Mato Zovkić
Sažetak
This is a conference paper offered to a large audince in the Jewish
Community of Zagreb on April 6, 1995. The author presents
contemporary Jewish and Christian consensus on the Book of Isaiah
as embracing the oracles of three different prophets from about 740
BC to about 520 BC. The historical Isaiah, son of Amoz, performed
his ministry in Jerusalem from 740 BC to about 700 BC under
Davidic kings Ahaz and Hezekiah. He preached justice and peace for
ali in the name of God as Israel's Holy One. During last decade of the
Babilonian exile (550-540 BC) Deutero-Isaiah was called to console his fellow exiles and to announce a new exodus. Trito-Isaiah was a prophet of returnees who struggled for renewal of their destroyed
capltal in 538-520 BC. Ali three of these religious and cultured figures
preached God's transcendence, peace with justice for Israel and
gentile nations and they emphasized universal touch of Israel's
Yahwistic monotheism. Literary form and Jewish background of the
four Servant songs in Deutero-lsaiah permit an individual and
collective interpretation of this mysterious figure. Rabbi A. Zaoui
applies Is 53,7 to Jewish victims of the holocaust in the second world
war.
