Assyria Is King of the Hill

Isaiah began prophesying in the seven forties, and so he was around when the northern kingdom eventually fell to the assyrians in seven 21. He was also there when the southern nation called judah, and its capital is jerusalem,. But when judah and jerusalem, they survived in assyrian attack 20 years later, in seven o one, i think the book of isaiah will make more sense as you read it. Isaiah's roll was addressing the crisis of the moment for israel's survival.
