The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah. (Isaiah 1:1)
Isaiah, son of Amoz (Isaiah 1:1). The father of Isaiah was Amoz. The name Isaiah means Salvation is of the Lord.
The ox knows its owner and the donkey its master's crib; But Israel does not know, My people do not consider." (Isaiah 1:3)
No animal has ever disobeyed God, rebelled against him, or fought his authority in the way that every single human being has.
When you spread out your hands,
I will hide My eyes from you;
Even though you make many prayers,
I will not hear.
Your hands are full of blood. (Isaiah 1:15)
Hands refer to our actions. We can have all the right words, and yet if our actions don’t line up with our words, it’s only talk. God is not interested in mere words that have no support for actions. These are the kind of prayers that God will not hear.
Learn to do good; (Isaiah 1:17)
Doing good does not come naturally to us; hence we must learn to do good. Doing bad things comes naturally to us because of our fallen nature, which we inherited from Adam.
