Description
"Isaiah lived in a time astonishingly like ours -- a time of immense violence, social upheaval, and gross neglect of the poor. In the great prophetic tradition, he intervened directly in political and diplomatic events. Like our age, his was one of whetted swords and rusted plowshares. Then the oracle came to him: Swords into plowshares! Simultaneously social biography and biblical commentary, Berrigan's newest book is a tour de force that brims with conviction. A must-read for anyone seeking to apply biblical truths to contemporary life; for anyone who wonders, What does Isaiah have to say to us?" -- From Introduction.
