For I tell you that this Scripture must be fulfilled in Me: This phrase indicates Jesus' awareness of His role in fulfilling Old Testament prophecies. The use of "must" underscores the divine necessity and inevitability of these events, as part of God's sovereign plan. Jesus often referenced the fulfillment of Scripture to validate His mission and identity as the Messiah. This reflects the continuity between the Old and New Testaments, showing that Jesus' life and work were the culmination of God's redemptive history. ‘And He was numbered with the transgressors.’ For what is written about Me is reaching its fulfillment.” Persons / Places / Events 1. Jesus ChristThe central figure in this passage, Jesus is speaking to His disciples about the fulfillment of prophecy concerning His impending suffering and crucifixion. 2. Disciples The immediate audience of Jesus' words, they are being prepared for the events that will soon unfold, including Jesus' arrest and crucifixion. 3. Prophecy Jesus refers to the prophecy from Isaiah 53:12, indicating that His suffering and association with sinners are part of God's redemptive plan. 4.

Teaching Points Prophetic FulfillmentJesus' life and death were in accordance with God's prophetic plan, affirming the reliability and divine inspiration of Scripture. Identification with Sinners Jesus' willingness to be counted among sinners demonstrates His profound love and humility, offering a model for believers to identify with and serve others. Redemptive Purpose Jesus' association with transgressors was not accidental but purposeful, highlighting the redemptive nature of His mission to save humanity from sin. Trust in God's Plan Believers can find comfort in knowing that God's plans are perfect and will be fulfilled, even when circumstances seem dire. Call to Suffer for Righteousness Just as Jesus suffered unjustly, Christians are called to endure suffering for the sake of righteousness, trusting in God's ultimate justice and purpose.(37) And he was reckoned among the transgressors.--Literally, the lawless ones, or, breakers of the law. The distinct reference to the words of Isaiah 53:12 is remarkable as showing that the picture of the righteous sufferer in that chapter had all along been present, if we may so speak, to our Lord's thoughts as that which He Himself had to realise. It was, as it were, a hint given to the disciples before the Passion, that they might learn, when it came, that it was part of the divine purpose that the Christ should so suffer; not singled out for the honour of a martyr's death, but hurried as a malefactor, with other malefactors, to the death of the rebel or the robber.Verse 37. - For I say unto you, that this that is written must yet be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned among the transgressors. Here he shows them what he meant. They, as disciples of One treated as a malefactor, had surely nothing to expect but hatred and persecution. Stier remarks that this is the first time that the Lord himself directs us to the fifty-third chapter of Isaiah, that most pre-eminent and complete text of the Passion. For the things concerning me have an end. The tragic end of his earthly ministry is close at hand. The prophetic description of the suffering Servant of the Lord will soon be found to have been terribly accurate. Parallel Commentaries ... Greek Forγὰρ (gar) Conjunction Strong's 1063: For.
