Summary
There was Israel and there was Judah and so where Isaiah was prophesying to, who was prophesying, the thrust of his prophecy went to the kingdom of Judah. Isaiah prophesied that, indeed, there would come a time of an exile. The Babylonians are going to come, indeed they're going to conquer and they're going to pull the people into exile away from their homeland, this period of the Babylonian exile. So the word of prophecy came not only to the people of Isaiah's day, but to the people that would then come as they were waiting for their return. If we want to know who God is, if we want to know his ways, if we want to know how God describes himself, we have to turn to his word. But when the fullness of time had come, in other words, waiting for the Messiah to come and at the exact perfect time, the fullness of time, the Messiah comes.
