Isaiah 45:7

I form the light. It was about the time of Cyrus, or soon thereafter, that Zoroastrianism became the religion of Persia. Its great deity was Ahura-Mazda, the god of light and life, who was in constant conflict with the wicked hosts of darkness under Ahriman. God made known to Cyrus, and through him to the world, that He was the world’s Creator, the true God of light.

Peace. Dead Sea scroll 1QIs reads “good.”

Evil. Heb. ra‘, which may mean either moral evil that springs from within or trouble that comes upon one from without. Here it is used in the latter sense (see Isa. 47:11; Amos 3:6). God is the author of “light” and “peace.” He permits “evil,” whether moral or material, that men and angels may witness the result of a departure from the eternal principles of right (see on Dan. 4:17). In Scripture God is often represented as causing that which He does not prevent (see on 2 Chron. 18:18).
