Isaiah 61

The Spirit of the Sovereign 

Lord

 is on me,    because the Lord has anointed me    to proclaim good news to the poor.

He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,

    to proclaim freedom for the captives

    and release from darkness for the prisoners,

2 

to proclaim the year of the 

Lord

’s favor…. Slide7

Isaiah 53

3

He was despised and rejected by mankind,    a man of suffering, and familiar with pain.Like one from whom people hide their faces

    he was despised, and we held him in low esteem.

4 

Surely he took up our pain

    and bore our suffering,

yet we considered him punished by God,

    stricken by him, and afflicted

.Slide8

Isaiah 53

5 

But he was pierced for our transgressions,

    he was crushed for our iniquities;the punishment that brought us peace was on him,    and by his wounds we are healed.

6 

We all, like sheep, have gone astray,

    each of us has turned to our own way;

and the 

Lord

 has laid on him

    the iniquity of us all

.Slide9

Isaiah 53

Yet it was the 

Lord

’s will to crush him and cause him to suffer….11 After he has suffered,    he will see the light of

life

 and be

satisfied;

by his

knowledge

 my righteous servant will justify many,

    and he will bear their iniquities
