Astonishingly, Isaiah chapter 40 tells us very clearly that the Messiah, the Christ, The One Who Wast To Come, was to be God Himself. And It tells where He was to come, that is in the wilderness (unpopulated places) and in, of all places, Judea! And that this would be “good news.”
Further Isaiah 40 tells us that the way would be prepared for God, by one crying in the wilderness!
