Isaías 53:1-6

1 Quem creu em nossa mensagem?E a quem foi revelado o braço do SENHOR?

2 Ele cresceu diante dele como um broto tenroe como uma raiz saída de uma terra seca.Ele não tinha qualquer beleza ou majestade que nos atraísse,nada havia em sua aparência para que o desejássemos.

3 Foi desprezado e rejeitado pelos homens,um homem de dores e experimentado no sofrimento.Como alguém de quem os homens escondem o rosto,foi desprezado, e nós não o tínhamos em estima.

4 Certamente ele tomou sobre si as nossas enfermidadese sobre si levou as nossas doenças;contudo nós o consideramos castigado por Deus,por Deus atingido e afligido.

5 Mas ele foi traspassado por causa das nossas transgressões,foi esmagado por causa de nossas iniquidades;o castigo que nos trouxe paz estava sobre ele,e pelas suas feridas fomos curados.

6 Todos nós, como ovelhas, nos desviamos,cada um de nós se voltou para o seu próprio caminho;e o SENHOR fez cair sobre elea iniquidade de todos nós.

Isaías 53:1-6 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO ISAIAH 53

This chapter treats of the mean appearance of Christ in human nature, his sufferings in it, and the glory that should follow. It begins with a complaint of the small number of those that believed the report concerning him, the power of God not being exerted, Isa 53:1, the reason of this general disbelief was the meanness of his outward circumstances, and the want of comeliness in him; hence he was treated with general neglect and contempt, Isa 52:2,3 was the more unkind and ungenerous, since it was the griefs and sorrows of others he bore, and their sins also, for which he was wounded and bruised, that they might have healing, Isa 53:4-6, yet he took and bore all patiently, like a lamb at the slaughter, and the sheep under the shearer, Isa 53:7, which was the more extraordinary, since he was used, both in life and at death, in so rigorous and barbarous a manner, and all for the sins of others, having been guilty of none himself, Isa 53:8,9, and, what is most amazing, the Lord himself had a hand in grieving and bruising him, Isa 53:10, though for his encouragement, and a reward to him, as man and Mediator, for all his sufferings, it is intimated that he should succeed and prosper, have a numerous issue, should justify many, and have a portion and spoil divided with the great and mighty, Isa 53:10-12.
