5 As a result of Israel and Judea's sins, their cities had been burned and laid to waste. In Isaiah 1:18 (NIV), although their sins were scarlet, what did God offer to change their sins to be like?
Answer: white as snow

"'Come now, let us settle the matter,'says the Lord. 'Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow;
though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool." (Isaiah 1:18)

One of the toughest stains to remove from clothing is blood. Shed blood is also a result of injury. However when God was pleading with His people, He told them He would change their sins white like snow and wool. They would no longer be something that brought pain and destruction to others, unlike in the past where they had caused destruction of their own people and cities. Instead He would change them into something clean that also brought comfort to others.

God left them an additional promise:
"If you are willing and obedient, you will eat the good things of the land;
but if you resist and rebel, you will be devoured by the sword.
For the mouth of the Lord has spoken." (Isaiah 1:19-20, NIV)

7 In chapter two, Isaiah gave a prophecy about the mountain of the Lord in the last days. What did he say about it?
Answer: Peoples from other nations would come to the mountain.

The 'mountain of the Lord' can also be read as Mount Zion. The last days may indicate after the arrival of the Messiah. However, the message implied that faith in the Lord would be not for Judah and Israel alone but for Gentiles as well. The passage went on to declare a time of peace in the last days as 'nation will not take up sword against nation'. (Isaiah 2:4)

9 Isaiah deeply mourned the loss when a good king died. However during this time, Isaiah saw a vision of a great king lifted high on a throne with angels around crying, "Holy". Who was the king whose robes filled the temple, in Isaiah 6 (NIV)?
Answer: The Lord Almighty

Isaiah wrote in his book, "In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord, high and exalted, seated on a throne; and the train of his robe filled the temple. Above him were seraphim, each with six wings: With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they were flying. And they were calling to one another: 'Holy, holy, holy is the Lord Almighty; the whole earth is full of his glory.'" (Isaiah 6:1-3)

Kings often sewed strips of cloth from the robes of other kings they had conquered in battle. The result was a long robe or train, that followed behind them when they were honored among the people. The Lord Almighty stood in the temple with a robe that filled the building where He was sitting. He was a great king that had won many victories and was exalted higher than any other king Isaiah had known.

This was the beginning of Isaiah's vision of God sending him to be a prophet to His people. Isaiah was so awestruck at the glory and presence of the Lord, he was afraid and realized he was unclean. An angel took a coal from the altar and touched his lips. When God asked, "Who shall I send", Isiah's first response was, "Here am I! Send me!"

God told Isaiah to go and preach. When Isaiah asked Him for how long, God told him until the cities had been destroyed.
