This week on The Study Podcast, Dr. Paul Wegner and host Tyler Sanders discuss the time jump that occurs between Isaiah chapters 39 and 40, encouragement as a major theme in the book, and whether God was able and willing to deliver the Israelites from Babylonian captivity (hint: yes) and how that rescue will occur (hint: Cyrus).
