3 authors from 3 completely diferent periods of Judean History intaglio Aug 2012 #22

The translated quote from Isaiah that you include has a lot of the same cbayer Aug 2012 #6

Handel uses several exclusively Old Testament texts--and this is one. nt Thats my opinion Aug 2012 #8

Handel used Isaiah's words. SarahM32 Aug 2012 #9

Please. Let's be accurate. SarahM32 Sep 2012 #57

Again, apologetics is not just Christian, Isa is not the word you used intaglio Sep 2012 #59

Again, that's not relevant and avoids the issue. And ... SarahM32 Sep 2012 #60

Again you are speaking of "The Book of Isaiah" as if it is a singular production intaglio Aug 2012 #34
