Isaiah 1 "The Beginning from the End" 6/21/2023

What Isaiah is shown here is absolutely amazing.
The one from the east he refers to is a king named Cyrus…who we will learn more about as we move through the next few chapters.
Isaiah writes as if this has already taken place…but it is yet about 150 years in the future.
This is called “prophetic first tense,” which is to write about a future event as if it has already occurred.
Isaih is shown this…which is some 100 to 150 years before Cyrus is even born.
