Isaiah: The Naked Prophet?
Our August sermon series, ‘Stories They Never Taught You in Sunday School,’ begins this coming weekend.
First up is Isaiah 20.
Not only did I not learn this in Sunday School- I never actually went to SS- I’d forgotten about it until Scot McKnight reminded me of it.
In it, God commands Isaiah to walk naked, with his buttocks exposed, and barefoot among the Jews for three years as a warning not make the same mistake Ashdod made in trusting the Egyptians for protection against the invading Assyrians. Right…
Here’s a video I found of the passage. Gosh, you really can find anything on YouTube.
Also this weekend Jason G will be doing an Isaiah 20-inspired rendition of the Old Blue Eyes’ classic ‘My Way’ entitled, that’s right, ‘Ya-weh.’
