Isaiah's Literary Structures
Avraham Gileadi was born in the Netherlands during World War II. During the war, his father’s Dutch underground organization helped a New Zealand pilot escape to England. This led to the family emigrating to New Zealand in 1950. In 1968, Avraham Gileadi emigrated to Israel, where he learned Hebrew, attended rabbinical school, and studied Jewish analytical methods. In 1973, he moved to the United States, married and raised a family of nine children. He graduated with a Ph.D. in Hebrew Bible and Ancient Near Eastern Studies under the tutelage of Professor Roland. K. Harrison of Wycliffe College, Toronto, Canada, with Professor Hugh Nibley as chairman.
For his doctoral thesis, he analyzed a complex literary structure in the Book of Isaiah that radically impacts the book’s interpretation. During his Ph.D. program, he translated the text of Isaiah into modern English, with annotations from the Dead Sea Scroll of Isaiah, 1Qsaa, and the Greek Septuagint Version, LXX. His publications include The Literary Message of Isaiah; The End from the Beginning: The Apocalyptic Vision of Isaiah with Isaiah Translation; The Book of Isaiah: Analytical Translation with Comprehensive Concordance; Apocalyptic Commentary of the Book of Isaiah; and Windows on the Prophecy of Isaiah: Study Tools for Understanding Isaiah, and Becoming Kings and Queens of the Gentiles.

Professor Hugh Nibley of BYU is known to have declared: “Dr. Gileadi is the only LDS scholar I know of who is thoroughly competent to teach the words of Isaiah.”

The Isaiah Institute was created in the year 2000 by the Hebraeus Foundation to disseminate the message of the prophet Isaiah.

Ep. 29 | Revelation to Guide Preparation with Stephanie Taylor Jul 19, 2022

Show notes

Meghan is joined this week by Stephanie Taylor to discuss keys to temporal preparation. Topics include:
- Adjusting our Attitudes on Temporal Prep
- Learning the Language of the Spirit
- Stephanie's Key to Empowering Prayer
- The Three Voices in Our Heads
- Economic Patterns from Russia's History
Stephanie Taylor is an eclectic individual with a background as varied as her tastes. She was born and raised in Utah, but loves adventuring beyond the state's borders to explore how everyone else in the world lives.

She served a mission in Moscow Russia and received a degree from BYU in Communications and Public Relations. She spent many years working as a corporate sales and personal development trainer while she waited for the blessing of motherhood. She refers to this phase of her life as B.C (before children). She also earned a degree from the School of Hard Knocks during a 17-year journey with infertility. She was ultimately blessed to give birth to 3 living children, while losing 3 others along the way. Her children are by far her greatest accomplishment.

Stephanie’s life-long interest is studying and teaching the gospel. She was honored to be on faculty at BYU Education Week for 5 years speaking on infertility and varied gospel topics. Learning challenges within her family led her to get specialty education and licensing to work with Dyslexia and ADHD in private practice. She also teaches personal development workshops online with her partner and author of The Sultan’s Seven Secrets, Jeff Buehner.

Preparedness has been a passion of Stephanie’s for the last 15 years. Her family lives on a hobby farm where they have learned various skills and principles associated with self-reliance. She takes seriously the scriptural promise that “... if ye are prepared, ye shall not fear.”
