Passages outside of chs 13–23 that express inclusivity towards the nations
View through CrossRef
In this chapter, the passages that sound positive towards the nations in the book of Isaiah outside of chs 13-23 are surveyed and discussed in the order of their presumed date of composition. A particular interest in the positive future for the nations began to take a meaningful place in the book through the introduction of 2:2-4 in the exilic period. Various aspects were added to the vision of 2:2-4 at different periods such as: 1) compassion towards the nations that had experienced divine judgement in a way comparable to Israel; 2) the nations’ subservience towards Israel in the new world-order; 3) visions about lowered cultic boundaries between Israel and the nations; and 4) Zion becoming one of many places of YHWH’s dominion. Of these, the first two aspects (with greater emphasis on the first) were what our hypothesized late-exilic passages in chs 13-23 have in common.
