Isaiah 29: Ariel of Judah, from Lion to Prey, Dust to Resurrection -- 2019/10/28 - a podcast by KFUO Radio

Rev. David Boisclair, pastor of Faith and Bethesda Lutheran Churches in North St. Louis County, Missouri, joins host Rev. AJ Espinosa to study Isaiah 29.

“The blind receive their sight and the lame walk, lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear, and the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.” With these words, the Lord Jesus quotes, summarizes, and expands chapter 29 of Isaiah. These metaphors originally described “Ariel,” the besieged city of Jerusalem that was like prey before the Assyrian army. Yet God worked “wonder upon wonder” to humble mankind on both sides of the city walls.God graciously formed humanity from the dust of the ground, like a potter shapes clay. He humbles us that He might reshape us into the form of the Son of David. He brings our loud bragging down to the ground “like the voice of a ghost” that we would shout with joy together on the day of the resurrection.
