Isaiah

Isaiah is a prophet in the Hebrew Bible and the Quran, and the eponymous book of the Bible is attributed to him. In Hebrew, his name is written as ישעיהו (Yeshayahu), which means "Yahweh is salvation." In Arabic, he is known as اشعياء (Isha'ya). Isaiah is often referred to as the "Prince of the Prophets" in Jewish tradition. He is believed to have prophesied during the 8th century BCE, primarily in the Kingdom of Judah, and his messages addressed both the immediate issues of his time and future eschatological themes. The Book of Isaiah is divided into three sections, often referred to as Proto-Isaiah (chapters 1–39), Deutero-Isaiah (chapters 40–55), and Trito-Isaiah (chapters 56–66), with the first section traditionally attributed to the historical Isaiah, while the authorship of the latter sections is debated among scholars. Isaiah's prophecies include messages of impending judgment and eventual redemption, with notable passages such as the "Suffering Servant" (Isaiah 53) and the vision of universal peace (Isaiah 2:2-4).
