Was Israel in captivity while the prophet Isaiah was alive?
Isaiah, son of Amoz, wrote of things he saw during the reigns of Kings Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz and Hezekiah. He therefore began his career around 740 BCE and could have continued for more than forty years from that time. Israel fell to the Assyrians in 722 BCE, so it was still nominally independent, although a vassal state, during his early years. In his later years, Israel was no more, with many of its people transferred to other parts of the Assyrian Empire, where they gradually lost their separate ethnic identity and assimilated into the host cultures. This probably occurred around the mid-point of Isaiah's career as a prophet and writer. The southern kingdom, Judah remained at least nominally independent during the life of Isaiah. However, there were two further, anonymous authors who lived long after the time of Isaiah and contributed to the Book of Isaiah, after Judah fell to the Babylonians and the people were taken into Exile. Because we do not know their real names, these authors are referred to as Second Isaiah (II Isaiah) and Third Isaiah (III Isaiah).
When did the Bible Isaiah live?
Although the exact date is unknown, an estimation can be made. Isaiah was a prophet to 4 successive kings of Judah: Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah.Isa 1:1 The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah.Uzziah reigned for 52 years from 790-739BC, but he was struck with leprousy by God as punishment for trying to usurp the duties of the priests unto himself. This meant he was not allowed public contact, and his son Jotham therefore had to become king. Jotham ruled 750-731BC, so the latest possible year Isaiah could have been a prophet to Uzziah before the co-regency with Jotham is 749BC. Tradition says that Isaiah was cut in two with a wooden saw while he was hiding in a tree-trunk by troops of King Manasseh (695-642BC), so the earliest possible date for his death is 695BC. This makes the minimum time period possible for Isaiah's prophetic life 749-695BC, or 44 years. It is safe to assume he was 30 when he started, because (many years later) the Pharisees would not allow anyone to be a rabbi or a member of the Sanhedrin until they were 30. This would make him a minimum of 74 years old when he died, which is a credible age, and would make the latest Isaiah could be born around about 770BC. (Since the actual date is unknown all this is based on assumptions, but you have to start somewhere).
