A

28-33

28
Q

Judah’s leaders are drunkards like Ephraim’s; they mock Isaiah’s message; their false security is set in contrast to the Lord’s foundation.

A

40-55

41
Q

The Lord is both willing and able to save his people.

A

40

42
Q

The Lord arouses a warrior to do his work; the nations’ response of fearful idolatry is contrasted with Israel’s knowledge of the true God.
