The Exile is the lowest point in Israel's national story — and yet it is precisely in the darkest chapters that God's voice grows the loudest, promising a restoration that is bigger than anyone imagined.
Discussion Questions
8 questions1.The kingdom established under David and Solomon eventually splits into two — Israel in the north and Judah in the south — and both kingdoms are ultimately conquered and carried into exile. How does this catastrophic outcome make sense in light of the pattern Angie has been tracing throughout the study? What is God doing in allowing this to happen?
2.The prophets are not primarily predictors of the future — they are God's messengers calling his people back to covenant faithfulness. With that in mind, how do you think about the role of the prophets differently? Who in your life plays a similar 'prophetic' role — speaking hard truth in love?
3.Isaiah 53 — the portrait of the Suffering Servant — is one of the most remarkable chapters in the entire Old Testament, written centuries before Jesus was born. Read through it slowly.
a.Which specific verse or image in Isaiah 53 strikes you most powerfully, and why?
b.How does reading this passage through the lens of Jesus' crucifixion change how you receive it?
