Abstract
Donald W. Parry’s new translation of the book of Isaiah draws from the doctrines of the Restoration, as well as from the earliest Hebrew manuscripts found in the Dead Sea Scrolls to preserve and illuminate the original meaning of this sacred text. This books features Speaker Identification, which allows the reader to know whose voice is speaking in every verse of Isaiah. This volume provides a thorough introduction to help readers gain some background and context to Isaiah. And finally, this translation features textual notes which will give insight into the Hebrew behind certain English words, and provide some insights found in the Dead Sea Scrolls.
Donald Parry explains, “The book of Isaiah is an exceptional, one-of-a-kind book—both in its presentation and in its message of the Savior Jesus Christ and His Atonement. Moreover, the book of Isaiah is astoundingly wonderful because it presents the direct speech (the actual words) of the LORD Jesus Christ throughout. In point of fact, the LORD speaks more than two hundred times in Isaiah. Truly, Isaiah is an extraordinary work.”
NOTE: This book will be serially published in conjunction with the 2022 Come Follow Me Isaiah curriculum.
