Temporada 1
Isaiah 1 read by David Alley, followed by comments and prayer. In Isaiah 1 we delve into the Biblical prophets with the most famous of them… Isaiah. After reading we hit controversy straight away, because Isaiah made so many future predictions that experts cannot believe he could have been writing before they happened, so a theory that multiple people wrote Isaiah, and some of them wrote much later has emerged. This video will debunk that and demonstrate there was just one person called Isaiah, a true prophet of the Lord.
Song of Solomon 8 read by David Alley, followed by comments and prayer. In Song of Solomon 8 the shulamite bride wishes that Solomon was viewed as her brother so that she could cuddle him in public, and then take him indoors for much more romantic and private things. After considering this, the book then warns younger readers to be careful not to cross the line before marriage. This video has more to say about that. This video ends with a summary of the book, and also a personal revelation that I (David Alley) had while studying to make these videos about the meaning of own name and the meaning of what that means for us all.
