The view that Isaiah's ethical pronouncements were dependent upon the legal, covenantal and wisdom traditions of Israel is discussed, and the possibility of a direct dependence on the oracles of his contemporary, Amos, is examined. Davies shows that the whole question of the influence of tradition on the thought of Isaiah is fraught with problems.Journal for the study of the Old Testament.Supplement series ;16.Ethics in the BibleElectronic books.Ethics in the Bible.224.106Davies Eryl W875395MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910453918103321Prophecy and ethics1968424UNINA
