Season 3: Episode 94
“Unto Us a Child Is Born”: Was Isaiah Talking about Jesus?
Date Aired: 12/30/2024
The prophet Isaiah lived in the eighth century BCE, yet his writings are quoted throughout the New Testament and especially around Christmas. Who was the historical Isaiah? And who (or what) was he writing about when he prophesied the birth of a king seven hundred years before Jesus? For this special holiday episode, Helen and Dave are joined by Daniel Stulac, a Christian scholar of the Hebrew Bible who approaches the book(s) of Isaiah in both their historical and theological contexts.
