| Summary: | In using the exodus tradition as his paradigm Deutero-Isaiah proclaimed the new message of God's creative liberation work. In order to articulate the task of the exiles as that of being God's servant in his creative activity the prophet employed the (Deuteronomistic) Moses tradition as his paradigm. Likewise New Testament authors employed Isaiah 53 as one of their paradigms for proclaiming the new gospel of Jesus Christ. Such reinterpretation of older texts, traditions and events in a new situation does not invalidate the meaning of the paradigm text/tradition/event, but rather reinforces their historical meaning and contemporary significance. |
