The entire study aimed to deepen our comprehension of the oracles as a source of redemption for Israel and the judgment envisioned for the Israelites themselves. It is vital to understand why, contrary to what experts perceive to be salvation, Israelites are the ones who face Yahweh's judgment. As a result, Isaiah's theological messages will be established via the oracles. Not only did Isaiah of Jerusalem foretell the impending Day of the Lord, in which countries would be punished for their crimes and the covenanted remnant would survive, but he also predicted the arrival of the messianic monarch and the summons of all nations to Yahweh's sovereign authority. Thus, the narrow focus of Isaiah's message to the Israelites' salvation could be questioned.
