Isaiah 53 Suffering, Servant, Sorrows, Despised, Rejected
1 Key words: Isaiah 53 Suffering, servant, sorrows, despised, rejected SUFFERING SAVIOR CHAPTER ISAIAH 53:1-12 Isaiah 53 is HIStory – His Story - the story of the Messiah’s sufferings pre-written. It is prophecy about the purpose of Messiah’s coming into the world. His coming had been preceded by hundreds of years of prophecies. Those prophecies declared where and how He would be born, how He would live, and how He would die. There are at least 300 of these prophecies. And one of the most powerful of these prophetic passages of Scripture is chapter Isaiah 53. Isaiah is often called the “Messianic” prophet because so much of his book was dedicated to giving detailed information about the coming Messiah. David Baron wrote a Christian classic book on Isaiah 53 titled Servant of Jehovah. In it he said, “Isaiah 53 is the most central and the loftiest thing that Old Testament prophecy has ever achieved. Isaiah 53 has supplied more texts for the Gospel preacher than any other portion of the Old Testament.” (David Baron,1857-1926, was a Jewish convert to Christianity. The author of numerous books and periodicals, he was a leader in the Messianic Jewish and Hebrew Christian movements in Europe.) What John chapter 3 is to the Gospel of John, Isaiah chapter 53 is to the book of Isaiah. In fact, the book of Isaiah has been called the Gospel of Isaiah. Martin Luther said that every Christian ought to be able to repeat it by heart. As we come to consider the verses before us, we must go back to chapter 52 to begin.

Isaiah 53:4–12; Hebrews 4:12–16; Mark 10:35–45
Bible Study Guide PASTORATE October 24, 2012 Daily Office Lectionary Readings Psalm 91; Isaiah 53:4–12; Hebrews 4:12–16; Mark 10:35–45 Background and Context God is majestically presented throughout Isaiah 40—55 in contrast to the human-made gods of Babylon, the nation who had defeated and enslaved Israel. These chapters are meant to comfort Israel during this time, ultimately with the promise that God will rescue them from exile when God returns to Zion as king (52:1–12). The unexpected surprise is that this will be accomplished through the work of the servant of the Lord (52:13—53:12); his suffering and shameful death will be the means by which, somehow, Israel is rescued, the covenant is renewed (54), and creation is restored (55). Our passage (53:4–12) is the latter portion of the Fourth Servant Song in Isaiah, which begins at 52:13 with “Look, my servant will succeed! He will be elevated, lifted high, and greatly exalted.” This passage is well known due to the fact that New Testament writers depict the life and ministry of Jesus in terms of the suffering servant (e.g., Matt 8:17; Luke 22:37; John 12:38; Acts 8:32–33; 1 Pet 2:21–25). In Isaiah, the suffering servant is both a reference to Israel and to one who stands in for Israel, doing for the people through his suffering what they cannot do for themselves. Isaiah 53:4–12 (NET) 4 But he lifted up our illnesses, he carried our pain; even though we thought he was being punished, attacked by God, and afflicted for something he had done.

A Son of David Is Born: Isaiah 9:1-7 Jeff Mootz (12/20/20)
A SON OF DAVID IS BORN: ISAIAH 9:1-7 JEFF MOOTZ (12/20/20) I. INTRODUCTION st nd A. The Old Testament Prophets wove the 1 coming/Birth of Jesus and 2 coming of Jesus together in many of their prophecies. Understanding their flow of revelation helps us understand the long-term significance of Jesus’ birth to the Jewish people of His day. Jesus’ birth has end-time implications in these ways: removal of sin, physical deliverance from Israel’s enemies, restoration of David’s throne, exaltation/glorification of Jerusalem as God’s throne, Israel (all surviving Jews will be saved) given spiritual leadership over the nations. 1. Micah 5:2 – Jesus’ birth in Bethlehem (King David’s home) is right in the middle of an end-time prophecy about Jesus delivering Israel from Antichrist oppression. st 2. Zechariah 9:9 – Jesus’ coming on a lowly donkey at His 1 coming is right in the middle of an end-time prophecy about Jesus delivering Israel from foreign armies and ruling over the earth. 3. Isaiah 11:1 – Jesus’ birth is in the middle of a prophecy about Jesus’ earthly reign from Jerusalem. 4. Isaiah 9:1-2 (Matthew 4:13-16) – Jesus' first coming partially fulfilled this prophecy, nd but it will be fulfilled entirely at His 2 coming. 5. Isaiah 9:6-7 – Jesus’ birth is in the middle of an end-time prophecy about Israel’s deliverance and Jesus’ earthly reign over the nations. B. The book of Isaiah is the most comprehensive book on the message of the Gospel.

The Significance of the Biblical Dead Sea Scrolls
Journal of Theology of Journal Southwestern dead sea scrolls sea dead SWJT dead sea scrolls Vol. 53 No. 1 • Fall 2010 Southwestern Journal of Theology • Volume 53 • Number 1 • Fall 2010 The Significance of the Biblical Dead Sea Scrolls Peter W. Flint Trinity Western University Langley, British Columbia [email protected] Brief Comments on the Dead Sea Scrolls and Their Importance On 11 April 1948, the Dead Sea Scrolls were announced to the world by Millar Burrows, one of America’s leading biblical scholars. Soon after- wards, famed archaeologist William Albright made the extraordinary claim that the scrolls found in the Judean Desert were “the greatest archaeological find of the Twentieth Century.” A brief introduction to the Dead Sea Scrolls and what follows will provide clear indications why Albright’s claim is in- deed valid. Details on the discovery of the scrolls are readily accessible and known to most scholars,1 so only the barest comments are necessary. The discovery begins with scrolls found by Bedouin shepherds in one cave in late 1946 or early 1947 in the region of Khirbet Qumran, about one mile inland from the western shore of the Dead Sea and some eight miles south of Jericho. By 1956, a total of eleven caves had been discovered at Qumran. The caves yielded various artifacts, especially pottery. The most impor- tant find was scrolls (i.e. rolled manuscripts) written in Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek, the three languages of the Bible. Almost 900 were found in the Qumran caves in about 25,000–50,000 pieces,2 with many no bigger than a postage stamp.

Context and Content in the Interpretation of Isaiah 7:14*
Tyndale Bulletin 21 (1970) 118-25. CONTEXT AND CONTENT IN THE INTERPRETATION OF ISAIAH 7:14* By J. A. MOTYER It is a problem common to the study of all prophetic texts how to make a legitimate appeal to the work of editors and insertionists in order to understand the meaning of a passage or section. Regarding the passage in hand, for example, Duhm proposes that verse 17 is a glossator's clumsy attempt to link Isaiah 7:1-16 with 18-25, and considers verses 18-25 to be the work of 'a collector of Isaianic fragments'.1 Kissane, however, urges that 'the problem here is really one of inter- pretation' and further comments: 'Various critics omit 15 or 16 or 16b or 17; but the sole reason for the omission is the diffi- culty of interpretation.'2 The matter may be put thus: it is not that the concept of the editing of a prophetic text or book is itself at fault, but that it appears not to be taken with sufficient seriousness by those who appeal most frequently to it. The 'editor' must not be made a scapegoat. Rather than treat him as one who juxta- posed two passages which seemed to him to be coherent but are easily seen by us not to be so, we should and must assume him to be an intelligent publicist of the mind and matter of his subject. And if, as seems to be the case, there is increasing readiness to allow that the prophets could and did act as their own editors, then all the more must we seek to implement the principle of the priority of exegetical considerations.
