Biblical scholars say that Isaiah chapters 56-66 were written after the Babylonian Exile, by an anonymous prophet ow known as Third Isaiah, and subsequently added to the Book of Isaiah. Third Isaiah used a rhetorical technique of praise followed by condemnation, followed by praise.
- Chapter 56 opens on a joyous note, saying that those who keep the commandments will be happy. 56:3-8 extends an invitation to all, including the diaspora Jews who have not yet returned and even foreigners and eunuchs, to join in worshipping the God of the Jews.
- Chapter 57 is a reminder not to return to the old pre-Exilic ways, when necromancy was practised and children were sacrificed, rhetorically asking (57:11) whom the people feared that they had turned away from God.
- 58:1 tells the prophet to tell the people of their wickedness, but after this, he acknowledges that they do seek to follow God.
- Continuing this rhetorical technique of praise followed by condemnation (followed by praise), chapter 59 reminds the people that their iniquities have separated them from God, listing some practices to their dishonour.
- Chapter 60 returns to praise mode, telling of a glorious future for Judah.

What does Isaiah chapter 49 mean?
A:The Book of Isaiah, which at first appears to be the work of one person, is considered by most biblical scholars to be a composite work, consisting of contributions from three different authors over a very long period of time.Chapters 40-55 were written by an anonymous author living in exile in Babylon during the sixth century BCE, called Second Isaiah, II Isaiah or Deutero-Isaiah. Chapter 49 should therefore be read in the context of the Babylonian Exile.Second Isaiah knew that the Jews would soon be released to return to their homeland and so, in typical flowery language, announced that God had chosen to deliver them, and that soon it would be their enemies who would be oppressed.
