The Isaiah Problem
There is no problem!
There
have been some claims of multiple authorship of the book of Isaiah. A division
of the book into 1st (Isa 1-39) 2nd (Isa 40-55) and 3rd
(Isa 56-66). But Isaiah is a unique & united book:
- Christ
& the Apostles quote from 1.2.3. Isaiah and attribute it to him.
(Joh 12:37-41, Rom
10:16-21,
Mat 3:3, 12:17-21)
- The
Septuagint contains no hint of multiple authorship
- The
Dead Sea Isaiah Scroll (1QIsa)
contains no hint of multiple authorship.
-
Josephus attributes the whole book to Isaiah.
- Talmud
attributes the whole book to Isaiah.
- The
Book of Ecclesiasticus testifies of the unity of Isaiah. (Sir 48:20-25)
-
Pseudepigrapha suggests the unity of Isaiah;
-
Ascension of Isaiah
-
Martyrdom of Isaiah
- In
literally terms it’s very much harmonious; function prefixes and expressions.
- Not
even a hint of multiple authorship in ANY scripture of ANY faith!
-
Not even a single secular
source argues such a theory until ca. 1000CE!
