10/16/2026 – Day 013 – Isaiah – Chapters 7 – 12 / Post 2 of 2 – Keil-Delitzsch commentary
Whoa, a new discovery – Keli & Delitzch Old Testament commentary! What a find! This one comes highly recommended, particularly for long established life long learners in Biblical studies. Their commentary includes quite a few Jewish words to enrich the commentary that much further.

And this will take you directly to Isaiah 7, allowing you to toggle forward, chapter by chapter:
A prior posting is “06/15/2024” , if you want to search key to it. I still heartily recommend J. Alec Motyer’s book “Isaiah” commentary. I will be using it as well in this 12 week friday study through the Book of Isaiah. A joyful note – The Book of Isaiah is like taking a drink of water from a fire hose. It will take you back and forth from Isaiah’s day to end times prophecy. Just a short excerpt here from Motyer’s book – pg. 18 under “(a) History and faith:
“Isaiah is the Paul of the Old Testament in his teaching that faith in God’s promises is the single most important reality for the Lord’s people; this is the heart of chapters 1 – 37. He is the ‘Hebrews’ of the Old Testament in his proposal of faith as the sustaining strength of the Lord’s people in life’s dark days: this is the heart of chapters 38 – 55. He is also the James of the Old Testament in his insistence that ‘faith works’, proving itself in obedience: thus chapters 56 – 66. Behind all this lies history through which he lived and future events as he envisaged them.”
