Isaiah 40

Isaiah 40 offers comfort to the Israelites during Babylonian exile, announcing the end of their suffering and proclaiming YHWH's incomparable power and sovereignty over all creation.[1][2] The chapter calls Israel to remember YHWH's faithfulness in rescuing them, promising that those who trust in YHWH will renew their strength and mount up with wings like eagles.[1][5]
