Episode: Commissioning a Prophet
Description: Isaiah had a vision around the year 740 BC that terrified him—he was transported to the throne room of God and saw the Lord on His throne.We discuss the entities Isaiah saw there, the seraphim, and compare them to the lamassu of Assyria, the sphinxes of Egypt, and the cherubim of the Bible. We also explain why Isaiah’s journey to the divine council was a key aspect of his commission as a prophet.
