Reformed Wisdom

On Isaiah 19:1-15 --
"The abiding message of a passage such as this lies not in the details, which are peculiar to its situation and date, but in its insistence that the problems of society, economics, and politics, have a spiritual causation.  They are the outworking of divine purpose and are directly traceable to the hand of God, not the outworking of sociological laws, market forces or political fortunes.  And it is only by recourse to the Lord that they can be solved." -- J. Alec Motyer, The Prophecy of Isaiah, 164.
