Isiah and Paul Now that the winds have calmed and life is getting back to normal picking up with Isiah, and spending time studying the longest book in the Bible, the picture that Paul paints throughout Romans, but especially in chapter 7, becomes all to clear. During our study of Romans the appreciation for Paul grew to the point of hero status. Paul seems to echo Isiah and harken back to what Isiah prophesied so many years before.
