Isaiah 53:11 He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many… I. A few thoughts illustrative of THE MEANING of the text. II. Two or three PRACTICAL OBSERVATIONS to show how we ought to be affected who believe that meaning. 1. The "satisfaction" of Messiah in relation to the present world is yet incomplete. This should promote humility. 2. In spite of all past disappointments, we confidently expect the fulfilment of this prophecy. 3. The subject ought to lead us individually seriously to examine whether we are contributing to the Saviour's satisfaction, either by what we are or by what we are doing. (T. Binney D.D.) Parallel Verses KJV: He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities. |
