The Book of ISAIAH – Volume. 3 The Holy Grantor of Victory (Chapters 36-39)
This third volume in the Patristic Commentary on the Book of Isaiah examines a pivotal moment in the prophetic narrative, where historical drama, spiritual warfare, and divine intervention intersect. Covering chapters 36–39, this section presents the reign of King Hezekiah during the Assyrian siege—an era marked by both miraculous deliverance and tragic human weakness.
Through the eyes of the early Church Fathers and the Coptic Orthodox tradition, we encounter God not only as the Righteous Judge but as the Holy Grantor of Victory, who saves His people when they turn to Him in prayer and humility. This volume includes:
The psychological and theological drama of Sennacherib’s invasion
Hezekiah’s fervent prayers, healing, and miraculous extension of life
The profound lessons of divine rescue and human pride
How God's chastisement and mercy are intricately woven into salvation history
As with previous volumes, the commentary draws from the spiritual insight of saints like St. John Chrysostom, St. Athanasius, and the Desert Fathers, making Isaiah’s words alive for today’s reader—especially those facing spiritual battles, leadership challenges, or personal trials.
