The Meaning of Loyalty, Part 5: Deutero-Isaiah, 1951 June 3

Description

In this fifth lecture on The Meaning of Loyalty, Thurman delves into Deutero-Isaiah. Isaiah, as prophet is dedicated to the restoration of Israel and Israel's ultimate destiny in God's plan. However, according to Thurman, Isaiah is disappointed by the people who do not seem to be sensitive to their divine duty. Thurman explains that through this disappointment, Isaiah comes to a great spiritual discovery: the significance of Israel is not measured in power or status, but rather "in humility of spirit and of mind."
