This book includes God's exhortation to "come now, and let us reason together." It claims that "the ox knoweth his owner, and the ass his master's crib," but a "sinful nation" does not know their God. This book is surprisingly the first to definitively state "I am the (*) first and I am the last; besides me there is no God." It claims that "all we like sheep have gone astray." Its narrator is visited by an angel, who purges his mouth with a burning coal.

This book comes before Jeremiah as the first of the Latter or Major prophets. For 10 points, name this longest prophetic book of the Bible.
