Isaiah Daniel
Isaiah chapter 39 covers the Daniel Carried to Babylon story in the book of Daniel.
FE 1At that time Merodach Baladan son of Baladan king of Babel, sent letters and presents to Hezekiah, for he had heard that he had been sick and was healed.
2Hezekiah was glad to receive them and showed them his treasure house, the silver and the gold and the spices and the precious ointment and all the house of his armor and all that was found in his treasures. There was nothing in his house nor in all his dominion that Hezekiah did not show them.
Isaiah 39:1-23Isaiah the prophet came to King Hezekiah and said to him, What did these men say to you? Where did they come to you from? Hezekiah said, They have come to me from a far country, even from Babel.
4He said, What have they seen in your house? Hezekiah answered, They have seen all the things that are in my house. I have left nothing in my house that I have not shown them.
Isaiah 39:3-45Isaiah said to Hezekiah, Hear the word of the Master of hosts.
6The days are coming when all that is in your house and what your fathers have laid up in store to this day will be carried to Babel and nothing will be left, says the Master.
7Some of your sons that will issue from you, whom you will beget, they will take away and they will be eunuchs in the house of the king of Babel.
Isaiah 39:5-78Hezekiah said to Isaiah, Good is the word of the Master which you have spoken, for there will be peace and truth in my days. Isaiah 39:8 (Isaiah 39 BRB)
Isaiah says Look, the days are coming, when all that
is in your house, and what your fathers have laid up in store
to this day, will be carried to Babylon; nothing will be left
says Yahvah.
This aligns with the treasures that were
taken to Babylon
(Dan 1:1-2)
Isaiah says some of your sons that will issue from you,
whom you will beget, they will take away; and they will be
eunuchs in the house of the king of Babylon.
This aligns
with Daniel, of royal seed, being taken to Babylon and serving
the king as an eunuch
(Dan 1:3-4).
