Once, as this writer traveled southward on the Missouri-Pacific from St. Louis to Little Rock, a Unitarian noticed my reading the New Testament; and he said: "You Christians have your arithmetic all wrong. If a man be condemned to be imprisoned, there is no law, there is no justice which can compel the lawgiver to accept a substitute for him. For one who was indeed put to death, this is undeniably a prophecy of his resurrection from the dead. What can be the good of it?"

L. 10 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. Isaiah 53:10-12, Part 10 Posted on December 17, 2021 by admin This is a continuation of a consideration of the differences between the Masoretic text and the Septuagint, a translation of the Hebrew before Israel rejected Jesus as Messiah. He was wounded for our transgressions. There is no beauty there that we should desire. (5.) The Father did not find the sufferings and death of His Son something pleasurable (or enjoyable) to behold, but they pleased (satisfied) Him because they fulfilled His great purpose of providing redemption for humankind.

One would think he were going to a bridal, rather than to be burned. There are some who say that there is no reason in sin itself why it should be punished, but that God punishes offenses for the sake of society at large. The Arminian says Christ died for him; and then, poor man, he has but small consolation therefrom, for he says, "Ah! Surely He hath borne our griefs, carried our sorrows. Look at him, and mark if he be not man in soul as well as in body. (Isaiah) 51:10 LXX - The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this. As we have heard of a good woman, who, whenever a poor sailor came to her door, whoever he might be, would always make him welcome, because, she said, "I think I see my own dear son who has been these many years away, and I have never heard of him; but whenever I see a sailor, I think of him, and treat the stranger kindly for my son's sake." Man may put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter; darkness for light, and light for darkness; but this follows him as a dog at the heels of its master, a sense that virtue should be rewarded, and that sin must be punished. Isaiah Chapter 2 1 . He has laid upon him heavy sufferings. Taking our text, then, as a guide, we propose to visit Calvary, hoping to have the help of the Holy Spirit whilst we look upon him who died upon the cross. 12Therefore he shall inherit many, and he shall divide the spoils of the mighty; because his soul was delivered to death: and he was numbered among the transgressors; and he bore the sins of many, and was delivered because of their iniquities. The limit of it is just this: He hath died for sinners; whoever in this congregation inwardly and sorrowfully knows himself to be a sinner, Christ died for him; whoever seeks Christ, shall know Christ died for him; for our sense of need of Christ, and our seeking after Christ, are infallible proofs that Christ died for us. If he had looked to all eternity, he could not have seen anything in us worthy of so great a suffering as that which he endured; but he did it for charity's sake, for love's sake. Very few beautiful people, really beautiful people. We have sinned; we all like sheep have gone astray; and we must be punished for it. But the Father gives the Son. (3.) He is himself perfectly free, and therefore can he undertake for others. The beauty of it is, that this look of Christ, whereby he sees his seed, is one of intense delight. He has divided the spoils, the fruits of his conquest, to all that are his: let us therefore cast in our lot among them. He shall justify not here and there one that is eminent and remarkable, but those of the many, the despised multitude. It is an historical fact, better proved than almost any other which is commonly received as historical, that he did really rise again from the grave.

