Isaiah 53:10-11 Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he has put him to grief: when you shall make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed… 1. A relation implied betwixt Christ and believers. They are "His seed," such as in the next verse are said to be "justified" by Him. 2. A prophecy of the event that should follow Christ's sufferings. Our Lord Jesus should not only have a seed, but a numerous seed. 3. Considering the words as a promise they hold out this — that though our Lord Jesus suffer and die He shall not only have a seed, but shall "see His seed." He shall outlive His sufferings and death and shall be delighted in seeing them who shall get the good of His sufferings. (J. Durham.) Parallel Verses KJV: 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. |
