Sermon Bible Commentary - Isaiah 53:3-4

Isaiah 53:3-4 I. Consider first the humiliation of our blessed Lord. Not only did He suffer extreme pain in body, but also in mind. The divinity of our Lord does not mitigate the intensity of His sufferings. A man's sorrows are mercifully shortened by his ignorance, short-sightedness, and infirmity; but Christ knew all, even the depth of sin in every heart; He foresaw all, even to the hour of death for each single soul for which He was suffering, even to the Day of Judgment, even to the endless... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Isaiah 53:4

Isaiah 53:4 Jesus Christ is the comforter we need, for I. He is an afflicted Man, the most afflicted of all the human race, a Man of sorrows. If He wishes to sympathise He has only to recall the past. We cannot take a single step in our gloomy path without finding some traces of Him. We cannot light upon an affliction through which He has not passed before us. He knows what sorrow is, and this is why He can comfort. We have not a high priest who cannot be touched with the feeling of our... read more

DISCOURSE: 969THE MEANS OF MAN’S RESTORATION TO GODIsaiah 53:6. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.THE lost state of man by nature, and his recovery through the blood of Christ, are the two principal doctrines of our religion.

Spurgeon's Verse Expositions of the Bible - Isaiah 53:5

A Simple Remedy September 1st, 1872 by C. H. SPURGEON (1834-1892) With his stripes we are healed Isaiah 53:5 . Ever since the fall, healing has been the chief necessity of manhood. There was no physician in paradise, but outside that blissful enclosure professors of the healing art have been precious as the gold of Ophir. Even in Eden itself there grew the herbs which should in after days yield medicine for the body of man. Before sin came into the world, and disease, which is the consequence... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Isaiah 53:1-12

By Chuck SmithWhen men made chapter and verse divisions, they did make mistakes. The Word of God is divinely inspired; it's inerrant. But men, for the sake of helping us to find scriptures and to memorize passages, divided the Bible into chapter and verses. And it's a very convenient way to reference. However, many times they made the divisions in the wrong place, and in our reading we are prone to read to an end of a chapter and then quit until the next reading. And sometimes the thought... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 53:1-12

Isaiah 53:1 . Who hath believed our report; and to whom is (the Messiah) the mighty arm of the Lord revealed? This complaint of the servants is but the plaintive echo of their Master’s voice. He had said in the Spirit, “I have laboured in vain, and spent my strength for nought; yet surely my judgment is with the Lord, and my work is with my God.” But he spake not in despair; his righteousness sustained him. “Though Israel be not gathered, yet shall I be glorious in the eyes of the Lord,... read more

Isaiah 53:1-12Who hath believed our report?--The Messiah referred to in Isaiah 53:1-12By some it has been supposed, in ancient times and in modern, that the prophet was referring to the sufferings of the nation of Israel--either of Israel as a whole or of the righteous section of the nation--and to the benefits that would accrue from those sufferings to the surrounding peoples, some of whom were contemptuous of Israel, all of whom may be described as ignorant of God. But to defend that opinion... read more

With regard to His being a teacher, His sufferings set Him above the reach of suspicions. What ends could He have to serve by His doctrine, who met with nothing but misery and affliction, as the reward of His labour? 2.
