The only Isaiah actually mentioned by name in the Bible is Isaiah, son of Amoz, who lived during the reigns of Kings Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz and Hezekiah. However, the Book of Isaiah is considered to have had three principal authors. The first of these is Isaiah, son of Amoz, who began the book and is sometimes called First Isaiah for clarity. The book was continued much later, during the Babylonian Exile, by an anonymous author now referred to as Second Isaiah, then completed after the Return from Exile by another anonymous author now referred to as Third Isaiah.
No.
Isaiah 1:1 introduces the book as the work of Isaiah, son of Amoz, who lived in Judah during the reigns of the Judahite kings Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz and Hezekiah, early in the seventh century BCE. The Book of Isaiah then omits the 150 year period from Hezekiah to the fall of Jerusalem and recommences with the Babylonian Exile. The remainder of the Book of Isaiah was written in Babylon in the middle of the sixth century BCE and finally after the Return from Exile. The three authors of the separate works that later became the Book of Isaiah are sometimes known as First Isaiah (I Isaiah), Second Isaiah (II Isaiah) and Third Isaiah (III Isaiah). Much of First Isaiah's writing was in the form of oracles, vague comments and predictions that could be interpreted in many ways. Reading them in hindsight, it is almost always possible to link an oracle to a future event in some way. First Isaiah witnessed the fall of Israel, so at the time he wrote his book, this was no longer a prophecy. He did not predict the Babylonian Exile, which was far off in the future, but Second Isaiah wrote of the events in Babylon.
There are scores of comets who's orbits have been determined, and are predicted to return, but the best known one is probably Comet Halley.
Edmund Halley PREDICTED the return of the comet which was later named for him.
