Isaiah
IN THIS LESSON
Chapters 21-22 present a series of prophetic messages focused on the downfall of various nations, offering a sobering reminder of God's sovereignty over all empires. In chapter 21, Isaiah delivers vivid oracles against Babylon, Edom, and Arabia, foretelling their destruction and the fate of their people. Chapter 22 shifts its focus to the city of Jerusalem, where the prophet laments the impending judgment on the city's leaders and people for their misplaced trust and reliance on human strength rather than God. These chapters highlight the consequences of arrogance, idolatry, and the failure to seek God’s guidance, while also underscoring His ultimate control over history and the nations.
