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. Still,
as interpreted by the fathers, Isaiah presents a message that is
far more soteriological than christological, leading readers to a
deeper understanding of God's judgment and salvation. Isaiah 40-66
provides us with the closest thing the Old Testament has to offer
regarding a systematic theology. The excerpts included in this
volume offer us a rich array of differing styles, principles and
theological emphases from Theodoret of Cyr to Eusebius and
Procopius, to Cyril of Alexandria, Jerome and Augustine. Readers
will be enriched by the wide-ranging selections, some of which are
translated here into English for the first time.
