The study attempts to examine the role of tradition in the teaching
of Isaiah with a view to discerning the basis of the ethics
presupposed by the prophet. The view that Isaiah's ethical
pronouncements were dependent upon the legal, covenantal and wisdom
traditions of Israel is discussed, and the possibility of a direct
dependence on the oracles of his contemporary, Amos, is examined.
Davies shows that the whole question of the influence of tradition
on the thought of Isaiah is fraught with problems.
