So my God, when he sees a sinner long for pardon and desirous of being accepted, thinks he sees his Son in him, and accepts him for his Son's sake. All that Christ has belongs to his seed. So Christ became the sin offering for us. The context begins in Isaiah 52:13 and continues through Isaiah 53:12: That was the purpose of God when He created man-that God might be able to fellowship with man. Now, beloved, there be many who think that God the Father is at best but an indifferent spectator of salvation. Is there not enough there to satisfy God? Isaiah 52:13 - Isaiah 53. I judge it to be the worst cankerworm that assails us. [10] Hebrew though you make [11] Dead Sea Scrolls (see also Septuagint); Masoretic Text does not have the light [of life]. She had a beautiful face, but man, she was a dud. Surely it sets Him alone in history as the only man who could ever qualify to be the Messiah, the suffering servant. Some are seeking; they have hardly found; they are longing; they have scarcely realized the way of faith. They look upon Him as an unloving, severe Being, who had no love to the human race, and could only be made loving by the death and agonies of our Saviour. Septuagint: Isaiah Polyglot KJV | Tan | Vul. I have profited greatly from R. R. Ottley, The Book of Isaiah according to the LXX (Codex Alexandrinus) (3 vols; London: Cambridge University Press, 1904-1906). There was not only a colliquation of his body in his sufferings (Psalms 22:14, I am poured out like water), but a surrender of his spirit; he poured out that, even unto death, though he is the Lord of life. But few people realize the full significance of Isaiah 53 in relation to the identity of the Messiah. I mean that the seed of Christ should be of one heart; and we ought to recognize that, wherever the life and love of Jesus are to be found, there our love goes out. Now, this is a foul libel upon the fair and glorious grace of God the Father, to whom for ever be honor: for Jesus Christ did not die to make God loving, but he died because God was loving. Seeing ones offspring was a blessing on those whom God favored (cf. But as many as looked upon Him were astonished because really, there is no form or comeliness that is really attractive when we shall see Him, there is no beauty that we should desire Him. What shall I say of the seed of Christ? and consider the unexampled love which shines in Christ's gift of himself. That all the world may see." Now, Jesus Christ has been made by God an offering for sin; and oh that to-night we may be able to do in reality what the Jew did in metaphor! I. God's purposes shall take effect, and not one iota or tittle of them shall fail. He bore our griefs, and he carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. It was also for the most part the Old Testament of . Oh, no, dear friends: Jesus' death is the effect of overwhelming and infinite love on the Father's part; and every blow which wounds, every infliction which occasions sorrow, and every pang which rends his heart, speaks of the Father's love as much as the joy, the everlasting triumph, which now surrounds his head. Tomorrow is my wedding-day, the day for which I have long panted, when I shall sign the testimony of my life by a glorious deaths." Even the Son of God stoopeth not to this burden uncalled. He shall see his seed. Poor trembling sinner, look up a moment. That is, by the knowledge of Jesus Christ. Come as you are just as you are. I want us to go back to the Old Testament and reflect on the prophecy of Isaiah 53, which tells the story of Jesus' atonement for our sins long before it happened. Psalms 21:4; Psalms 34:12; Proverbs 3:2). He was and is The Son of God, God manifested in the flesh; and that Holy Being's atoning sacrifice was more than sufficient to wipe out the sins of all the myriads of men who ever lived." On this account Paul also calls him a curse or execration: Christ hath redeemed us from the execration of the law, having been made an execration for us. (Galatians 3:13) He likewise calls him Sin; For him who knew no sin hath he made to be sin for us, that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. (2 Corinthians 5:21) And in another passage, For what was impossible for the law, inasmuch as it was weak on account of the flesh, God did, by sending his own Son in the likeness of flesh liable to sin, and for sin condemned sin in the flesh, that the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us. (Romans 8:3) What Paul meant by the words curse and sin in these passages is the same as what the Prophet meant by the word , (asham.) He had laid in Jehovah's bosom from before all worlds, eternally delighting himself in his Father, and being himself his Father's eternal joy. I may perhaps forget myself; I may run into sin and I may perish. We have our natural life, and this makes us men: we have our spiritual life, and this makes us Christians. May it not be said of each of us as it was of the prodigal, "He came to himself?" We do not read here that the Lord Christ has followers. Oh, I was excited. This was the promise made to Abraham (who herein was a type of Christ), that he should be the father of many nations and so be the heir of the world,Romans 4:13; Romans 4:17. His side was pierced; he was given up by the Roman authorities for burial; the imperial authorities were sure of his death. It was my sin that put Him on the cross. The gift of a Saviour, such as he was, evinced boundless benevolence; his sufferings in behalf of the guilty showed the holiness of his nature and law; and all demonstrated that he was at the same time disposed to save, and yet resolved that no one should be saved by dishonoring his law, or without expiation for the evil which had been done by sin. [*a] 8:2 Then find me reliable witnesses, Uriah the priest and Zechariah son of Jeberechiah.' 8:3 I went to the prophetess, she conceived and gave birth to a son. But then it follows, if we are thus of a seed, that we ought to be united, and love each other more and more. Verse Isaiah 53:10. Isaiah 53 1 Who has believed our message and to whom has the arm of the LORD been revealed? The great privilege that flows to us from the death of Christ is justification from sin, our being acquitted from that guilt which alone can ruin us, and accepted into God's favour, which alone can make us happy. Love is blind, they say. You know best, brothers and sisters, whether this is true of you; but if we have not the Spirit of Christ, we are none of his. can ye tell the greatness of that love, which made the everlasting God not only put his Son upon the altar, but actually do the deed, and thrust the sacrificial knife into his Son's heart? (Ezra 3:10) So also in the hand of Christ shall prosper the will of God; that is, the Lord will cause the ministry of Christ to yield its fruit, that it may not be thought that he exposed himself fruitlessly to such terrible sufferings. Consequently, we must come to the death of Christ; for in no other way can satisfaction be given to God. glorious doctrine! Isaiah 53:11. The reply was: "Indeed, you are right. Here our living hopes take their foundation. Picture another scene. Isaiah Chapter 2 1 . See how this dwelt upon; for, whenever we think of the sufferings of Christ, we must see him in them bearing our sin. In Christ there was no fault; why, then, was the Lord pleased that he should suffer? When he shall have offered his soul as a sacrifice. There is no other way into the first world but by birth: and there is no other way into the second world, wherein dwelleth righteousness, but by birth, and that birth is strictly connected with the pangs of the Savior's passion, "when thou shalt make his soul an of offering for sin, he shall see his seed." We are truly of the seed of Jesus, even as the Jews are of the seed of Israel not born after the flesh, for he had none born to him in that way; but born after the Spirit, wherein his seed is as the stars of heaven. The first effect of the Saviour's death is, "He shall see his seed." The Son of God faints beneath a cross that many a criminal might have carried. And if it doesn't refer to Jesus Christ, it can't refer to any other person in history. They know he has done no wrong (9).Despite the inhumanity of people, the servants death is according to Gods will.
