistic, historical, and canonical insights, concluding reflections, and footnotes addressing technical matters.

Accessible to pastors, teachers, and serious students of the Bible, this volume is an excellent resource for study. Grounded in rigorous scholarship, it is suitable for those who preach and teach, offering a nuanced understanding of the text's theological contributions.
