Isaiah / Question
Question source
Isaiah
Isaiah confesses he is unclean and living among an unclean people after seeing the King (Isaiah 6:5). A seraph touches his mouth with a burning coal from the altar and declares his guilt taken away and sin atoned for (Isaiah 6:6-7).
5Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for my eyes have seen the King, Yahweh of Hosts.
6Then flew one of the seraphim to me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar:
7and he touched my mouth with it, and said, Behold, this has touched your lips; and your iniquity is taken away, and your sin forgiven.
