In the Hebrew context, "sweet cane" (קָנֶה בּוֹשֶׂם, qaneh bosem) was a valuable commodity, often imported and used in sacred rituals.

This is a part of the fundamental idea running through the third part of Isaiah, closely connected with the mediatorial office of the "Servant of the Lord," who "bare the sin of many" (Isaiah 53:12), and on whom "the Lord laid the iniquity of us all" (Isaiah 53:6). Israel, both during the Captivity and before, had accumulated a heavy load of sin, not merely by negligence, but by overt acts of guilt (see Isaiah 1:4, 15, 21-23, etc.).Parallel Commentaries ...
