Isaiah 53:6

The reason for the Servant to suffer was because of *sins. But the *sins were not his own. The *sins were ours. The Servant did not deserve the punishment. We ought to have suffered that punishment. But his pain frees us from punishment.

The Servant was ready to die

v7 God’s Servant suffered cruelly. But he was willing to accept our punishment. He did not open his mouth to complain. Like a sheep that men take away, to kill or just to remove its wool, so God’s Servant was silent. v8 They *seized God’s Servant. He had nobody to protect him. And nobody to speak on his behalf in court. Nobody cared about his fate. Nobody realised that he would die for our *sins. v9 He died in the company of criminals. But a rich man’s grave was where men buried him. He had *broken no law. He had spoken no lie.
