It was of him that the prophet Isaiah had spoken when he said: “A voice of one crying out in the desert, ‘Prepare the way of the Lord, make straight his paths.’”
-
that what had been said through Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled:
-
to fulfill what had been said by Isaiah the prophet: “He took away our infirmities and bore our diseases.” The Would-be Followers of Jesus.
-
This was to fulfill what had been spoken through Isaiah the prophet:
-
Isaiah’s prophecy is fulfilled in them, which says: ‘You shall indeed hear but not understand, you shall indeed look but never see.
-

-
And as Isaiah predicted: “Unless the Lord of hosts had left us descendants, we would have become like Sodom and have been made like Gomorrah.” Righteousness Based on Faith.
