	A final thematic goal that Isaiah constantly leans toward throughout the writing is the establishment of God's kingdom on earth, with rulers and subjects to who strive to live by the will of God.

		+
		+	==Chapters 1-6==
		+	Chapter 1 is kind of a preface, similar to section 1 in the Doctrine and Covenants. David J. Ridges has an outstanding book mentioned in the Additional Teaching materials that helps deal with the imagery that is foreign to most people who read the Book of Isaiah, and it is a valuable way to understand some of the imagery. Chapter 1 also deals with the latter-day temples established in the "tops of the mountains."
		+
		+	Chapter 3 introduces ''chaismus'' where Isaiah poetically repeats major themes.

 ==Historical Setting for Isaiah==
 Isaiah lived during the late eighth and early seventh centuries BCE, which was a difficult period in the history of Jerusalem. He was part of the upper class but urged care of the downtrodden. At the end, he was loyal to King Hezekiah, but disagreed with the King's attempts to forge alliances with Egypt and  Babylon in response to the Assyrian threat.

 Isaiah lived during the late eighth and early seventh centuries BCE, which was a difficult period in the history of Jerusalem. He was part of the upper class but urged care of the downtrodden. At the end, he was loyal to King Hezekiah, but disagreed with the King's attempts to forge alliances with Egypt and  Babylon in response to the Assyrian threat.
 Isaiah prophesied during the reigns of four kings -- [[Uzziah]] (Azariah), [[Jotham]], [[Ahaz]], and [[Hezekiah]]. Legend has it that he was martyred during the reign of [[King Manasseh]], who came to the throne in 687 BCE.  That he is described as having ready access to the kings would suggest an aristocratic origin.
-This was the time of the divided kingdom, with Israel in the north and Judah in the south. There was prosperity for both kingdoms during Isaiah’s youth with little foreign interference. [[Jeroboam II]] ruled in the north and [[Uzziah]] in the south. The small kingdoms of Palestine, as well as Syria, were under the influence of Egypt. However, in 745 BCE, [[Tiglath-pileser III]] came to the throne of [[Assyria]]. He was interested in Assyrian expansionism, especially to the west. Tiglath-pileser took Samaria and a lot of Galilee in 732. [[Shalmenezer V]] (727-722) and then, [[Sargon II]] (722-705) attacked Samaria. [[Samaria]] fell in 722, this marking the end of the Northern Kingdom of Israel forever, as its population was taken into exile and dispersed amongst Assyrian provinces. It is as a result of this exile that reference is made to [[Lost Ten Tribes]] of Israel. Egypt recovered to a degree around the end of the century and Babylon exerted some independence as well. Because of this, Judah and other states rebelled against Assyria, only to have Sennacherib (705-681) invade and capture 46 Judean towns.  Isaiah reports that Jerusalem was spared when God miraculously struck down the Assyrian army plundering it.
