Isaiah 53:7-10 BSB

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 53:9

And they made his grave with the wicked ones, And with a rich man in his death (literally ‘deaths’). Although he had done no violence, Neither was any deceit in his mouth.’ The wicked and the rich are often looked at synonymously (compare Psalms 52:7). The rich tended to behave wickedly, and especially dishonestly and deceitfully (Micah 6:12). That is regularly how they became and stayed rich (compare Proverbs 18:23; Proverbs 28:6; Proverbs 28:20; Jeremiah 17:11). Thus the idea here is that... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 53:10

‘Yet it pleased (‘it was the will of’) Yahweh to bruise him. He put him to grief. When you make his soul an offering for sin He will see his seed, he will prolong his days, And the pleasure of Yahweh will prosper in his hand.’ Now the situation is made quite plain. All that has happened to the Servant has happened in the will of God. It was not just allowed to happen, it happened at His pleasure. He chose to crush Him. He chose to put Him to suffering. Not because He was angry at Him or because... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 53:7

He was oppressed, and he was afflicted; he was sorely punished for our sins. But there is another translation, which seems to be more emphatical, and more agreeable to the Hebrew text; It (to wit, our iniquity last mentioned, or the punishment of all our sins) was exacted or required, (as this word most properly and frequently signifies, of which see my Latin Synopsis. God’s justice expected and required satisfaction from us for our sins; which, alas! we could not make to him,) and he was... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 53:8

He was taken from prison and from judgment: these words are understood either, 1. Of Christ’s humiliation or suffering; and then the words are to be thus rendered, He was taken away (to wit, out of this life, as this word is used, Psalms 31:13; Proverbs 1:19, and elsewhere; he was put to death) by distress (or violence, or tyranny, as this word is used with this preposition before it, Psalms 107:39) and judgment; by oppression and violence, under a form and pretence of justice. Or rather, 2. Of... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 53:9

He made his grave with the wicked; and although he did not die for his own, but only for his people’s sins, yet he was willing to die like a malefactor, or like a sinner, as all other men are, and to be put into the grave, as they used to be; which was a further degree of his humiliation. He saith, he made his grave, because this was Christ’s own act, and he willingly yielded up himself to death and burial. And that which follows, with the wicked, doth not note the sameness of place, as if he... read more

Matthew Poole

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 53:10

Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him; but although he was perfectly innocent, it pleased God for other just and wise reasons to punish him. He hath put him to grief; God was the principal Cause of all his sorrows and sufferings, although men’s sins were the deserving cause. When thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin; when thou, O God, shalt make, or have made, thy Son a sacrifice, by giving him up to death for the atonement of men’s sins. His soul is here put for his life, or for... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Isaiah 53:2-12

THE GREAT MESSIANIC PROPHECYIsaiah 53:2-12. For He shall grow up before Him, &c.Among the prophecies of Isaiah, that which is contained in the chapter before us stands eminent and illustrious. Received and interpreted according to the sense attached to it by Christians, it involves in it a striking proof of the truth and divinity of our holy religion. It does this simply as a prophecy, irrespective of its dogmatic or theological character. It is a prediction of what was to come to pass. It... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Isaiah 53:7

OUR SAVIOUR’S SUFFERINGS AND SUBMISSIONIsaiah 53:7. He was oppressed, &c.The whole field of Scripture is of infinite value, yet the Christian peculiarly prizes those parts of it wherein Christ, the hidden treasure, the one pearl of great price, is most fully exhibited to the view. This chapter holds a first rank in His esteem, because here, long before our Redeemer’s incarnation, He was evidently set forth crucified. Isaiah here discourses of Him with a pathetic tenderness and minuteness of... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Isaiah 53:8

CHRIST STRICKEN(Sacramental Service.)Isaiah 53:8. For the transgression of my people was He stricken.The general doctrine of the text is that of an expiation for sinners, made by an innocent victim substituted in their place. In the substitution of an innocent being to suffer in the room of the guilty (and especially such a being as Jesus Christ), and in pardoning and accepting the guilty into favour on that account, there appears a departure from all our common ideas of justice and propriety,... read more
