Appendices To The Companion Bible
in the New Testament. This Is Appendix 80 From The Companion Bible. The
prophet Isaiah is quoted or referred to some eighty-five times in the
New Testament. But several passages are cited or alluded to more than
once; so that sixty-one separate passages are referred to in these
eighty-five New Testament citations.
Of these sixty-one passages in Isaiah, it will be
noticed that twenty-three are from the alleged "former"
part of Isaiah (chapters 1-39), and are cited thirty-two times; while
thirty-eight (the larger number) are cited from the alleged "latter"
part (chapters 40-66) which is most called in question by modern
critics. These sixty-one passages are cited eighty-five times.
The following table exhibits the whole; and the
evidence hereby afforded, as to the unity of the authorship of Isaiah,
may be added to that already given in Appendix 79 :-
(The alleged "former" part)
(The alleged "latter" part)
The
eighty-five citations or allusions are distributed as follows : In
Matthew there are nine; Mark, six; Luke, five; John, five; Acts, five;
Romans, eighteen (eight from the "former" part,
and ten from the "latter"); 1
Corinthians, six; 2
Corinthians, four; Galatians, one; Ephesians, two; Philippians, one; 1
Thessalonians, one; 2
Thessalonians, one; Hebrews, two; James, one; 1
Peter, five; 2
Peter, one; Revelation, twelve (five from the "former"
part, and seven from the "latter").
Twelve books give six direct quotations.
Eighteen books contain eighty-five allusions to
Isaiah.
Only seven books out of twenty-seven have none.
The greater part of the New Testament is concerned
with establishing the genuineness and authority of the book of the
prophet Isaiah, and its one authorship. (See Appendix 79.) |

WATCHMEN
BIBLE STUDY
GROUP
hosts several archives of Bible studies such as these by the Watchmen Bible Study Group. Although we are not affiliated with this or numerous others using the term Watchman in their names, we believe it important keep the full content intact for research and analysis for Bible students of future generations. We keep it available as good members of the body of Christ, for Christian unity. We do so on a non-profit basis. As the original owner's site went offline years ago, no one has paid to keep it online but us. We pray and hope such ministries are more careful about having successors to carry on their works in the future. Although we do not agree on every point of doctrine, we still believe it very important to not edit any of the original contents.
Our own statements of beliefs are found at www.CelticOrthodoxy.com,
and for example in the book "7th Day Sabbath in the Orthodox Church" etc.
