“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 KJV
There is no human in history who fulfilled Isaiah’s prophecy in such detail except the Lord Jesus Christ, and Isaiah prophesied this over seven hundred years before Christ! Even though it pleased Yahweh to crush Him with grief, He will be restored to favour. After His soul becomes a guilt-offering, He will gaze upon His many offerings and prolong His days. And through Him, Yahweh’s deepest desires will be accomplished. This points to the resurrection of Jesus Christ Who died and rose again to the place of highest honour. Through Christ’s sacrifice, the birth of spiritual offspring will result, and He will see His spiritual offspring and enjoy living His life through them, from generation to generation prolonging His days. The life we live is no longer our own as we walk away in close fellowship with Christ. A people in His image is the joy that was set before Him! Glory to God!
