What you should know about the book of Isaiah

[Sexton Blake]

Although the book of Isaiah claims to have been written by Isaiah the son of Amos (1:1), most Bible scholars consider it to be a composite book, written by several authors over a period of several centuries. It consists of three books: First or Proto-Isaiah, Chapters 1-39, written in the 8th century BCE; Second or Deutero-Isaiah, Chapters 40-55, written in the 6th century BCE during the Babylonian Exile; and Third or Trito-Isaiah, Chapters 56-66, written by an anonymous author after the exile.
