“Faithful Witnesses to Record”

Brant Gardner

Isaiah specifically mentions that he takes two reliable witness with him. To where? That information comes in the next verse. While it is possible that the witnesses attested to the scroll, it is more probable that the scroll was evidence in and of itself. The witnesses are required because the prophecy includes an element of time, and the witnesses are to attest to the beginning point of the prophecy, the "ground zero" against which the time would be marked.
