Isaiah 45:14–19

Isaiah 45:14–19

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

  • A 14-15 — "there is none else, there is no God" / God who hides Himself
    • B 16 — idol-makers put to shame and confounded
      • C 17 — CENTER: Israel saved with everlasting salvation; not ashamed nor confounded
    • B' 17 — "ye shall not be ashamed nor confounded world without end" (positive counterpart to B)
  • A' 18-19 — God who created the heavens and earth; "I am the LORD; and there is none else"
