The Book of Isaiah, is a section from
the Bible detailing Isaiah's prophecies. The first
half of the book discusses god informing readers about judgement day.
It begins to mention the abuse the god has received from his jewish
people. God speaks through Isaiah to the people of Judah and they are warned to change their ways and devote themselves to God or to
face the consequences. Later it is written that
Isaiah has made a prediction for the downfall of Judah and many
different countries across the Middle East. Isaiah also mentions the
punishment waiting for the people of Judah. These punishments and prophecies are
very black and white in their descriptions. The second half of the
book discusses prophecies regarding Israel and the birth of Christ.
Isaiah predicts the existence of the Virgin Mary giving birth to
Jesus, and briefly mentions the importance of Jesus in the future.
Also included is the rewards God is offering to people who wholly
devote themselves to him. By the end of the book, Isaiah has mentioned the state of
Israel after Jesus's birth and ends the book saying that all the believers will rise
amongst the rebels. Isaiah's book has made
predictions that have occurred and ones that have yet to occur, The
Book of Isaiah is constantly referred back to by scholars both
religious and secular in regards to predictions and events that occur
even today.
Over all, i like what you've drafted because you give a lot of detail of the book of Isaiah. However, maybe don't spend so much time talking all the little details in the book. Just hit the main points, who wrote it, why, and what its about. Once you do that, your summary will be solid. Other than that though you did a good job.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Stavi. You have a lot specific details here, which makes it very informative but a bit too wordy for a summary. This would be a more solid read if you whittled it down to the main points, kept an example or two to help with understanding, and keep your history.
ReplyDeleteGood job until you lost your way a bit at the end. Telling about how people have used the book in the future is hardly the stuff of a summary.
