Which things Isaiah said when?

When he saw his glory:

Isaiah said: “He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with [their] eyes, nor understand with [their] heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.” (John 12:40; Isaiah 6:10)

When he spoke of Him:

That the saying of Esaias the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spake, Lord, who hath believed our report? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed? (John 12:38;Isaiah 53:1)

Isaiah is here said to have seen the glory of Jesus.When did he see that? The context of the passage clearly refers to the vision Isaiah had in Isaiah 6:1, where it is said that ” In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple.” Here the word used for “Lord” is “Adonay,” but in 6:5, the word is “Yahweh,” So while we have “Lord” and “Yahweh” in Isaiah, In John 12:41 we have Jesus! What can we know from this?

Jesus is God! He pre-existed in glory!He is the King of glory!Tetragammation (Yahweh)is used for Jesus!
