Prophets' Context
- Isaiah's prophecies are pre-exile, offering consolation before destruction.
- Ezekiel's prophecies come post-exile, during the Babylonian captivity.
Dual Interpretations
- Isaiah prophesies about someone from the east who conquers nations, possibly referencing Babylon's king.
- Another interpretation suggests this figure could be Cyrus, the Persian king who freed the Israelites.
Speaking God's Word
- Speak God's word even if people refuse to listen.
- Focus on controlling your actions, not others' reactions.
