Summary/Abstract: The historical-literary analysis of the Book of Isaiah suggests that Isaiah 61 is the oldest chapter of the last part of the Book of Isaiah, known as Trito-Isaiah (56-66). There are messages from the Babylonian exile that portray the post-exile Jewish community. There is disappointment and at the same time anticipation of the realization of earlier prophecies of restoration. In Isa 61: 1-3 there is a confession of a mysterious figure sent by God. The hero, anointed with the Spirit of the Lord, heralds a radical renewal of Israel. The exegetical analysis of the prophet’s individual tasks allows him to be identified with various heroes of the biblical story (David, the Messiah, the Servant of the Lord). At the same time, these activities were most often attributed to God Himself. The eschatological renewal of Israel, which God will accomplish, will also extend to other nations.
