Isaiah 43:8–13

Isaiah 43:8–13

Read down to the center, where the pattern turns; then rise back out through its mirror.

  • A. Court assembled — blind/deaf summoned; nations gathered (8-9a)
    • B. Issue announced — challenge to declare former things (9b)
      • C. "Ye are my witnesses", saith the LORD — knowledge, belief, understanding (10a)
      • C'. No God formed before or after; I am the LORD; beside me no saviour (10b-11)
    • B'. Issue settled — declaration, salvation; "ye are my witnesses" that I am God (12)
  • A'. Verdict — YHWH's eternal existence; none can deliver from His hand (13)
