Isaiah 53:10-11 NIV

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 53:10

A soul-offering. This prepares us to see that the real sacrifice for sin, which our Redeemer offered, was the full surrender of his will , his self , to God, which found expression, for us to apprehend it, in his bodily sufferings on the cross (see Hosea 9:14 ). I. SIN IS A SOUL - THING . It is not an act; it is a man acting. II. PENALTY IS A SOUL - THING . "The soul that sinneth, it shall die." III. SALVATION IS A SOUL - THING .

He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied ; rather, because of the travail of his soul he shall see , and be satisfied (comp. Philippians 2:7-11 , "He made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men; and being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross, Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a Name which is above every... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 53:11

Satisfied for sore travail. When the sufferings of our Lord are spoken of in Scripture, they are usually connected with his exaltation and glory. "When they testified of the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow;" "It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God;" "Ought not Messias to suffer these things, and to enter into his glory? For the suffering of death crowned with glory and honour! A witness of the sufferings of Christ,... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 53:10

Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him - In this verse, the prediction respecting the final glory and triumph of the Messiah commences. The design of the whole prophecy is to state, that in consequence of his great sufferings, he would be exalted to the highest honor (see the notes at Isaiah 52:13). The sense of this verse is, ‘he was subjected to these sufferings, not on account of any sins of his, but because, under the circumstances of the case, his sufferings would be pleasing to Yahweh. He... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 53:11

He shall see of the travail of his soul - This is the language of Yahweh, who is again introduced as speaking. The sense is, he shall see the fruit, or the result of his sufferings, and shall be satisfied. He shall see so much good resulting from his great sorrows; so much happiness, and so many saved, that the benefit shall be an ample compensation for all that he endured. The word rendered here ‘travail’ (עמל ‛âmâl), denotes properly labor, toil; wearisome labor; labor and toil which... read more

Isaiah 53:10-11. It pleased the Lord to bruise him Although he was perfectly innocent, it pleased God, for other just and wise reasons, to expose him to sufferings and death. He hath put him to grief His God and Father spared him not, though he was his only and beloved Son, but delivered him up for us all, to ignominy and torture, delivered him by his determinate counsel and foreknowledge, (Acts 2:23,) into the power of those whose wicked hands he knew would execute upon him every... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Isaiah 53:1-12

The servant’s suffering and glory (52:13-53:12)Just as people were startled at the sight of the servant’s great sufferings, so will they be startled at the sight of his great glory. They will be struck dumb, as it were, as they witness a sight more glorious than they or anyone else could ever have imagined (13-15).Many people find it hard to believe that God will give his servant such power and magnificence, because when they look at the servant they see just an ordinary person of insignificant... read more

THE FIFTH STANZA"Yet it pleased Jehovah to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of Jehovah shall prosper in his hand.
