The Jewish prophets of the Old Testament period whose names are attached to the record of their ministries in Scripture were indeed a “rare” bunch, “rare” in so many ways.
What we must remember is that each of those prophets addressed the challenges and opportunities of his own specific time.
However, without exception, each of them also was given a message to proclaim concerning events that would transpire long after his own time.
For this reason it can be correctly said that each one of the Old Testament prophets had a dual ministry of forth telling (as in addressing the people and circumstances of his own day) and a ministry of fore telling (as in declaring events reserved for the future, and often the distant future).
This dual role is clearly evident in Isaiah chapter two, the focus of the second in this series of six podcasts taken from the book of Isaiah, a series entitled: “I Saw the Lord: Studies in the Book of Isaiah.” With a touch of levity on a serious subject, we’ve entitled this episode, “The Bigger They Are, the Harder They Fall!” With Bibles open to Isaiah, chapter two, let’s get started.
