contents This article proposes a new approach to studying the spectral Eisenstein series of weight $k$ on a congruence subgroup of $\text{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$ using Hecke's theory of Eisenstein series for the principal congruence subgroups. Our method provides a gateway to analytic and arithmetic properties of the spectral Eisenstein series using corresponding results for the principal congruence subgroup. We show that the specializations of the weight $k$ spectral Eisenstein series at $s = 0$ give rise to a basis for the space of Eisenstein series on a general congruence subgroup, and the Fourier coefficients of the basis elements lie in a cyclotomic number field. Our philosophy also yields an explicit basis parameterized by cusps for the space of Eisenstein series with a nebentypus character. We utilize the spectral basis for the space of Eisenstein series to provide a simple proof of the Eichler-Shimura isomorphism theorem for the entire space of modular forms.