It looked as if the living church of God would be extinguished altogether; but it was not so, for God did but stamp his foot, and, from all parts of the country, men like Mr. Wesley and Mr. Whitefield, came to the front, and hundreds of others, mighty men of valor, proclaimed the gospel with unusual power, and away went the bats and the owls back to their proper dwelling-place. See how the cruel iron drags through his tender hands! Surely it sets Him alone in history as the only man who could ever qualify to be the Messiah, the suffering servant. This answer left the questioner without reply. . It has been announced to him that to-morrow is his burning day. Because these sufferings would tend to illustrate the divine perfections, and show the justice and mercy of God. Isaiah 9:10 Context. But if you expect your prophecy to be believed, enlarge the number of your jails, and seek for fresh fields for transportation in the interests of society; for if any doctrine can breed villains, this will. "It pleased Jehovah to bruise him; he hath put him to grief." Our text gives this a full solution, in that it says, "He shall make his soul an offering for sin." He made his soul an offering for sin; he himself explains this (Matthew 20:28), that he came to give his life a ransom for many. The reply was: "Indeed, you are right. +. "Who shall say it was due to the Divine Father that Christ should be nailed to the accursed tree, to suffer, bleed, and die, and then be cast into the grave? (5.) 1. Isaiah 53:10 (WYC) and the Lord would defoul him in sickness. What multitudes of men lift up their eyes, and behold the starry orbs of heaven! 10 Yet it was the Lord's will to crush him and cause him to suffer, and though the Lord makes[ a] his life an offering for sin, he will see his offspring and prolong his days, and the will of the Lord will prosper in his hand. For Easter, therefore, I want to focus on three textual problems in Isaiah 52:13-53:12 or what is called Isaiah's "Fourth Servant Song" (the other three are 42:1-4, 49:1-6, and 50:4-9) to show that this text teaches and predicts the vicarious death, burial, and resurrection of the Servant, three key pillars to the gospel of Christ . Come, now, sir, wilt thou now fall flat at the foot of the cross, and rest thy soul's eternal destiny in the pierced hands of Jesus of Nazareth? He was oppressed, he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth ( Isaiah 53:7 ): You remember before Pilate, Pilate marvelled that He didn't answer. They went in the morning after the Sabbath to embalm him. Thus they have rejected him in his essential character, and there has been no effect produced upon their conduct by their cold admiration of his life. never indulge the idea, that Jesus died to make the Father complacent towards us. Your sins have nailed Christ's hands to the cross, your sins have pierced his heart; and his heart is not pierced in vain, nor are those hands nailed there for naught. and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed? The second effect of Christ's death is, "He shall prolong his days." His grace ultimately comes through Jesus Christ, Messiah. "In the fullness of time" God did rend his Son from his bosom, his only-begotten Son, and freely delivered him up for us all. They would not have left him in the cave if they had felt any doubt about his death. They are no more responsible for the death of Jesus Christ than you or I. Isaiah /. And if now you can say. And, you that are not among his seed, see where you are! Anyone standing there, when the thousands upon thousands gloated their eyes with the sufferings of Christians, would have said, "Christianity will die out; but the Colosseum, so firmly built will stand to the end of time;" but lo, the Colosseum is a ruin, and the church of God more firm, more strong, more glorious than ever! Though I do not think that the version is correct, it shows that still it was thought and believed that the Messiah would have a perpetual seed. It was a great commendation of his sufferings, and redounded very much to his honour, that in his sufferings he made intercession for the transgressors, for those that reviled and crucified him; for he prayed, Father, forgive them, thereby showing, not only that he forgave them, but that he was now doing that upon which their forgiveness, and the forgiveness of all other transgressors, were to be founded. If I am to be cast into hell merely that I am to teach to others the tremendousness of the divine holiness, I shall say there is no justice in this; but if my sin intrinsically and of itself deserves the wrath of God, and I am sent to perdition as the result of this fact, I close my lips, and have nothing to say. Many of the Lord's children have a fine candle to go to bed with. And are we ever in our right senses, brethren, till the Holy Spirit really brings us into them? To grief - "With affliction"] For hecheli, the verb, the construction of which seems to be hard and inelegant in this place, the Vulgate reads bocholi, in infirmitate, "with infirmity.". "What for?" Therefore [the Father says] will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong ( Isaiah 53:12 ); "Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and if sons, then heirs, joint-heirs with Jesus Christ" ( Romans 8:16-17 ), as He divides the spoil with the strong. He lives to carry it on. He looks beyond the Roman spear and nail, beyond the Jewish taunt and jeer, up to the Sacred Fount, whence all things flow, and traces the crucifixion of Christ to the breast of Deity. As Christ himself stated it: "I am the first and the last and the Living one; and I was dead, and, behold, I am alive forever more, and I have the keys of death and of Hades" (Revelation 1:18). The whole work was one of benevolence, and Yahweh was pleased with it as a work of pure and disinterested love. There shall be a vicarious suffering; and my vengeance shall be content, and my mercy shall be gratified." Read the 22nd Psalm, and learn how Jesus suffered. Christ was an offering for sin, in the sense of a substitute. Standing in the Colosseum at Rome, I could not, as I looked around on the ruins of that vast house of sin, but praise God that the church of God existed, though the Colosseum is in ruins. In short, (asham) is equivalent to the Latin word piaculum, (56) an expiatory sacrifice. Secondly, that posterity remains. That his great undertaking shall be successful and shall answer expectation: The pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand. Christ comes at his glory by conquest. And yet, it is interesting how so often today we only associate love with physical attraction, and not with the person themselves. God help you to believe in the Lord Jesus, and so to have eternal life! But surely in that suffering, in that death. Much of the glory with which Christ is recompensed, and the spoil which he has divided, consists in the vast multitudes of willing, faithful, loyal subjects, that shall be brought in to him; for so some read it: I will give many to him, and he shall obtain many for a spoil. They hurry from the house silently and noiselessly, before the mother is awake. When thou shalt make his soul an offering The word nephesh, soul, is frequently used in Hebrew to signify life. Why, beloved, it was because the Father bruised him. He is himself righteous, and of his righteousness have all we received. We do not read here that the Lord Christ has followers. He could not have wanted to provide it if there was no necessity. That he bruised him so as to put him to grief. It only proves I may be saved if I mind what I am after. I hear a great talk about the example of Christ having great effect upon ungodly men; but I do not believe it, and certainly have never seen it. glorious doctrine! Come, and see how he loved us, see what he did for us. That he shall live to see his seed. 3.

