If you are a teacher, both of these books are worth the read--cutting edge, just about literally, both are new to the scene and full of excellent counsel (and practical advice).
Isaiah 6: Seraphim and Cherubim
Isaiah was left with the lasting impression of God as sacred and set apart, glorious beyond measure, pure beyond imagining, calling God the Holy One of Israel more than any other writer in the Bible.
Isaiah 6: The Year of King Uzziah’s Death

Revelation 1: The Branch and the Spirit
The spirit of the Lord shall rest on him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and the fear of the Lord.
Revelation 1: Significance of Seven

“On Purpose: Understanding God’s Freedom for Women Through Scripture”
On Purpose offers a comprehensive look at Genesis 1-3, Ephesians 5, Passages in 1 Corinthians 11 and 14, and 1 Peter 3.
Isaiah 5: Prophetic Warning
It would be another one hundred years and more before God’s judgment would come, years of noticeable decline for Judah as they continued to ignore their prophets and disregard God’s word.
Isaiah 5: God’s Lament
