God recognized the value of a divine portrait and inspired Isaiah to prophetically paint a portrait of the corning Christ several hundrede of years prior to Hie coming.

Consider corne of the Holy Bible's awve-inspiring details: Wonderful It is wonderful to watch the Saviour as He associated with sinncrs, yet neyer sinned. Hie enernies could not find one flaw in Hie character or Hie conduct. He was without reproach.