The word, that incorruptible see, of which they are born again, is his word; the Spirit, the great author of their regeneration, is his Spirit; and it is his image that is impressed upon them. The Septuagint (also known as the LXX) is a translation of the Hebrew Bible into the Greek language. They nail him to the tree. There was needed, also, one of the same nature with us. I pray that it may be so. When you die you will die for yourselves; when Christ died, he died for you, if you be a believer in him. "We love him because he first loved us." One hundred years ago or so, throughout the most of our Dissenting churches, a sort of Unitarianism was triumphant. How can it be done? Oh, but the joy we shall have in being there the delight in beholding his face; yet, if all our joys are put together, they will not equal the joy that he will have when he finds them all there for whom he shed his blood all whom the Father gave him all who gave themselves to him all who were born as his seed not one lost! There are some of God's elect here, and he will have you. [2.] Piaculum committere means literally to commit a sacrifice, that is, to commit a crime for which a sacrifice is required. Ed. Out of the land of the living. He shall see the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied ( Isaiah 53:10-11 ): That is, He travailed in order that you might be born again. Throughout the New Testament the salvation of men is uniformly attributed to the death of Christ. And people make mistakes many times in relationships because we relate on the physical, rather than upon the true nature of a person.Now, "He is despised and rejected of men; He is a man of sorrows, He's acquainted with grief.". The salvation of souls is a great satisfaction to the Lord Jesus. 2. (4.) Missionaries attempt to prove that "Almah" means a "virgin" by referring to an ancient Greek translation of the Bible, called the Septuagint, which was carried out by 70 rabbis approximately 165 years before Jesus. He has determined that you shall not do what you have vowed. In order to understand this better, we must first know that we are guilty before God, so that we may be accursed and detestable in his presence. ; Isaiah 53:11 Or (with Masoretic Text) 11 He will see the fruit of his suffering / and will be satisfied; Isaiah 53:11 Or by knowledge of him; Isaiah 53:12 Or many; Isaiah 53:12 Or numerous Love is blind, they say. His soul - The word rendered here soul ( nephesh) means properly breath, spirit, the life, the vital principle Genesis 1:20-30; Genesis 9:4; Leviticus 17:11; Deuteronomy 12:23. It would not be worth angels singing "Glory to God in the highest" about it, I should think. Man for his sin was condemned to eternal fire; when God took Christ to be the substitute, it is true, he did not send Christ into eternal fire, but he poured upon him grief so desperate, that it was a valid payment for even an eternity of fire. That fellowship that He can bring to us with the Father. If there be a universal redemption of all, then all men are redeemed. But beyond the sorrow of death is the joy of the resurrection. '", "Yes, sir," says such a sinner, "I feel that if God should smite me now, without hope or offer of mercy, to the lowest hell, I should only have what I justly deserve; and I feel that if I be not punished for my sins, or if there be not some plan found by which my sin can be punished in another, I cannot understand how God can be just at all: how shall he be Judge of all the earth, if he suffer offenses to go unpunished?" Can it possibly be conceived that there should be a redemption of men, and those men not redeemed? He is overwhelmed with grief. No; the blood-stained page of that book, the page which makes both past and future glorious with golden words, that blood-stained page, I say, was as much written of Jehovah, as any other. Do not think that I am too familiar. WHAT myriads of eyes are casting their glances at the sun! A mere man could at most only substitute for one other man. Now, mark: when you see Christ going up the Mount of Doom, you see man going there: when you see Christ hurled upon his back, upon the wooden cross, you see the whole company of his elect there; and when you see the nails driven through his blessed hands and feet, it is the whole body of his Church who there, in their substitute, are nailed to the tree. There is not a child of his, born in any out-of-the-way place, but what he perceives him at once. He waited his forty days, and then, with shouts of sacred song, he "led captivity captive, and ascended up on high." 10-11 ***** ISAIAH 53. "Father, I commit my soul to thee, I deposit it in thy hands, as the life of a sacrifice and the price of pardons." And they should have started chapter 53 with verse Isaiah 52:13 , because the last three verses here definitely fit in with Isaiah 53:1-12 . but the great arms of the Eternal Father are ready to save you as you are, because the great work of Christ has effected all that is wanted before God for the acceptance of the vilest sinner. Isaiah{gr.Esaias} 53 > > KJV. Oh, I was excited. The grace and glories of his state of exaltation; and the graces he