THE SUFFERING SERVANT OF
JEHOVAH
LESSON TEXT —Isa. 52:13-53:12

we are healed.
PRIMARY TOPlC—Jesus’ Love for us.
JUNIOR TOPlC—lesus’ Love for Us.
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP
IC — What Our Salvation Cost.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP
IC —The Suffering Savior.
This prophecy is the grand center of
the Old Testament. The bond servant
of Jehovah with great wisdom glori
ously executes the divine purpose at
the cost of great suffering.
I. The Servant’s Triumph (52:13-15).
By the servant here is meant the
coming Messiah (42:1).
1. His wisdom (v. 13).
“He will (leal prudently,” for his
name is “Counsellor” (0:0). He was
filled with the spirit of wisdom and
understanding (11:2).
2. He shall be exalted (v. 13).
He was to be extolled and magnified
because lie was the “Mighty God
(9:6), even Immanuel." Because of
Christ’s devotion to Ilis task of re
demption, God has highly exalted
Him and given Him a name which is
above every name (Phil. 2:9).
3. The appearance of the Servanc
(v. 14).
Because of His marred “visage,
He wholly disappointed the expecta
tion of the carnal minds who looked
for outward signs of royalty and
worldy greatness. Jesus, as Jeho
vah’s servant, was tortured and beat
en by men as He went about doing
the business committed to him.
4. The issue of His ministry (v. 15).
“He shall sprinkle many nations.”
This reveals Him as the great High
Priest sprinkling the nations with
His blood, cleansing them from their
sins. Just as the people were aston
ished with the silence of Jesus in
the midst of His shameful treatment,
so shall the kings and great men of
the earth be dumb before Him when
the suffering Servant shall be exalted.
11. The Servant Despised and Re
jected (53:1-3).
1. The unbelief of the Jews (v. 1).
(1) They disbelieved the words of
the prophets.
(2) They did not recognize the
hand of the I ord in the miracles and
wonders which He wrought.
2. The origin of the Servant (v. 2).
He sprang out of the stump of
Judaism. The sad condition of the
people at that time is expressed by
“dry corn.”
3. Tlie Man of Sorrows (v, 3).
He was afflicted and rejected.
ill. The Vicarious Suffering of the
Servant (53:4-6).
1. His griefs and sorrows were
ours (v. 4). This awful suffering was
looked upon by the world as occa
sioned by sin—“we did esteem Him
stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.”
2. He was beaten for us (v. 5).
That which was our due was meted
out to Him. Observe the words,
“wounded,” “bruised,” “despised.”
“stripes”—how awful they picture His
treatment, and yet “our” shows that
His suffering was vicarious.
3. The reason for (v. 6).
Ail humanity, Jews and Gentiles,
had gone astray. God laid upon Him
the iniquity of us all.
IV. The Death of the Servant
(53:7-9).
1. The strange silence (v. 7).
He opened not His mouth. He
went as a lamb to the slaughter. “He
answered them never a word, inso
much that the governor marveled
greatly” (Matt. 27:14).
2. Unconcern of multitude (v. 8).
They failed to discern the fact that
He suffered in their stead.
3. Buried with the wicked and the
rich (v. 9).
The prophecy was fulfilled in His
crucifixion between two thieves and
burial in Joseph's tomb.
V. The Servant's Ultimate Victory
(vv. 10-12).
1. His sufferings expressed the di
vine will (v. 10).
The I.ord Himself laid this burden
upon Him. and through His suffer
ings the law was vindicated and re
demption was accomplished.
2. A spiritual progeny resulted
from His death, (v. 10).
The fundamental law of the uni
verse, which is life out of death,
found supreme expression in His
death on the cross (John 12:24).
3. Through death shall come to
realization His fondest hope (v. li)
He shall see the travail of His soul
and shall he satisfied.
4. The divine reward (v. 12).
Tiie divine Conqueror shall share
the spoils of victory.
He Bares Our Sicknesses
When the even was come, they
brought unto Him many that were
possessed with devils; and He cast
out the spirits with His word, and
healed nil that were sick; that it
might he fulfilled which was spoken
by Esaias the prophet, saying. Him
self took our infirmities, and bare
our sicknesses.—Matthew 8:10, 17.
Possible With God
Ihe things which are impossible
with men are possible with God.

she looks like the older sister
rather than the mother of her chil

“I’m middle-aged,” she’ll declare,
“and not trying to hide the fact.
Why should I? Middle age has a lot
in its favor—that is, if you’re well
and healthy.
“Sick? Never had a doctor in my life
except when my babies came. Never
had the habit of dosing myself with

Inanimate Confidant
A New Yorker who went to be psy
chonalyzed was unable to co-operate
fully in tlie diagnosis of his mental
obstacles because he could not remem
ber liis dreams. They grew vague or
escaped him entirely by the time he
made his daily visit: to tlie expert.
He lias solved the problem. A dic
taphone now stands beside his bed,
and every morning on awakening lie
finds tlie memory of liis subconscious
mental wanderings fresh enougli to re
late them to the machine. Then lie
makes a transcript for the psycho
analyst and smashes the wax cylinders.

showed ninety pounds.
