Meanwhile, in the southern kingdom, a priest is tending to the temple during the year that king Uzziah of Judah died. Suddenly, he sees a vision of God, 6-winged seraphim, and the robe of God fills the temple. The 6-winged seraphim use two wings to cover their faces, two wings to cover their feet, and two wings to fly.
The man trembles and feels unworthy to see what is before him.
One of the seraphim picks up a burning coal from the altar and flies to the priest. He touches the coal to the priest's lips, cleansing it so he may speak for God.
Thus begins the ministry of Isaiah the prophet. He will have a lot to say.
