Isaiah Review

This book is one of the harder books to write.
I’ve just finished reviewing my notes for the Book of Isaiah. He represents the pinnacle of Hebrew prophetic literature, so very otherworldly. You can just imagine Jesus saying, “How shall I describe the Kingdom of Heaven?” We know Isaiah was one of His favorites, quoting him so often. With the depth of his talent, we know Isaiah still hardly scraped the surface because Eternity is simply beyond human language and thought.
When your spirit is alive and well, and sensitive to such things, reading Isaiah can wear you out. Your mind reels with the depth of expression, the density of thoughts in so few words. Your body is quickly exhausted trying to keep up with the heavy demands. I’m physically tired.
I can’t count how often I had to get up and do something just to give my body a rest from the intensity as I worked back through my notes on the chapters of Isaiah. Naturally, I reviewed the Scripture text of each chapter to insure I hadn’t missed something God wanted me to say. I’m afraid my poor attempt to capture things will never rise to the original. My prayer is those who read the resulting book will be equally torn, because if the flesh dies not, the spirit cannot rise closer to Heaven.
I’m hoping to have the manuscript ready over the weekend. The chapter notes on my static website will be changed after checking the grammar one last time.
