Isaiah Babylon would be attacked by the Medes. Instead of making it easy for the reader, therefore, he predicts things piecemeal, breaking up the sequence by depicting an event several times in combination with other events.

  • Isaiah 50-55
    Isaiah 50-55 Part 1 “He said to them, ‘How foolish you are, and how slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken! Did not the Christ have to suffer these things and then enter his glory?’ And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he explained to them what was said in all the Scriptures concerning himself.” (Lk 24:25-27) BACKGROUND • In Jn 1:26, 39, John the Baptist refers to Jesus as the “Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world,” possibly quoting Isa 53:7. According to the Dictionary of Jesus and the Gospels, “The phrase ‘the lamb of God’ can be related to several different lambs in OT and later Jewish thought, but most of these (e.g., the Passover lamb, the lamb of the daily offering or the messianic lamb of later apocalyptic) do not directly support the idea of taking away sin, so that it is reasonable to see the Servant figure as making a major contribution to this image.” • “[The stanza containing Isa 52:15] ends with the ‘sprinkling’ of many nations and the stunned reaction to it. ‘Sprinkling with blood, oil or water is in the OT bound up with cleansing, i.e., with making a person or thing fit to come before God. Normally this has reference to Israel or it institutions, but not here: this is for ‘many nations’ (52:15). The stunned reaction testifies that God’s wisdom overthrows and confounds all human wisdom (cf. 1 Cor 1:18-2:5).”1 QUESTIONS 1.

  • Isaiah – Servant Songs
    Isaiah – Servant Songs Welcome to Isaiah – Servant Songs This study guide will take you into the four sections of God’s Word through the prophet Isaiah that are known as the “Servant Songs.” These four songs speak of the Servant of the Lord, who will lead and rescue God’s people, suffering for their rebellion in the process. Ultimately these songs can only be true of Jesus. If you’re using these studies in a Bible Study Group, try to make sure you’ve read the passage and done your preparation before you meet. This will be of great benefit not only to you, but also to the other members of your group. If you’re a Bible Study Group Leader please don’t feel that your group needs to answer every question in every study. With such a wide variety of ages and personalities in our church, we have included a number of different types of questions, including some which reflect on the same points, just from slightly different perspectives. Please choose the questions most appropriate for your group. If you’re doing these studies individually, why not let someone know you are doing so, and arrange a time to meet with them when you’ve finished (or even as you go) to let them know how your life is being changed by God’s Word.

  • The Servant Songs Treated Unjustly Or Oppressed? Lent Course 2013 3 : Isaiah 50.4-9 19
    18. There clearly are occasions when we should turn the other cheek (Lk 6.29). But what are we to do when it is others who are being The Servant Songs treated unjustly or oppressed? Lent Course 2013 3 : Isaiah 50.4-9 19. Paul encourages Christians not to take disputes amongst themselves to the civil courts. However, he also himself appealed to Caesar when tried, taking advantage of his privileges as a Roman 1. If you had to draw up a job description for a Church leader citizen. In what sort of situations do you think it is right to "appeal to (probably best not a Pope) what would you include near the top? Caesar" or should we always accept injustice? Read the whole of Isaiah chapter 50. 20. Respect for the authority of rulers is clear in the Bible (eg 1 Pt 2.13-17). But Christians have also struggled at times to know when Verses 1-3 are about Israel’s sin, in verses 4-9 the Servant is it was right to oppose legitimate authority and by what means. What speaking whilst verse 10-11 call for obedience to the Servant, and would your attitude to this be?

  • The Interpretation of the Fourth Song of the Servant in the New Testament and the Dead Sea Scrolls
    THE INTERPRETATION OF THE FOURTH SONG OF THE SERVANT IN THE NEW TESTAMENT AND THE DEAD SEA SCROLLS A Paper Submitted to Dr. André LaCocque in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements of CH 472 Second Isaiah and the Servant of the Lord By Marshall H. Lewis Chicago Theological Seminary December 1995 Preface THE FOURTH SONG OF THE SERVANT Isaiah 52:13 - 53:12 Translation by Marshall H. Lewis 52:13My servant now has success; he is exalted and will be lifted up and will be very high. 14Even as many were appalled at you -- his appearance was disfigured beyond the human and his form beyond the sons of man -- 15so he startles many nations. Kings shut their mouths because of him, for they will see what was not recounted to them and they will understand what they did not hear. 53:1Who will believe our report and to whom will the arm of Yahweh be revealed? 2So he grows up before him like the young plant and like the root from dry land. He has no form and no splendor so that we look at him and no appearance so that we take pleasure in him. 3He is despised and rejected by men, a man of pains, knowing sickness, and like one from whom faces are hidden. He is despised and we did not regard him. 4Surely he has carried our sicknesses and borne our pains, but we regarded him stricken, struck by God and afflicted. 5But he was pierced for our transgressions and crushed for our iniquities, the chastisement that made us whole was upon him and with his stripes healing is ours.

    The Suffering Servant Isaiah 52:13-53:13 in the New Testament Wayne O. Cochran [email protected] The Great Isaiah Scroll The Great Isaiah Scroll (1QIsaa) is one of the original seven Dead Sea Scrolls discovered in Qumran in 1947. It is the largest (734 cm) and best preserved of all the biblical scrolls, and the only one that is almost complete. The 54 columns contain all 66 chapters of the Hebrew version of the biblical Book of Isaiah. Dating from ca. 125 BCE, it is also one of the oldest of the Dead Sea Scrolls, some one thousand years older than the oldest manuscripts of the Hebrew Bible known to us before the scrolls' discovery. … Around twenty additional copies of the Book of Isaiah were also found at Qumran (one more copy was discovered further south at Wadi Muraba'at), as well as six pesharim (commentaries) based on the book; Isaiah is also frequently quoted in other scrolls (a literary and religious phenomenon also present in New Testament writings).

  • Jesus the Suffering Servant?
    2019 Jesus the Suffering Servant? UNDERSTANDING THE NEW TESTAMENT’S USE OF ISAIAH’S FOURTH SERVANT SONG PHILIP MAIKKULA Introduction: In the Orthodox liturgical tradition, the third Old Testament reading during Vespers of Holy Friday is taken from Isaiah 52.13-54.1 – often called the fourth servant song of Isaiah.1 On the same liturgical day, in the service of Matins of Holy Friday, typically served the night before, twelve different Gospel accounts of the passion of Jesus are read.2 That the Orthodox liturgical tradition would draw an interpretive link between the death of Jesus and the suffering servant of Isaiah 53 is not surprising.3 Such a connection is be expected in Christian circles. Interpreting the death of Jesus through the fourth servant song, or perhaps more accurately, interpreting the fourth servant song through the death of Jesus, has a rich Christian interpretative tradition dating back to the New Testament, as articulated in the story of Philip and the Ethiopian Official (Acts 8:26-35). While the interpretive link is clear, the theological meaning is less so.4 What meaning should be drawn from this connection? In the modern era, many interpreters have read Isaiah’s fourth servant song in order to explore the theological meaning of atonement or to expound a substitutionary understanding of the death of Jesus.5 But is such a reading justified by the text? 1 The Lenten Triodion, trans. Mother Mary and Archimandrite Kallistos Ware (South Canaan, PA: St. Tikhon’s Seminary Press, 2002), 614. The Orthodox tradition includes Isaiah 54.1 in with this reading which is not recognized by modern scholars as part of the fourth servant song.
