イザヤ書 53:4-12 JCB

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 53:12

Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great ,.... The great ones of the earth, the kings and princes of the earth: these are the words of God the Father, promising Christ that he shall have as great a part or portion assigned him as any of the mighty monarchs of the world, nay, one much more large and ample; that he would make him higher than the kings of the earth, and give him a name above every name in this world, or that to come; and all this in consequence of his sufferings,... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 53:4

Surely he Bath borne our griefs "Surely our infirmities he hath borne" - Seven MSS. (two ancient) and three editions have חליינו cholayeynu in the plural number. And carried our sorrows "And our sorrows, he hath carried them" - Seventeen MSS. (two ancient) of Dr. Kennicott's, two of De Rossi's, and two editions have the word הוא hu , he, before סבלם sebalam , "carrieth them, "in the text; four other MSS. have it in the margin. This adds force to the sense, and elegance to the... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 53:5

The chastisement of our peace "The chastisement by which our peace is effected" - Twenty-one MSS. and six editions have the word fully and regularly expressed, שלמינו shelomeynu ; pacificationum nostrarum , "our pacification;" that by which we are brought into a state of peace and favor with God. Ar. Montan. read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 53:6

The Iniquity of us all - For עון avon , "iniquity," the ancient interpreters read עונות avonoth , "iniquities," plural; and so the Vulgate in MS. Blanchini. And the Lord hath בו הפגיע hiphgia bo , caused to meet in him the iniquities of us all. He was the subject on which all the rays collected on the focal point fell. These fiery rays, which should have fallen on all mankind, diverged from Divine justice to the east, west, north, and south, were deflected from them, and... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 53:8

And who shall declare his generation "And his manner of life who would declare" - A learned friend has communicated to me the following passages from the Mishna, and the Gemara of Babylon, as leading to a satisfactory explication of this difficult place. It is said in the former, that before any one was punished for a capital crime, proclamation was made before the prisoner by the public crier, in these words: עליו וילמד יבא זכות לו שיודע מי כל col mi shioda lo zachoth yabo vayilmad alaiv... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 53:9

With the rich in his death "With the rich man was his tomb" - It may be necessary to introduce Bishop Lowth's translation of this verse before we come to his very satisfactory criticisms: - And his grave was appointed with the wicked; But with the rich man was his tomb: Although he had done no wrong, Neither was there any guile in his mouth. Among the various opinions which have been given on this passage, I have no doubt in giving my assent to that which makes the ב beth in ... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 53:10

To grief "With affliction" - For החלי hecheli , the verb, the construction of which seems to be hard and inelegant in this place, the Vulgate reads בחלי bocholi , in infirmitate, "with infirmity." When thou shalt make his soul "If his soul shall make" - For תשים tasim , a MS. has תשם tasem , which may be taken passively, "If his soul shall be made" agreeably to some copies of the Septuagint, which have δωται See likewise the Syriac. When thou shalt make his soul an... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 53:11

Shall be satisfied "And be satisfied" - The Septuagint, Vulgate, Sryiac, and a MS. add the conjunction to the verb, וישבע vaigisba . Shall my righteous servant justify "Shall my servant justify" - Three MSS., (two of them ancient), omit the word צדיק tsaddik ; it seems to be only an imperfect repetition, by mistake, of the preceding word. It makes a solecism in this place; for according to the constant usage of the Hebrew language, the adjective, in a phrase of this kind, ought... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 53:12

He bare the sin of many - רבים rabbim , the multitudes, the many that were made sinners by the offenses of one; i.e., the whole human race; for all have sinned - all have fallen; and for all that have sinned, and for all that have fallen, Jesus Christ died. The רבים rabbim of the prophet answers to the οἱ πολλοι , of the apostle, Romans 5:15 , Romans 5:19 . As the πολλοι of the apostle means all that have sinned; so the רבים rabbim of the prophet means those for whom... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 53:1-12

The Messianic interpretation of the chapter was universally acknowledged by the Jews until the time of Aben Ezra. It was also assumed as indisputable by the Christian Fathers. Almost all Christian expositors down to the commencement of the nineteenth century took the same view. It was only under the pressure of the Christian controversy that the later Jews abandoned the traditional interpretation, and applied the prophecy In the present century a certain number of Christian commentators... read more
