Notes: December 21, 2008 – Isaiah 5 & 6

A metaphor and a vision

Isaiah 5

  • God’s vineyard (vs 1-7)
  • A nation full of covetousness (vs 8-10), drunkenness (vs 11-12) and insolence (vs 18-23).
  • A nation that deserves the wrath of God (vs 13-17, 24-30)

Isaiah 6

  • Isaiah sees God (vs 1-4); and
  • he is terrified (vs 5).
  • Isaiah is commissioned to preach (vs 6-8) to
  • an obstinate nation (vs 9-12).
  • Yet, God will save a remnant (vs 13. Cp. Isa 1:9).