confers on us are not the least of the glories conferred on him. That he shall himself continue to take care of the affairs of this numerous family: He shall prolong his days. And it's a very convenient way to reference. God has commanded him to take his son, his only son, and slay him upon the mountain as a sacrifice. [i] His thoughts on these difficulties can be summarized in the following three points: The servant is never specifically identified. Beloved, we shall have many with us, whilst this morning we turn our face to the Mount of Calvary. Masoretic Text. Here Isaiah declares that it was so shocking. The idea is, that he was himself innocent, and that he gave up his soul or life in order to make an expiation for sin - as the innocent animal in sacrifice was offered to God as an acknowledgment of guilt. See also. This, my brethren, was the climax of the Saviour's woe, that his Father turned away from him, and put him to grief. The death of Christ is traceable to God the Father. All this is found in the sin-offering; for thou needest not find it. septuagint isaiah 53:10 "The Lord is willing to cleanse him of the injury. It needs one other condition to be fulfilled. There was not so much as an atom of chance work in the Saviour's death. The gallant vessel of the church ploughed the red waves of a crimson sea, her prow scarlet with gore, but the ship itself was the better for its washing, and sailed all the more gallantly because of boisterous winds. 6All we as sheep have gone astray; every one has gone astray in his way; and the Lord gave him up for our sins. He is still ready to be your strong Helper, and to do for you what he did for needy ones in the days of his sojourn here below. If you do not want it it is no hardship that it is not provided for you; but if you really feel that you want it, you are God's elect. What better testimony can we bear to the love and faithfulness of God than the testimony of a substitution eminently satisfactory for all them that believe on Christ? I read in one of the apocrypha books, one of the early writings, a description of Paul the apostle. Once, as this writer traveled southward on the Missouri-Pacific from St. Louis to Little Rock, a Unitarian noticed my reading the New Testament; and he said: "You Christians have your arithmetic all wrong. If a man be condemned to be imprisoned, there is no law, there is no justice which can compel the lawgiver to accept a substitute for him. For one who was indeed put to death, this is undeniably a prophecy of his resurrection from the dead. What can be the good of it?" Now as a general rule our bodies have an automatic reflex kind of an action, when we see a blow coming we give with the blow so it cushions the blow. Then the victim to be offered was, on all occasions, a spotless one. But a little further, Christ's coming into the world to die was the effect of the Father's will and pleasure. As many were astonished at thee; his visage [or face] was so marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men ( Isaiah 52:14 ): In the Hebrew this reads more literally, "His face was so marred that He could not be recognized as a man or as a human being. Why did God provide a sin-offering but for sinners? Some connect this with the preceding clause, "he shall see a seed that shall prolong its days" b; for Christ will never want issue, his church will never fail, his seed will endure for ever, Psalms 89:29. 4He bears our sins, and is pained for us: yet we accounted him to be in trouble, and in suffering, and in affliction. And you may get bounced all over, but you're reacting and coordinating with it and thus it's a lot easier to take. b "videbit semen quod prolongabit dies", Cocceius; "videbit semen longaevum", V. L. 10 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. Isaiah 53:10-12, Part 10 Posted on December 17, 2021 by admin This is a continuation of a consideration of the differences between the Masoretic text and the Septuagint, a translation of the Hebrew before Israel rejected Jesus as Messiah. He was wounded for our transgressions. There is no beauty there that we should desire. (5.) The Father did not find the sufferings and death of His Son something pleasurable (or enjoyable) to behold, but they pleased (satisfied) Him because they fulfilled His great purpose of providing redemption for humankind. This is none other than God's only-begotten Son; this is he who made the worlds; this is the express image of his Father's person, the brightness of Jehovah's glory! Note, (1.) One would think he were going to a bridal, rather than to be burned. There are some who say that there is no reason in sin itself why it should be punished, but that God punishes offenses for the sake of society at large. The Arminian says Christ died for him; and then, poor man, he has but small consolation therefrom, for he says, "Ah! Surely He hath borne our griefs, carried our sorrows. Look at him, and mark if he be not man in soul as well as in body. (Isaiah) 51:10 LXX - The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this. As we have heard of a good woman, who, whenever a poor sailor came to her door, whoever he might be, would always make him welcome, because, she said, "I think I see my own dear son who has been these many years away, and I have never heard of him; but whenever I see a sailor, I think of him, and treat the stranger kindly for my son's sake." Man may put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter; darkness for light, and light for darkness; but this follows him as a dog at the heels of its master, a sense that virtue should be rewarded, and that sin must be punished. Isaiah Chapter 2 1 . He has laid upon him heavy sufferings. Taking our text, then, as a guide, we propose to visit Calvary, hoping to have the help of the Holy Spirit whilst we look upon him who died upon the cross. 