Why are they talking about Isaiah 5 and 12 and skipping 6-11 this week? Because 5-12 is a palistrophe—a big one! In case you have forgotten, a palistrophe is a literary structure that relates parallel lines, phrases or thoughts in reverse order to highlight a central idea. So, the Song of the Vineyard in chapter 5 and the Song of Thanksgiving in chapter 12 are related, parallel ideas and they are located on opposite sides of the structure—the beginning and end. In between these two songs is the central thought of this passage—we'll get to that idea in a later episode—as well as a series of oracles that fit inside the palistrophe.

First, they talk about  what an uplifted hand oracle is (hint: it is about punishment), where they are (Isaiah 5:24-30 and 9:8-10:4), and what they mean for Israel.

Then they get to the Isaianic Memoir (6:1-9:7), and focus on what is probably the most familiar passage in the book: Isaiah's commission. Listen in as they discuss important details in this passage: forgiveness of sins, the difficulty of Isaiah's task, and the remnant that will return after God's punishment of Israel.

The uplifted hand oracles make up C and C1 of the palistrophe structure in Isaiah 5-12 below. Isaiah's calling is the first part of the Isaianic memoir.
