Martin Luther regularly talked about how important the book of Isaiah is for understanding our faith in context. What Isaiah and Jeremiah masterfully do is set the expectation for the longed-for Savior.  Light is coming…but what kind of light?  What kind of judgment will the Jews and Gentiles see?  What does hope look like for Israel, and is that the same hope for the nations?  Isaiah’s teachings were incredibly progressive and shocking for his day – and they help us see even today God’s vision for his Epiphany church.
