Isaiah 64

Isaiah looked to the past and recalled time after time when God worked wonders for Israel's benefit. God had taken a nation of slaves and built them into a glorious kingdom. The crown jewel of their nation was the glorious temple in Jerusalem. Then as Isaiah looked to the future he saw God's judgment coming upon unrepentant Judah. A judgment that would culminate with the destruction of the centerpiece of their national identity of God's covenant people. Isaiah wanted to know how God could remain silent as that day of finality approached.
It took me about 3 minutes to read this chapter.
