Isaiah is prophesying about the final demise of Israel as a warning to Judah.

I'm tracking the kings and prophets through the last days of the Israel and, soon after, Judah.

I have been on a long journey through the Old Testament, having just completed Amos and his visions and messages for Israel's final days. Now, according to the Blue Letter Bible chronological reading guide, I'm heading back, briefly, to the Chronicles before heading to Isaiah and Micah.

Amos 7 (Israel)

Amos started the book with prophesies, then sermons or messages. Chapter 7 begins Amos' visions.

Amos 6 (Israel)

Amos has had some bad news for Israel (and Judah) (and some of us). They had forgotten how to do right. And even those waiting for the Day of the Lord were also carrying around idols. He does provide a very narrow path out for a remnant. The messages conclude in Chapter 6 and then the visions begin.

Amos has been bringing his prophesies to the neighboring nations; but now he brings the heat home to Judah and Israel.

Chronologically, I am reading II Kings and II Chronicles and the various prophets who tried to come alongside the rulers and people of the day. Today begins Amos' swing at bat.

Intro to Amos (Israel)

Following the Blue Letter Bible, I am pausing after Isaiah 8 (as well as after II Kings 16 and II Chronicles 28) and reading all 9 chapters in Amos. The shift is from Judah back to Israel and the rule of Jeroboam II.

Isaiah 8 (Judah)

Previously, I read about Isaiah and his relationship with Ahaz in the context of II Kings and II Chronicles. This is why the chronological approach has been helpful to me. I wouldn't have remembered the exact context when reading these books separately. Next we see the early manifestation of Isaiah's prophesy.

II Kings 16; II Chron 28 & Isaiah 7 (Judah)

Isaiah begins with his indictment of Judah's behavior and a prophesy of their future which is also a parallel to the end times. Then we flash back to read about his calling. Now we are back in his historical timeline with the kings of his time.
