Isaiah 6:3 - Forerunner Commentary

Isaiah 6:3

Isaiah Called to Be a Prophet

1 In the year that ^aKing Uzziah died, I ^bsaw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up, and the train of His robe filled the temple.

2 Above it stood seraphim; each one had six wings: with two he covered his face, ^awith two he covered his feet, and with two he flew.

3 And one cried to another and said:
^a“Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts;
^bThe whole earth is full of His glory!”

4 And the posts of the door were shaken by the voice of him who cried out, and the house was filled with smoke.

5 So I said:
“Woe is me, for I am¹ undone!
Because I am a man of ^aunclean lips,
And I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips;
For my eyes have seen the King,
The Lord of hosts.”

6 Then one of the seraphim flew to me, having in his hand a live coal which he had taken with the tongs from ^athe altar.

7 And he ^atouched my mouth with it, and said:
“Behold, this has touched your lips;
Your iniquity is taken away,
And your sin¹ purged.”
