Isaiah is generally regarded as the greatest of the old testament prophets.

1.) Because he is preeminently the prophet of redemption.

2.) Many of the passages in his book are among the finest in literature. Some modern scholars have studied this poetical prophecy as a botanist studies flowers, dissecting and analyzing them. By use of this scientific method beauty and unity of the book,like that of the rose is almost forgotten as the different parts are pulled to pieces for examination.
