Isaiah 53:10-12
The crushed Servant justifies many and is exalted.
10 Yet it pleased Yahweh to bruise him. He has caused him to suffer. When you make his soul an offering for sin, he will see his offspring. He will prolong his days and Yahweh’s pleasure will prosper in his hand.
11 After the suffering of his soul, he will see the light and be satisfied. My righteous servant will justify many by the knowledge of himself; and he will bear their iniquities.
12 Therefore I will give him a portion with the great. He will divide the plunder with the strong; because he poured out his soul to death and was counted with the transgressors; yet he bore the sins of many and made intercession for the transgressors.
The crushed Servant justifies many and is exalted.
To reveal the LORD’s redemptive purpose in the Servant’s suffering and his ultimate vindication and reward.
In the context of Israel's need for restoration, the servant's role transcends national deliverance, addressing the deeper problem of sin and guilt.
The Suffering Servant Bears Sin and Is Vindicated by the LORD
The LORD saves sinners through the innocent Servant who suffers in their place, bears their sin, and is vindicated after offering himself for many.
