Although chapters of Isaiah 40-55 in the Bible seem to deny the “existence of other gods” at first reading, they do not deny the reality of other divine beings. In fact, this section uses rhetoric that implies the incomparability of God’s power.
“I don’t think Second-Isaiah (Isaiah 40-55) really questions the existence of other gods. I think it’s more that he questions their power.” | John J. Collins
