Paul and Dan continue a mini-series on the Prophets with an introduction to the first half of the book of Isaiah. They cover the historical background to the book and look at some examples of his message to Judah and the surrounding nations. They aim to demystify Isaiah's complex narrative and encourage listeners to dive into the text themselves.
The connection between the Bible and history is complicated. Should the Bible be treated as objective, literal history or should we see it as all myths? Is it possible to find the truth somewhere between those two extremes? Dan and Paul explore these questions by using one of the ancient kings of Judah, Hezekiah, as a case study.
