โฆ Synopsis
The strength of this book lies in Westermann's ability to let the oracles found in Isaiah 40-66 address the concrete issues of their time, the 'situation on the ground', and then, to allow these words to speak powerfully into our present context. It is here that his careful, gentle approach to theology shines, as his scholarly reading of the text helps anchor the meaning embedded in the word.
