Episode Summary. Just as Lucy’s encounter with Aslan upon her second trip to Narnia caused her to realize that her prior view of Aslan was too small, Isaiah’s encounter with God in the temple of Jerusalem caused him to realize his view of the Lord of Hosts was too small. Isaiah was dwarfed by God’s majesty. His sin was laid bare by the radiance of God’s glory. And he was traumatized by God’s holiness. Although such holiness and the wrath against evil that goes with it are not usually our favorite attributes of God, we observed that God’s holiness is enormously beneficial to us and all creation. We further considered God’s responsibility as judge of his universe, noting that God would be immoral if he did not demand just punishment for evil and reward good.
