Reading Isaiah: An Approach

The author while teaching the book of Isaiah for many years has found that people have a difficult time understanding him. This book is designed in response to this difficulty. First, one must understand that Isaiah is mostly poetry. The approach in this book is to lay out each poem as poetry. We can write a poem in English as a sonnet which follows a strict structure. The structure of Isaiah's poetry is called chiasmus and in chiasmus ideas are repeated. This book lays out each poem and indicates the parallel ideas. Thus instead of reading what seems to be unorganized ideas, the reader reads the poems of Isaiah as an organized whole.
