Exploring Judaism

This is part of the Tanakh Yomi Project.

Who (or what) is the subject of Isaiah 26?
Who will enter the gates (of Jerusalem)?
Or, what are the “requirements”?
In Isaiah 26:7-8, what is the definition of the “tzaddik”?
According to Isaiah 26:9, when does the prophet “seek out” Divinity?
According to Isaiah 26:10, who will “enjoy good times”?
How does Isaiah 26:12 indicate the universal provenance of God?
Does Isaiah 26:19 deal with resurrection and/or immortality or with some other subject via the poetic?
Do Isaiah 26:20-21 indicate destruction where the Jew is concerned, or is the message one of imminent travail but with the possibility that the Jew can escape?
