(KJV) Isaiah 7:3

Then said the Lord unto Isaiah, Go forth now to meet Ahaz, thou, and Shearjashub thy son, at the end of the conduit of the upper pool in the highway of the fuller’s field;

The name of Isaish’s oldest son means “a remnant will return.” This name highlighted God’s intention to preserve a faithful group of people to carry out His plan of salvation (Isaiah 11:11-12, 16; 37:4, 31).

(KJV) Isaiah 7:1-25

About 735/734 B.C., the kings of Israel and Aram prepared to attack Judah, but Isaiah told King Ahaz of Judah to trust God to save them. Ahaz, however, refused to accept God’s offer of a miraculous sign, and instead looked to Assyria for help (2 Kings 16:5-18; 2 Chronicles 28:16-21). Isaiah challenged the king’s lack of faith and proceeded to prophesy of a God-given sign anyway – a sign to the whole house of David (nation of Judah). This future sign would be the birth of Immanuel (Isaiah 7:13-17), which means “God with us” (Matthew 1:23), referring to Jesus Christ. Though the Aramean and Israelite invasion would fail, just as God promised (Isaiah 7:7), Judah’s lack of faith and failure to depend on God would finally lead to their destruction. God later would send the Assyrians – the nation they had trusted instead of God – and the Babylonians to devastate the lands of Israel and Judah (2 Kings 17; 25).

(KJV) Isaiah 53:12
Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.

God promised to reward Christ for His sacrificial death, and Christ in turn promises to share His reward with all those who are “strong” in faith. This refers to those who trust and follow Him in doing spiritual battle against sin and Satan through the power of God’s Holy Spirit.

Because of Jesus’ death on the cross, God has reserved and released a great inheritance for His followers. God’s servants have the privilege and responsibility to share the message of the “good news” about forgiveness and new life through Christ Jesus to all people. But any preaching of the gospel that does not focus primarily on how Jesus’ sacrificial death on the cross frees us from the power of sin is doomed to failure. A message that does not emphasize the importance of the cross will be ineffective and will not have the power to transform lives, because it lacks the blessing and presence of Christ and His Son.

To intercede means to plead someone else’s case or to pray for others’ situations and needs. In His agony on the cross, Jesus interceded for sinners (Luke 23:34). His ministry of intercession still continues in heaven (Romans 8:34; Hebrews 7:25) where He serves as our advocate, supporter and defender.

(KJV) Isaiah 53:11

He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.

Christ’s suffering would accomplish God’s purpose and provide spiritual salvation – a personal relationship with God and the opportunity to live forever with Him – for the “many” who believe (who accept Christ and entrust their lives to Him).

(KJV) Isaiah 53:10
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.

It was part of God the Father’s perfect plan to send His Son to die on the cross for a spiritually lost rebellious world (John 3:16). Since part of God’s character is perfect justice, the price for humanity’s rebellion against God had to be paid; but the payment had to be perfect and complete. Only Jesus Christ’s life could have fulfilled that requirement. By making Christ an atoning (“sin covering”) sacrifice for all sin (Leviticus 5:15; 6:5; 19:21). God accomplished His purpose of providing forgiveness for people and bringing those who accept Him back onto a relationship with Himself. That is the meaning of the phrase “he will see his offspring” – His spiritual descendants. He will “prolong His days” means that Christ would rise from the dead and live to reign forever.

(KJV) Isaiah 53:9

And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.

This phrase gives us the hint that Jesus Christ would die alongside the wicked (the two thieves executed beside Him), or that the Roman soldiers planned to bury Him with those criminals. Yet, as prophesied here (“and with the rich in His death”), He was buried in a rich man’s tomb (Matthew 27:57-60). Then again, the verse may simply be pointing out that although Jesus was sinless and did not deserve to die, He took our place and suffered death just like all other humans who die as a consequence of sin.

(KJV) Isaiah 53:7

He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.

Jesus endured His suffering for us patiently and voluntarily (1 Peter 1; Revelation 5:6). He loves us completely and unconditionally and He considered His suffering and sacrifice completely worth the cost because it opened the way for us to have a personal relationship with Him (Hebrews 12:2).

(KJV) Isaiah 53:6

All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.

Part of humankind’s stubborn and rebellious nature includes the pull toward things that dishonor God. Individuals prefer to follow their own selfish ways rather than obey God’s commands and instructions (Romans 6:1). Living to please ourselves rather than living to please God is direct rebellion against Him. This is one of the primary definitions of sin. We are all guilty. Therefore, we all needed Christ to die in our place. He is the only one who ever followed God’s purposes completely, resisting all selfish desires (Philippians 2:3-5). For that reason, His is the only life worthy to pay the full penalty for sin. In order to receive the benefits of His sacrifice, we must admit our sin, accept Christ’s forgiveness, give up our own way and submit our lives to Christ’s leadership and to God’s purposes.

(KJV) Isaiah 53:5

But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

To “transgress” means to cross a line or step outside of a boundary, as in violating a law or committing a crime. All humanity has violated God’s perfect law, and our crime is actually against Him. Our defiance and opposition to most severe penalty: death (Romans 6:23) and eternal separation from God. Christ was crucified (executed by being nailed to an upright cross until He died) because God allowed Him to take our place, as our substitute, and suffer the death penalty that our sin deserved (Psalms 22:16; Zechariah 12:10; John 19:34). By admitting our sin and accepting Christ’s sacrifice as our own, we can receive forgiveness and have peace with God (Romans 5:1).

This healing refers to a complete salvation – a gift from God that brings us into a relationship with Him – with all its benefits, spiritual and physical. Sickness and disease are the result of sin entering the world through humankind’s rebellion against God and of Satan’s activity in the world. John, one of Jesus’ closest disciples, wrote that “the reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil’s work” (1 John 3:8). Christ gave gifts of healing to His church (1 Corinthians 12:9) and commanded His followers to heal the sick as part of their endeavor to promote God’s kingdom purposes and spread His message of complete salvation around the world (Luke 9:1-2, 6; 10:1, 8-9, 19).

(KJV) Isaiah 53:4

Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.

An infirmity usually refers to a physical weakness or illness. This verse is quoted in Matthew 8:17 with reference to Jesus’ ministry of healing – both physically and spiritually. Jesus took our place and our punishment when He suffered and died to pay the full penalty for the sins of humankind. His suffering and sacrifice were so perfect and complete that they provide for deliverance and relief from our sicknesses and diseases as well as from our sins. For this reason, His followers should pray for physical healing.
