The book of Isaiah is one of the most significant works of the Old Testament, especially for Christian readers. Its oracles have shaped the cultural imaginations of countless generations, inspiring preachers, artists, musicians, and politicians. This biblical book offers prophetic reflections on and responses to the actions of monarchs and nations during a series of political changes and crises in Israel. With a focus on seeking to understand the text in its ancient context, this commentary is particularly written for those who seek guidance in preparing materials for Christian worship and study.

Industry Reviews

“This concise and well-informed commentary focuses steadfastly on drawing out the theological, social, and religious themes in the text. Indeed, most sections include additionally some wider hermeneutical reflection. An obvious grasp of academic questions is never allowed to intrude, so that ministers and others wanting introductory guidance for Christian application will find here just what they need.”
—H. G. M. Williamson, University of Oxford

“Michael Thompson has already done a great service to the church (and more widely) by making available the fruits of Old Testament scholarship to a nonspecialist readership. Here he ably steers his readers through the complexities of Isaiah 1–39, with its different types of material and implied contexts. He helpfully highlights expressions of hope amid words of judgment, a message not just for ancient Judah but one which includes worldwide and long-term perspectives.”
—Adrian Curtis, University of Manchester
