The book of Isaiah is without doubt one of the most important books
in the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament, as evidenced by its pride of
place in both Jewish and Christian traditions as well as in art and
music. Most people, scholars and laity alike, are familiar with the
words of Isaiah accompanied by the magnificent tones of Handel's
'Messiah'. Isaiah is also one of the most complex books due to its
variety and plurality, and it has accordingly been the focus of
scholarly debate for the last 2000 years. Divided into eight
sections, The Oxford Handbook of Isaiah constitutes a collection of
essays on one of the longest books in the Bible. They cover
different aspects regarding the formation, interpretations, and
reception of the book of Isaiah, and also offer up-to-date
information in an attractive and easily accessible format. The
result does not represent a unified standpoint; rather the
individual contributions mirror the wide and varied spectrum of
scholarly engagement with the book. The authors of the essays
likewise represent a broad range of scholarly traditions from
diverse continents and religious affiliations, accompanied by
comprehensive recommendations for further reading.
