We just learned about the Bible Books of Poetry
Isaiah was a prophet who lived 700 years before the birth of Jesus.
A prophet is someone who speaks to God and then tells other people what God said.
Isaiah told God's people that they were in trouble for not listening to him,
and that they were going to be taken over by some other people that would not treat them nicely.
He also talked about a savior that would come one day to save everyone,
and this was 700 years before Jesus was born!
