Isaiah
Most scholars believe that Isaiah had multiple authors, which Oswalt disputes. He argued that the source of all the chapters in the book of Isaiah are from Isaiah, though the book could have been assembled over the years from his collected works. He wrote that in the Dead Sea Scrolls, Isaiah is a single scroll with no signs of change between chapters 39 and 40. Also as far as we know the book has always existed in one collection called "Isaiah".I'm not at all sure that Isaiah himself wrote the book as we have it. However, I do believe that all that is in the book originated with Isaiah and probably that his disciples then were the ones who collected what he said and commented on and put it in its present form.” —Dr. John Oswalt
