Which Prophet whose message was primarily about the exile lived 150 years before that exile?
The Book of Isaiah is primarily about the Babylonian Exile, although the prophet Isaiah lived 150 years before the Exile. Scholars long ago solved this puzzle. They say that only chapters 1 to 39 were really written by Isaiah of Jerusalem, with numerous later additions. Because of other authors, Isaiah is often called First Isaiah or Proto-Isaiah. Chapters 40 to 55 record the words of a sixth century prophet living in exile in Babylon, called Deutero-Isaiah or Second Isaiah. Finally, chapters 56 to 66, from the post-Exilic period, are either a continuation of the work of Deutero-Isaiah or written by one of his disciples, now known as Trito-Isaiah or Third (III) Isaiah. Scholars say that there are striking stylistic variations and differences in vocabulary between I Isaiah and II Isaiah. First Isaiah's vocabulary is limited and his utterances are designed for delivery to specific audiences. Second Isaiah's work is more uniform and lyrical in style, more hymnic in quality, and more extensive in vocabulary. His chapters form a unity of thought and emphasis centred in the restoration from Babylonian captivity.

Are writings in the Book of Isaiah chapter 40-18 and 40-28 agnosticism?
Isaiah chapters 40-55 record the words of a sixth century prophet living in exile in Babylon, called Second (II) Isaiah, or Deutero-Isaiah. The Babylonian Exile was a peiod of intense scrutiny of Judaism's religious beliefs. In this opening chapter of his original work, since merged into the book by Isaiah son of Amoz, Second Isaiah muses about the nature of God. This is not agnosticism, but merely an introduction to what the author will say.
