The main characters in The Book of Isaiah are the prophet Isaiah, King Ahaz, King Hezekiah, and the people of Judah and Jerusalem. Isaiah prophesies about the coming judgment on Israel, the restoration of God's people, and the future Messiah.
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).
Isaiah primarily preached in the southern kingdom of Judah.
The tribe of Judah was the largest of the twelve tribes of Israel. This tribe was known for its leadership and prominence in the kingdom of Israel.
He lived in Jerusalem, in the kingdom of Judah.

Isaiah was a prophet of God. He preached redemption to the people of Israel and Judah.he was a prophet.Additional Answer:Isaiah was a prophet of God whose book has come to be called the 'Little Bible.' Though Isaiah warned ancient Israel (both the temple priest and the people of Israel), his primary writings are for end-time Israel - the people of God's true Church, specifically the Laodicean Era of His Church.
No, the prophet Amos is not the father of Isaiah in the Bible. Amos and Isaiah were both prophets in ancient Israel, but they lived during different times and had distinct messages. Amos prophesied primarily in the northern kingdom of Israel, while Isaiah's ministry took place in Judah. The two prophets are not directly related in terms of family lineage.

Although nothing is indicated in the Holy Scriptures, he would've only been from 1 of 3 Tribes: Judah, Benjamin or Levi (the priests) seeing that at his time there were only 3 Tribes left that were loyal and/or remnant people of God (Israel in the north turned to idol worshiping). Tradition has it that Isaiah the prophet was from the Tribe of Judah.
Nowadays, Israel is not divided into two kingdoms, but thousands of years ago, Israel was split into two kingdoms called "Yehuda" and "Israel". Both kingdoms were Jewish and both had their own ledership, but only one kingdom, "Yehuda", was oficially ruling the land of Israel and Jerusalem
