Reseña del editor:

The publication between 2000 and 2004 of Joseph Blenkinsopp's 3-volume Anchor Bible commentary on Isaiah marked a significant development in Isaiah studies. Many of the articles and books now published in the field cite Blenkinsopp - evidence of how his commentary is influencing and helping shape the future direction of Isaiah studies. In A Light to the Nations twelve of today's leading scholars on the book of Isaiah contribute essays exploring distinct issues that arise from critical study of the text. The essays as a whole reflect the highest echelon of Isaiah studies. Each essay acknowledges and comments on the exegetical contributions of Blenkinsopp, and the references to this influential scholar provide coherence and distinction to the collection.
