Isaiah 53:10-11 Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he has put him to grief: when you shall make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed… The prophet is still dealing with the Jews scandals. Whilst you look only to the outward meanness and sufferings of Christ, you overlook the design of God in Him. I. THE WILL OF GOD. "It pleased the Lord to bruise Him," etc., that is the cause of His sufferings. II. THE NATURE OF HIS SUFFERINGS. "When Thou shall make His soul an offering for sin." III. THE FRUITS OF HIS SUFFERING. ( T. Manton, D.D.) Parallel Verses KJV: Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand. |
