Isaiah Cleansed and Commissioned
Isaiah 6:1-13
Isaiah 6:1-13
God's holiness revealed
1 In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lofty; and the hem of his robe filling the temple. 2 Seraphs were in attendance above him; each had six wings: with two they covered their faces, and with two they covered their feet, and with two they flew. 3 And one called to another and said,
“Holy, Holy, Holy, is the LORD of hosts;
the whole earth is full of his glory.”
Isaiah's repentance
4 The pivots on the thresholds shook at the voices of those who called, and the house filled with smoke. 5 And I said;
"Woe is me! I am lost, for I am a man of unclean lips;
yet my eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts!"
His cleansing and commission to preach
6 Then one of the seraphs flew to me, holding a live coal that had been taken from the altar with a pair of tongs. 7 The seraph touched my mouth with it and said, “Now that this has touched your lips, your guilt has departed and your sin is blotted out." 8 Then I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” And I said, “Here am I; send me!" 9 And he said, "Go and say to this people:
‘Keep listening, but do not comprehend;
keep looking, but do not understand.’
10 Make the mind of this people dull,
and stop their ears,
and shut their eyes,
so that they may not see with their eyes,
and listen with their ears,
and comprehend with their minds,
and turn and be healed.”
11 Then I said, “How long, O Lord?" And he said:
“Until cities lie waste
without inhabitant,
and houses without people,
and the land is utterly desolate;
12 “until the Lord sends everyone far away,
a vast is the emptiness in the midst of the land.
13 “Even if a tenth part remain in it,
it will be burned again,
like a terebinth or an oak
whose stump remains standing when felled”
The holy seed is its stump.
