Bound in the original blue leatherette (imitation leather), stamped in bright gold. From the dust jacket: "Here, at last, is an exciting and thoroughly readable book which provides a verse-by-verse commentary on Isaiah, one of the most important books in the Bible. Part I presents the incredible story of Isaiah himself. The reader not only becomes acquainted with the sensitive and scintillating personality of this prophet, but also discovers the unfolding of 2,700 years of kaleidoscopic future history as Isaiah saw it in prophetic vision. Part II of this book makes a most unique contribution by presenting for the first time in this much detail, a comprehensive verse-by-verse commentary on the entire book of Isaiah. Hundreds of passages which have previously seemed obscure or confusing are treated with remarkable clarity and insight in this book. W. Cleon Skousen made a lifetime study of the Bible and the reader will soon appreciate why his lectures on Isaiah proved so highly popular... In this book, the reader may be surprised to learn how much of Isaiah's writings were devoted to prophecies concerning our day...". Second Edition. Hardcover.

About About Books

About Books (Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and OP books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail-order catalogues, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of over 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialties listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole. If you wish to visit us to examine specific titles, please provide 24 hours notice and we will make them available for your inspection. Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please, only between the hours of 8am and 10pm (west coast time).
