Více o knize

Words swirl around us, and opinions are often expressed without thought or humility. Imagine posting, “Woe is me! For I am lost; for I am a [woman] of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; for my eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts!” (Isa. 6:5). Studying Isaiah is an excellent way to learn humility. The prophet uses “holy” to describe God more than any other Old Testament book and reveals how God can make us holy through Christ’s humility.