12Therefore he shall inherit many, and he shall divide the spoils of the mighty; because his soul was delivered to death: and he was numbered among the transgressors; and he bore the sins of many, and was delivered because of their iniquities. The limit of it is just this: He hath died for sinners; whoever in this congregation inwardly and sorrowfully knows himself to be a sinner, Christ died for him; whoever seeks Christ, shall know Christ died for him; for our sense of need of Christ, and our seeking after Christ, are infallible proofs that Christ died for us. If he had looked to all eternity, he could not have seen anything in us worthy of so great a suffering as that which he endured; but he did it for charity's sake, for love's sake. Very few beautiful people, really beautiful people. We have sinned; we all like sheep have gone astray; and we must be punished for it. But the Father gives the Son. (3.) He is himself perfectly free, and therefore can he undertake for others. The beauty of it is, that this look of Christ, whereby he sees his seed, is one of intense delight. He has divided the spoils, the fruits of his conquest, to all that are his: let us therefore cast in our lot among them. He shall justify not here and there one that is eminent and remarkable, but those of the many, the despised multitude. It is an historical fact, better proved than almost any other which is commonly received as historical, that he did really rise again from the grave. Psalms 127:3-5; Psalms 128:6; Proverbs 17:6), as was living a long life (cf. They shouted in their fires, and praised God on their racks. It looked as if the living church of God would be extinguished altogether; but it was not so, for God did but stamp his foot, and, from all parts of the country, men like Mr. Wesley and Mr. Whitefield, came to the front, and hundreds of others, mighty men of valor, proclaimed the gospel with unusual power, and away went the bats and the owls back to their proper dwelling-place. See how the cruel iron drags through his tender hands! Surely it sets Him alone in history as the only man who could ever qualify to be the Messiah, the suffering servant. This answer left the questioner without reply. . It has been announced to him that to-morrow is his burning day. Because these sufferings would tend to illustrate the divine perfections, and show the justice and mercy of God. Isaiah 9:10 Context. But if you expect your prophecy to be believed, enlarge the number of your jails, and seek for fresh fields for transportation in the interests of society; for if any doctrine can breed villains, this will. "It pleased Jehovah to bruise him; he hath put him to grief." Our text gives this a full solution, in that it says, "He shall make his soul an offering for sin." He made his soul an offering for sin; he himself explains this (Matthew 20:28), that he came to give his life a ransom for many. The reply was: "Indeed, you are right. +. "Who shall say it was due to the Divine Father that Christ should be nailed to the accursed tree, to suffer, bleed, and die, and then be cast into the grave? (5.) 1. Isaiah 53:10 (WYC) and the Lord would defoul him in sickness. What multitudes of men lift up their eyes, and behold the starry orbs of heaven! 10 Yet it was the Lord's will to crush him and cause him to suffer, and though the Lord makes[ a] his life an offering for sin, he will see his offspring and prolong his days, and the will of the Lord will prosper in his hand. For Easter, therefore, I want to focus on three textual problems in Isaiah 52:13-53:12 or what is called Isaiah's "Fourth Servant Song" (the other three are 42:1-4, 49:1-6, and 50:4-9) to show that this text teaches and predicts the vicarious death, burial, and resurrection of the Servant, three key pillars to the gospel of Christ . Come, now, sir, wilt thou now fall flat at the foot of the cross, and rest thy soul's eternal destiny in the pierced hands of Jesus of Nazareth? He was oppressed, he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth ( Isaiah 53:7 ): You remember before Pilate, Pilate marvelled that He didn't answer. They went in the morning after the Sabbath to embalm him. Thus they have rejected him in his essential character, and there has been no effect produced upon their conduct by their cold admiration of his life. never indulge the idea, that Jesus died to make the Father complacent towards us. Your sins have nailed Christ's hands to the cross, your sins have