Studies in Isaiah
Parts 1&2
Join our Arad, Israel based Instructor, Ariel Berkowitz, in the course Studies in Isaiah. This class is an expositional study of the biblical Book of Isaiah. Students will pay particular attention to the historical backgrounds of this book of biblical prophecy, looking to ascertain, as best as possible, what these words might have meant to the original listeners in ancient Israel.
In this course, students will learn some of the main points and themes of Isaiah as well as grasp the importance of knowing the historical, geographical, cultural, and linguistic backgrounds when studying any book of the Bible. The class will discuss any appropriate application to today’s world. Although, the student will be encouraged to ascertain his/her own personal applications, as the Spirit of God enlightens.

“This is a Bible course. That means that the primary text for our study is the Bible. As most of us know, no one interprets the Bible perfectly. All of us who study the Bible, try to interpret it, and attempt to teach it to others will make mistakes. That, of course, includes this instructor! I will make mistakes. I do not claim to understand this precious book perfectly. However, I am willing to be corrected. When you share your alternative interpretations, please do so with grace, mercy, and kindness! That is how we are to always teach each other, especially when we gather around God’s Word.”
