Christ Unlike the Prophets of Israel
Isaiah 42:2-3
He shall not cry, nor lift up, nor cause his voice to be heard in the street.…


This feature of the Servant's activity can hardly have been suggested by the demeanour of the prophets of Israel; and for that reason the prophecy is all the more wonderful as a perception of the true condition of spiritual work. It reminds us of the "still small voice" in which Elijah was made to recognise the power of Jehovah.

(Prof. J. Skinner, D. D.)
