Isaiah 53:10

+ 53:10 a MP: God will afflict the Messiah, in association with bearing sin. (John 12:7-33; Gal 1:4; 1 Pet 2:24) Yet it pleased Adonai to bruise him. 2 He has caused him to suffer. 1 + 53:10 b MP: Messiah offers himself as a sin offering. (Matt 20:28b; Eph 5:2) To see if he would + 53:10 b MP: God’s desire is fulfilled in Messiah being a sin offering. This end goal is God’s purpose. In context, God pleasure is linked to a sin offering being provided. An atonement, a redemption, and a covering for sin was accomplished through that offering for all people who are associated (see Is 53:5-6, 53:11) bringing God pleasure. Being associated with the sin offering is seen in (Lev 4:4, 4:15, 4:24, 4:29, 4:33). (John 17:1-5; Rom 4:25; Eph 1:16-23; Heb 10:9-10; 1 John 2:2) present himself as a fault incurring guilt offering. 2 If he does, he will see his offspring, 1 + 53:10 c MP: Messiah is resurrected from death and has life beyond the grave. “He will prolong / lengthen his days”. (Luke 24:6-7, 24:46; Acts 2:24) and he will prolong his days, 2 and Adonai’s pleasure will prosper in his hand. 1

In Context

9+ 53:9 a MP: By being killed along with other criminals, Messiah is assigned a grave with the wicked. (Matt 27:38) They made his grave with את the wicked, 2 + 53:9 a MP: Buried in a rich man’s grave. Evidence: Raymond Brown comments on Roman attitudes to the bodies of the crucified. The Digest of Justinian 48:24 (200 CE) gives two Roman political legal people’s decisions about criminals executed. Ulpian: “The bodies of those who suffer capital punishment are not to be refused to their relatives.” Julius Paulus adds: “Nor to any who seek them for burial.” Ulpian states this might be refused if the criminal was executed for treason. Therefore Yeshua was not convicted of Roman treason, but likely killed for a political motive. (The Burial of Yeshua Mark 15:42-47 by Raymond Brown (1988)). (Matt 27:57-60) את and with a rich man in his death; 1 + 53:9 b MP: Messiah is innocent, having done no violence or deceit, persoanlly or politically.

11+ 53:11 a MP: God is fully satisfied with the suffering of the Messiah. By accepting this, it infers the sin offering is accepted. Acceptance of the sin offering is seen in (Lev 4:20).

(Heb 2:17-18; 4:15, 9:28) My righteous + 53:11 b MP: Messiah is God’s servant. (John 6:38; Romans 6:19) servant will justify many; 2 for it is their depravities (moral evils) that he suffers. 1

Matthew Henry on Isaiah 53:5-10

The Humiliation of the Messiah. ( b. c. 706.) 4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. 5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. 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. 7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened… Read the whole commentary →
