Verses 1-21

CHAPTER 9

The Message of Hope Concerning Israel’s Future and the Impending Judgments

1. The Messiah, His Name, His rule, His kingdom (Isaiah 9:1-7) 2. Judgment upon Israel (Isaiah 9:8-12) 3. The impenitent nation (Isaiah 9:13-17) 4. The wrath of Jehovah (Isaiah 9:18-21) 5. Unrighteous judges and three questions (Isaiah 10:1-4 Mat_4:12-25 quotes the opening verses of this chapter. This applies to His double advent. The first and second coming of the Lord are wonderfully blended together in Isaiah 9:6-7. The nation in impenitence and God’s wrath against them has had its past and present fulfillment. It is not yet exhausted. It looks forward to the coming day of wrath.
