''Synopsis:'' Isaiah (יְשַׁעְיָהוּ "Salvation is the LORD") was a major prophet in the [[Old Testament]]. He was the son of [[Amoz]], and the author of the [[Book of Isaiah]].
In [[Isaiah 1]] the people are accused of only lacking knowledge of God.
The people are also accused of oppressing the poor in [[Isaiah 3]]
Isaiah, however, does take a message of [[forgiveness]] to the people. [[Isaiah 1:18]] contains the very well known and beautiful words of God's forgiveness.
