??The Future House of God
2 The word that Isaiah son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.
2 In days to come
the mountain of the Lord’s house
shall be established as the highest of the mountains,
and shall be raised above the hills;
all the nations shall stream to it.
3 Many peoples shall come and say,
“Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord,
to the house of the God of Jacob;
that he may teach us his ways
and that we may walk in his paths.”
For out of Zion shall go forth instruction,
and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
4 He shall judge between the nations,
and shall arbitrate for many peoples;
they shall beat their swords into plowshares,
and their spears into pruning hooks;
nation shall not lift up sword against nation,
neither shall they learn war any more.
Judgment Pronounced on Arrogance
5 O house of Jacob,
come, let us walk
in the light of the Lord!
6 For you have forsaken the ways ofa your people,
O house of Jacob.
Indeed they are full of divinersb from the east
and of soothsayers like the Philistines,
and they clasp hands with foreigners.
7 Their land is filled with silver and gold,
and there is no end to their treasures;
their land is filled with horses,
and there is no end to their chariots.
8 Their land is filled with idols;
they bow down to the work of their hands,
to what their own fingers have made.
9 And so people are humbled,
and everyone is brought low—
do not forgive them!
10 Enter into the rock,
and hide in the dust
from the terror of the Lord,
and from the glory of his majesty.
11 The haughty eyes of people shall be brought low,
and the pride of everyone shall be humbled;
and the Lord alone will be exalted on that day.
12 For the Lord of hosts has a day
against all that is proud and lofty,
against all that is lifted up and high;c
13 against all the cedars of Lebanon,
lofty and lifted up;
and against all the oaks of Bashan;
14 against all the high mountains,
and against all the lofty hills;
15 against every high tower,
and against every fortified wall;
16 against all the ships of Tarshish,
and against all the beautiful craft.d
17 The haughtiness of people shall be humbled,
and the pride of everyone shall be brought low;
and the Lord alone will be exalted on that day.
18 The idols shall utterly pass away.
19 Enter the caves of the rocks
and the holes of the ground,
from the terror of the Lord,
and from the glory of his majesty,
when he rises to terrify the earth.
20 On that day people will throw away
to the moles and to the bats
their idols of silver and their idols of gold,
which they made for themselves to worship,
21 to enter the caverns of the rocks
and the clefts in the crags,
from the terror of the Lord,
and from the glory of his majesty,
when he rises to terrify the earth.
22 Turn away from mortals,
who have only breath in their nostrils,
for of what account are they?1

Revelation From God
Author
Isiah is the author, of the Book bearing His name as he discloses in Isa2:1; Isa13:1. We must also see that Isaiah use the title "the Holy One of Israel" and "the Lord of Hosts" throughout the book, even The New Testament confirms the view that Isaiah authored the entire book. The Apostle John attributed prophecies from Is 53:1 as well as from Isa6:9-10 to the prophet Isaiah in Joh12:38-41.
Date
Isaiah was married Isa8:3 and had two sons, Shear-Jashub Isa7:3 and Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz Isa8:3. Some have supposed from Isaiah's commissioning Isa6:1-13 that he was a priest, but no evidence in the book supports this.
The year of Isaiah's death is unknown but it was probably after Hezekiah's death in 686 b.c. and therefore probably in Manasseh's sole reign, 686-642 because Isaiah wrote a biography of King Hezekiah 2Ch_32:32. Isaiah's death would have occurred after Sennacherib's death Isa_37:38, which was in 681 b.c. Since the prophet's ministry began sometime in Uzziah's reign 790-739 b.c. Isaiah ministered for at least 58 years from at least 739, when Uzziah died Isa_6:1, to 681, when Sennacherib died.
According to tradition dating from the second century a.d., Isaiah was martyred by King Manasseh. Justin Martyr (ca. a.d. 100-165) wrote that Isaiah was sawed asunder with a saw Heb11:37.
Structure
The Book of Isaiah is the first of the 17 Old Testament prophetic books not because it is the oldest but because it is the most comprehensive in content and unity.

Purpose
According to the Bible Knowledge Commentary Isaiah’s primary purpose was to remind his readers of the special relationship they had with God as members of the nation of Israel, His special covenant community.
Isaiah knew of the Abrahamic Covenant (Gen12:2-3; Gen15:18-21; Gen17:3-8, Gen17:19) in which God promised that Israel would (a) enjoy a special relationship with Him, (b) possess the land of Canaan, and (c) be a blessing to others.
Isaiah was also aware of the Mosaic Covenant, given Israel at the time of the Exodus from Egypt and repeated by Moses to the generation of Israelites who were about to enter Palestine. Throughout the Book of Deuteronomy God through Moses had promised the people that as members of the covenant community they would be blessed by Him if they lived according to the Mosaic Covenant (e.g., Deut 28:1-14). But He also warned them that if they did not obey His commands and decrees they would experience the curses (punishments) spelled out in the covenant (Deut 28:15-68) including exile from the land (see the chart “The Covenant Chastenings,” near Amos 4:6).
However, because of the Abrahamic Covenant in which God promised blessing on Israel and the world, Moses could confidently affirm that even after the people had been exiled from the land the Lord would someday bring them back to the land of promise and establish them in His kingdom.
So Isaiah was calling the people of Judah back to a proper covenantal relationship with God. He was reminding his generation of the sinful condition in which they were living and of its consequences. God would judge the nation, but He would also eventually restore them to the land (cf. Deut 30:1-5) with full kingdom blessings because of His promises to Abraham.
The purpose of Is 2 is to teach all to Walk in the ways of YHWH Mic 6:8, Rom 8:1-17, Gal 5:16-26, Heb 13:15-21, Jas 3:1-18, 1 Pe 1:13-25, 1 Pe 3:1-22, 1 Jn 1:6-10, or experience YHWH’s wrath Joh 3:18, Joh 3:36, Heb 12:5-8, Rev 2:11-17, Rev 3:19!!!!
