Though actually, the book is long and not all one voice. Scholars often say the first part is closer to Isaiah’s own time, and later parts were written by people who followed his way of thinking, years after he died. That does not make the book less loved; it only means “Isaiah” on the cover is both a man and a tradition.

Though actually不過其實 the book這本書 is long and not all one voice很長，也不是同一個聲音寫成的。Scholars學者 often say the first part is closer to Isaiah's own time常說前半部比較接近以賽亞自己的時代 and later parts were written by people who followed his way of thinking, years after he died而後半部則是他過世多年後、追隨他思想的人所寫。That那 does not make the book less loved並不會讓這本書因此比較不受喜愛 it只是意味著 only means "Isaiah" on the cover is both a man and a tradition封面上的「以賽亞」既是一個人，也是一個傳統。
