Lesson 19: Preparation for our September 3rd Study

Memory verse:  Isa 6:3

In order to be prepared for this week's study read Isaiah chapters 38-39.

Chapter 38 is about Hezekiah's illness and recovery.  His prayer of thanksgiving is very moving.  But then in chapter 39 a number of strange things happen that I have pondered for many years.  (It might help you to get the full picture to read 2 Kings 20:12-21 as well.)  Give some thoughts to the following questions and see what you think:

1.  Are there some things worse than dying young?

2.  Are there some things more important than peace and security at the close of life?

3.  What does it mean to leave a "legacy"?
