As we work through the Book of Isaiah, we are increasingly seeing Christ's kingdom come into focus. Today, we look at Isaiah 7, we're going to study a spectacular prophecy that we usually talk about the miraculous birth of Jesus and how we know that, indeed, Jesus is the long-awaited King of the Jews. 

DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS:

1.    Verse 1 mentions King Ahaz? What was he and what kind of king was he?
2.    In verses 1 & 2, what was the setting that was troubling Ahaz? What was Ahaz’s response in verse 2? 
3.    What was the gist of the Lord’s words for Ahaz in verse 4-9? Why do you think the Lord would have this message for Ahaz? 
4.    If the Lord were to give such a practical promise to you, what would be your response? From your study of the next few verses, what was Ahaz’s response (specifically verse 12)? This seems like it might be a righteous response, why wasn’t it? What in his character produced this kind of response? 
5.    What reply does the Lord give to Ahaz in verses 13 to 16? What was the gist of this prophecy? Who was the near fulfillment of this promise? Who is the ultimate fulfilment? How was He a fulfillment of these prophecies?
6.    Read over the rest of this passage, what kinds of things does the Lord promise to Ahaz? Would these be fulfilled in Ahaz’s days? According to the podcast, when would they be fulfilled? 
7.    The podcast mentions that Isaiah’s son Shear-jashub means “the remnant shall return”. What might be the significance of Isaiah bringing Shear-jashub to this meeting with Ahaz and then giving these prophecies? 
8.    When you think of the desolation that Judah was going to experience, what kind of hope would these promises give to those people in the exile? What kind of hope does it give to us today?
