The prophet, complaining of incredulity, excuses the scandal of the cross4. By the benefit of his passion 10. And the good success thereof We all like sheep have gone astray This phrase begins with a powerful metaphor comparing humanity to sheep. In the Hebrew text, the word for "sheep" is "צֹאן" (tso'n), which often symbolizes vulnerability and the tendency to wander without guidance. Sheep are known for their lack of direction and dependence on a shepherd. This imagery is used to illustrate the spiritual condition of humanity, emphasizing our tendency to deviate from God's path. Historically, sheep were a common part of daily life in ancient Israel, making this metaphor relatable and poignant for the original audience. The phrase underscores the universal nature of sin, as "we all" indicates that no one is exempt from this tendency to stray. Each one has turned to his own way And the LORD has laid upon Him the iniquity of us all Hath laid on him.--Better, as in the margin, hath made to light on him. The words express the fact, but do not explain the mystery, of the substitutive satisfaction. The two sides of that mystery are stated in the form of a seeming paradox. God does not punish the righteous with the wicked (Genesis 18:25). He accepts the suffering of the righteous for the wicked (Mark 10:45). . . . Verse 6. - All we like sheep have gone astray. "All we" means either the whole nation of Israel, which "went astray" in the wilderness of sin (Psalm 107:4; Psalm 119:176; Ezekiel 34:6), or else the whole race of mankind, which had wandered from the right path, and needed atonement and redemption even more than Israel itself We have turned every one to his own way. Collectively and individually, the whole world had sinned. There was "none that did good" absolutely - "no, not one" (Psalm 14:3). All had quitted "the way of the Lord" (Isaiah 40:3) to walk in their "own ways" (Isaiah 66:3). The Lord hath laid on him; literally, the Lord caused to light upon him. God the Father, as the primary Disposer of all things, lays upon the Son the burden, which the Son voluntarily accepts. He comes into the world to do the Father's will. He prays to the Father, "Let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt" (Matthew 26:39). So St. John says that the Father "sent the Son to be the Propitiation for our sins" (1 John 4:10). And St. Paul tells us that God (the Father) "made him to be sin for us who knew no sin" (2 Corinthians 5:21). It does not lessen the Son's exceeding mercy and loving-kindness in accepting the burden, that it was laid upon him by the Father. The iniquity of us all (compare the initial "All we"). The redemption is as universal as the sin, at any rate potentially. Christ on the cross made "a full, perfect, and sufficient sacrifice... for the sins of the whole world."Parallel Commentaries ...
