    Isaiah 40-66

    Volume 11

    Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture

    Edited by Mark W. Elliott
    General Editor Thomas C. Oden

    No book of the Old Testament is more frequently quoted in the New than Isaiah, and no portion of Isaiah is more frequently quoted in the New than the typologically fertile soil of Isaiah 40–66.

    Many of us feel unsteady, disoriented, even crushed after an endless string of scandals within the walls of a place meant to offer compassion and safety.

    Mobilizing the Church in Service to the World

    by Alexia Salvatierra and Peter Heltzel

    With so many injustices, small and great, across the world and right at our doorstep, what are people of faith to do?
