Episode notes
Vision Tied To Real History
- Isaiah 6 is anchored to a real historical moment: the year King Uzziah died, placing the vision in the 8th century BC.
- That context frames Isaiah as a prophet to Judah during rising judgment and calls to repentance across Israel.
Throne-Room Worship Connects Scriptures
- Isaiah sees the Lord 'high and exalted' with seraphim singing 'Holy, holy, holy,' which connects throne-room imagery across Scripture.
- That heavenly worship scenes link Isaiah's vision to Revelation and to the person of Jesus as the visible revelation of God's glory.
Encounters Change People, Not Guarantees
- A direct encounter with God's glory is transformative but does not guarantee belief for everyone.
- Danny Strange argues the Spirit gives eyes to see and conversion depends on the Spirit, not mere spectacle.
