Our readings begin with Isaiah 6, the story of a vision by which the prophet is called to God's work in the year that King Uzziah died. Chapters 7, 8, and 9 deal with Ahaz and his stubbornness, and use that as a basis of a prophecy concerning the coming Deliverer, the Child which "shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace." Chapter 10 is a prophecy against the Assyrian; 11 of better days for Israel to come, in which Christ should reign; 13 and 14 are prophecies of Babylon, rising from the earthly king of Babylon to him who has inspired Babylon in all her wickedness, Lucifer, the "day-star," the "son of the morning." The readings of the week close with the prophecy against Moab, one of the oppressors of Judah.

The psalms of this week are intensely practical. Many of the world's greatest Christians, seeing themselves in the light of the cross, have on their knees prayed Psalm 51 into their own experience.
