The Exaltation of Jesus (4 of 4)
Series: Born to Die

Isaiah 53:10-12

by his knowledge shall the righteous one, my servant,

yet he bore the sin of many,
and makes intercession for the transgressors.

"Was it not necessary that the Christ should suffer these things and enter into his glory?" (Luke 24:26; cf. vv. 25, 27-28).
"This Jesus, delivered up according to the definite plan and foreknowledge of God, you crucified and killed by the hands of lawless men" (Acts 2:23).
The Servant (Jesus) was seen as a failure. His life ended in crucifixion. But verse 10 says He will have many descendents ("he shall see his offspring"); He will live a long l ...
