50:6-7 Anticipating a fuller development in 52:13-53:12, the servant is one who suffers, though God will keep him from shame. Allusions to this verse are found in Mt 26:67; 27:30.
50:8-9 Ultimately these verses speak of the sinless servant.
50:10 A human fears the Lord when he understands that God is far superior and that man is a mere creature. Such fear does not lead to flight but to a trust that can depend on God for protection. The person who fears the Lord listens to what the servant of the Lord says.
50:11 Opposite of the one who fears the Lord and leans on him is the self-reliant person who tries to create light by his own hand. He kindles his own fire to produce light. Such people will experience torment from God.
