Avraham Gileadi was born in the Netherlands during World War II. During the war, his father’s Dutch underground organization helped a New Zealand pilot escape to England. This led to the family emigrating to New Zealand in 1950. In 1968, Avraham Gileadi emigrated to Israel, where he learned Hebrew, attended rabbinical school, and studied Jewish analytical methods. In 1973, he moved to the United States, married and raised a family of nine children. He graduated with a Ph.D. in Hebrew Bible and Ancient Near Eastern Studies under the tutelage of Professor Roland. K. Harrison of Wycliffe College, Toronto, Canada, with Professor Hugh Nibley as chairman.
For his doctoral thesis, he analyzed a complex literary structure in the Book of Isaiah that radically impacts the book’s interpretation. During his Ph.D. program, he translated the text of Isaiah into modern English, with annotations from the Dead Sea Scroll of Isaiah, 1Qsaa, and the Greek Septuagint Version, LXX. His publications include The Literary Message of Isaiah; The End from the Beginning: The Apocalyptic Vision of Isaiah with Isaiah Translation; The Book of Isaiah: Analytical Translation with Comprehensive Concordance; Apocalyptic Commentary of the Book of Isaiah; and Windows on the Prophecy of Isaiah: Study Tools for Understanding Isaiah, and Becoming Kings and Queens of the Gentiles.
