Isaiah: Here I Am

by B.G. Brainard

When Isaiah saw the Lord sitting on his throne and the seraphim above calling one to another, "Holy, holy, holy is Yahweh Almighty; the whole world is full of his glory," he knew he was a man of unclean lips as were his people. A seraph placed a red-hot coal on Isaiah's lips and declared, "Your iniquity is taken away." Then he heard the voice of Yahweh say, "Whom shall I send?" And Isaiah said, "Send me " The life of the biblical prophet Isaiah is only hinted at within the larger framework of the vision he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem during the reigns of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah. This historical novel imagines Isaiah's life as he preaches to a people of unclean lips knowing they will neither understand nor perceive God's message. Yet Isaiah faithfully preached repentance for years with the support of his family, disciples, and fellow prophets Jonah, Micah, and Hosea, for the hardness of the people's hearts did not preclude a possibility of the salvation of individuals.
