In his humiliation his judgment was taken away: His generation who shall declare? For his life is taken from the earth.

'IN HIS HUMILIATION HIS JUDGEMENT WAS TAKEN AWAY'-This is the Septuagint rendering of Isaiah 2:8. The NASV of Isaiah 2:8. translated from the Hebrew reads, 'By oppression and judgement He was taken away'. 'It speaks of the time during Jesus' trial when He had no one to speak in His defense, no friends in the court. And "judgement" being taken away means that justice,. just sentence, was denied Him.' (Reese p. 336)

'HUMILIATION'-5014. tapeinosis tap-i'-no-sis; from 5013; depression (in rank or feeling): -humiliation, be made low, low estate, vile.

-In the mind of the Hebrew translators there isn't much difference between "oppression" and "humiliation".

'HIS GENERATION WHO SHALL DECLARE?'-NASV Isaiah 2:8 'And as for His generation, who considered..' Could mean, who shall declare to His generation the real meaning of His death?

'TAKEN FROM THE EARTH'-'hurried to. violent death' (Reese p. 337)
