Praise to the Poet

I love the writings of Isiaha, the cadence or rhythm is soothing yet is still like the drumbeat calling us to battle.

The imagery is strong and inspiring. When you catch the imagery and understand the cultural references it reads smoothly, like poetry and draws you into the story.

The story of redemption, of building, of a great time of peace. But first there the dispersal, the destruction, the cleansing. All causing a change of heart.

What beauty! How important the theme and the message and how impressive the wordsmith. I believe both Isiaha and the scribes that translated him had to be inspired to write it.

How beautiful are their words.