pierced his heart; and his heart is not pierced in vain, nor are those hands nailed there for naught. and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed? The second effect of Christ's death is, "He shall prolong his days." His grace ultimately comes through Jesus Christ, Messiah. "In the fullness of time" God did rend his Son from his bosom, his only-begotten Son, and freely delivered him up for us all. They would not have left him in the cave if they had felt any doubt about his death. They are no more responsible for the death of Jesus Christ than you or I. Isaiah /. And if now you can say. And, you that are not among his seed, see where you are! Anyone standing there, when the thousands upon thousands gloated their eyes with the sufferings of Christians, would have said, "Christianity will die out; but the Colosseum, so firmly built will stand to the end of time;" but lo, the Colosseum is a ruin, and the church of God more firm, more strong, more glorious than ever! Though I do not think that the version is correct, it shows that still it was thought and believed that the Messiah would have a perpetual seed. It was a great commendation of his sufferings, and redounded very much to his honour, that in his sufferings he made intercession for the transgressors, for those that reviled and crucified him; for he prayed, Father, forgive them, thereby showing, not only that he forgave them, but that he was now doing that upon which their forgiveness, and the forgiveness of all other transgressors, were to be founded. If I am to be cast into hell merely that I am to teach to others the tremendousness of the divine holiness, I shall say there is no justice in this; but if my sin intrinsically and of itself deserves the wrath of God, and I am sent to perdition as the result of this fact, I close my lips, and have nothing to say. Many of the Lord's children have a fine candle to go to bed with. And are we ever in our right senses, brethren, till the Holy Spirit really brings us into them? To grief - "With affliction"] For hecheli, the verb, the construction of which seems to be hard and inelegant in this place, the Vulgate reads bocholi, in infirmitate, "with infirmity.". "What for?" Therefore [the Father says] will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong ( Isaiah 53:12 ); "Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and if sons, then heirs, joint-heirs with Jesus Christ" ( Romans 8:16-17 ), as He divides the spoil with the strong. He lives to carry it on. He looks beyond the Roman spear and nail, beyond the Jewish taunt and jeer, up to the Sacred Fount, whence all things flow, and traces the crucifixion of Christ to the breast of Deity. As Christ himself stated it: "I am the first and the last and the Living one; and I was dead, and, behold, I am alive forever more, and I have the keys of death and of Hades" (Revelation 1:18). The whole work was one of benevolence, and Yahweh was pleased with it as a work of pure and disinterested love. There shall be a vicarious suffering; and my vengeance shall be content, and my mercy shall be gratified." Read the 22nd Psalm, and learn how Jesus suffered. Christ was an offering for sin, in the sense of a substitute. Standing in the Colosseum at Rome, I could not, as I looked around on the ruins of that vast house of sin, but praise God that the church of God existed, though the Colosseum is in ruins. In short, (asham) is equivalent to the Latin word piaculum, (56) an expiatory sacrifice. Secondly, that posterity remains. That his great undertaking shall be successful and shall answer expectation: The pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand. Christ comes at his glory by conquest. And yet, it is interesting how so often today we only associate love with physical attraction, and not with the person themselves. God help you to believe in the Lord Jesus, and so to have eternal life! But surely in that suffering, in that death. Much of the glory with which Christ is recompensed, and the spoil which he has divided, consists in the vast multitudes of willing, faithful, loyal subjects, that shall be brought in to him; for so some read it: I will give many to him, and he shall obtain many for a spoil. They hurry from the house silently and noiselessly, before the mother is awake. When thou shalt make his soul an offering The word nephesh, soul, is frequently used in Hebrew to signify life. Why, beloved, it was because the Father bruised him. He is himself righteous, and of his righteousness have all we received. We do not read here that the Lord Christ has followers. He could not have wanted to provide it if there was no necessity. That he bruised him so as to put him to grief. It only proves I may be saved if I mind what I am after. I hear a great talk about the example of Christ having great effect upon ungodly men; but I do not believe it, and certainly have never seen it. glorious doctrine! Come, and see how he loved us, see what he did for us. That he shall live to see his seed. 3. It is, at present, the caricature of a virtue; but it is well meant, and will come right, and the Lord sees it as it will be, and he rejoices in it.
