Yeshayahu 7-9
Matan Al HaPerek
Neta ShapiraThe series of prophecies in perakim 7-9:6 accompany King Ahaz during a critical political crossroads as Assyria dangerously threatens Israel’s national security. What does Yeshayahu demand of Ahaz? Why does Ahaz find it so difficult to comply? And what is Yishayahu's prophecy following the Assyrian conquest?
King Ahaz – Abandoning God
Rabbi Alex IsraelAfter two generations of kings who upheld God's worship unequivocally, we encounter Ahaz - a king who is attracted to everything Assyrian. He looks to Assyria to offer his country military backing against Israel and Aram's alliance, disregarding an explicit prophetic directive from Yishayahu. In the religious sphere, he transforms the Beit HaMikdash into an Assyrian shrine.
