CHIA, Philip Suciadi. An analysis of Isaiah 62:6-7 - A psychology of religion approach. Verbum Eccles. (Online) [online]. 2021, vol.42, n.1, pp.1-4. ISSN 2074-7705.  http://dx.doi.org/10.4102/ve.v42i1.2206.

This article argues that prayer does not only offer hope of restoration in the future but also presents a restoration of the supplicants. Isaiah 62:6-7 will be presented as a case study. The psychology of religion will be used as the methodology to achieve this goal: present restoration of the prayers in Isaiah 62:6-7. INTRADISCIPLINARY AND/OR INTERDISCIPLINARY IMPLICATIONS: This article combines exegetical insights from biblical studies and psychology of religion.

Keywords : Book of Isaiah; prayer; exile and restoration; psychology of religion; mental health.
