The Message of Isaiah

The Book of Isaiah stands out for its exceptional style, poetic force, and for offering us a glimpse of the hope of the gospel. It tells us how God Himself provides the "redeemed" with a way to achieve holiness and uses imagery that reminds us of the exodus from Egypt and prefigures what Christ made possible on the cross.

The way Isaiah depicts judgment offers the reader tangible joy: destruction leads to construction, the new replaces the old. In this masterpiece by Isaiah, events, both nationally and globally, reveal the hand of God, and the good news he announces constitutes the world's expectation.

Barry Webb invites his readers to penetrate the powerful vision of God's glory and thus understand the wonder of having access to Him. For the author, writing this book was like an unforgettable flight: "I have reached the heavens and contemplated the glory of God, and with new eyes I have seen this world and my place in it."

Author Barry Webb says: “The flight of the eagle is pure magic. There is no narrowness, no noise, other than that made by the wind as it touches the feathers, and nothing obstructs the view. There is nothing artificial about that flight, and in every takeoff and turn it demonstrates the greatness and glory of its Creator. That is why a question arises in my mind: is it possible for you and me to enjoy such a flight? And the brilliant answer is found in the Book of Isaiah: Yes, it is possible! The only requirement is to ‘trust in the Lord,’ believing that His promises are true and that He can (and will) do what we cannot do for ourselves. It says there: ‘Those who trust in the Lord... will soar like eagles.’”
