Latter-day Saint Book of Isaiah study

Overview

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is conducting a ‘Come, Follow Me’ scripture study curriculum focused on the Book of Isaiah.

Initial lessons covering Isaiah 40–49 and 50–57 emphasized messianic themes and the role of Jesus Christ. Church leaders, including President Henry B. Eyring and the late President Russell M. Nelson, provided commentary regarding prayer, the gathering of Israel, and temple construction.

Subsequent discussions regarding Isaiah 50–57 have focused on themes of redemption, perseverance, and the power of the atoning sacrifice. Leaders such as President Dallin H. Oaks and Sister Kristin M. Yee have addressed the necessity of following God’s plan despite potential conflict, while analysis of the text has highlighted the concept of voluntary suffering and divine resolve.
