Best Answer

The Book of Isaiah was written by two, and possibly three, different authors separated in time by more than a century.

Isaiah, son of Amoz, was the first author and is therefore now known as First Isaiah. He wrote most of Isaiah chapters 1-39 and was concerned with external threats to the Kingdom of Judah. He tried to warn of the risk of Assyria and advise the kings in dealing with it. He believed that the problems facing Judah were caused by God because of the moral backsliding of his fellow citizens. He tried to convey God's ability and desire to protect Judah.

Second Isaiah wrote during the Babylonian Exile and Third Isaiah wrote during the immediate post-Exilic period.

How did Isaiah preach his message?

A:Isaiah, son of Amoz, wrote of things he saw during the reigns of Kings Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz and Hezekiah of Judah. He therefore began his career around 740 BCE and could have continued for more than forty years thereafter. Israel still existed when Isaiah began to preach, being destroyed by the Assyrians in 722 BCE, but Isaiah was really only concerned with the kingdom of Judah and the social and political problems he foresaw in that kingdom. He preached to the Judahites, who later became known as the Jews.

Did the prophet Isaiah foresee the day that God would come and judge his people?

A:Isaiah foresaw no such thing. The Book of Isaiah is considered by most scholars to be composite and can be divided into three parts: Chapters 1-39 contain, with numerous additions, oracles of Isaiah, son of Amoz, also known as Isaiah of Jerusalem or First Isaiah, who lived in the eighth century BCE.Chapters 40-55 contains the words of an anonymous sixth-century-BCE prophet living in exile in Babylon, now known as Deutero-Isaiah or Second Isaiah.Chapters 56-66 are from the post-Exilic period, continuing of the work of Deutero-Isaiah. This writer is known as Trito-Isaiah Third Isaiah.First Isaiah did preach doom, the proximity of punishment and the remnant concept, but only in the context of his own times. Second Isaiah wrote that the punishment was past, suffering was over, and deliverance was at hand. Second Isaiah knew that the conquering Persians would soon allow the Jews to return from Exile in Babylon, which the Jews had believed to be a punishment from God. This talk of judgement and doom related to the gathering war clouds in the time of First Isaiah and then the anticipated deliverance in the time of Second Isaiah.
