Isaiah 1

Isaiah receives a vision from YHWH indicting Judah and Jerusalem for rebellion, spurning his laws, and rejecting correction, leaving their land in ruins. YHWH promises to purify the remnant like lye, judge the wicked, and restore the faithful who obey, contrasting their corrupt sacrifices with true righteousness.[1]
