Isaiah 9:6
6 For to us a child is born, to us a son is given,
and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called Wonderful Counselor,
Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

For Isaiah’s original listeners, the word “peace”
held layered significance. Spiraling toward war and destruction, Israel and Judah’s histories were marked by short seasons of harmony. Generations of kings rejected God’s Word, but God extended peace to those who listened. By the time Isaiah prophesied to the kings of Judah, chaos reigned. For a war-torn people, the Prince of Peace offered hope.
