Subjects covered, for every prophet, include: a discussion of the date, who the prophet spoke to, how the critics have interpreted it, how it relates to history and to other prophets, and its structure and outline. Each chapter includes exercises and essay topics.
First published in the 1920s, the author attempts to provide the reader with a guide to living. He lets his protagonist, called simply the prophet, deliver homilies on a variety of topics central to daily life: love marriage and children, work and play, possessions, beauty, truth, joy and sorrow and death.
In Freedom is Coming! Nick Baines invites you to think about what it meant for people in Isaiah's day to be living in exile, and how the prophet encouraged them to keep their faith alive despite the apparent hopelessness of their situation.
