Summary "The Expositor's Bible: The Book of Isaiah, Volume 1" by George Adam Smith is a biblical commentary written in the early 20th century. This scholarly work examines the text of the Book of Isaiah, providing historical context, thematic analysis, and interpretations of the prophecies found within it. The author emphasizes the relevance of Isaiah's messages in relation to the moral and spiritual conditions of both ancient and modern audiences. At the start of the volume, the introduction sets the stage for a closer exploration of Isaiah's prophecies, outlining the structure of the commentary and the reasoning behind the chronological arrangement of the texts. The opening portion delves into the character of Isaiah's prophetic witness—highlighting themes such as divine judgment, the need for ethical living among the people, and the contrasting ideals of faith and political reality. Smith illustrates Isaiah's complex relationship with his society while asserting the ongoing significance of these ancient words, arguing that the moral teachings resonate profoundly with contemporary readers, invoking a call to reflection and repentance amidst societal challenges.
