     [ Illustration: Today's painting is of the visage of Christ, which was marred more than any man's, as mentioned in verse 14. ]



SPECIAL NOTE:

[ I will again be working through the Scriptures from Genesis to Revelation. I will be adding links, resources, images, and the like, upgrading the former work-through which began with the 2013-10-12 posting which can be found, along with the full Genesis to Revelation postings, in the Archive Page. Postings will be at midnight Eastern Time, as I am able. However, no chapters will be skipped, even though a posting may be late. And all postings will be housed in the Archive Page. ]



     Explanation: The subject of Isaiah 52 is the redemption of God's people by one (namely Christ - Isaiah 50:6; Matthew 26:67-68; Matthew 27:27-30; Luke 22:64) whose visage (appearance) was marred beyond recognition. The chapter opens with a call to God's people to clothe themselves in purity and to shake off their captivity (1-2).
     The LORD tells them that they have sold themselves for nothing; and they will be redeemed without a ransom being paid to their blasphemous captors; and his people will know that it is the LORD who has prophesied these things (3-6).
     He tells them of his messenger whose feet are beautiful because he comes with good tidings of peace and salvation and of God's kingdom (7).
     Their watchmen will see it and announce it; and they will rejoice and sing; and all the nations of the earth will see God's salvation (8-10).
     So, again, they are told to depart from their unclean surroundings, but not with haste, because the LORD will be their rear-guard (11-12).
     And the LORD's servant (The Messiah) will be exalted; and, as many were astonished at his marred visage, so many will see, and hear, and consider him; and he will sprinkle (cleanse) many nations (13-15).

RESOURCES

PLEASE NOTE: Use the resources on this and other sites thoughtfully, particularly the commentaries and encyclopedias. I have attempted to list conservative, scholarly resources. However, some providers use liberal or liberal-influenced commentaries such as the Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges (in Bible Hub). Such commentaries are undoubtedly included by the provider for the wealth of useful information and comments which they provide. By consulting several commentaries, it should be fairly easy to sort out the wheat from the chaff. If, however, you would like personal assistance, write to me at AD LIB ARTS EMAIL.

E. Cycle 5 (52:1 - 57:13)

1. Blessing: On Zion and Foreign Converts by the Redeemer (52:1 - 56:8)

a. Blessing of Redemption Through the Suffering Messiah (52:1 - 53:12)


1 Awake,
awake;
put on thy strength,
O Zion;
put on thy beautiful garments,
O Jerusalem,
the holy city:
for henceforth there shall no more come into thee
the uncircumcised
and the unclean.
2 Shake thyself from the dust;
arise,
and sit down,
O Jerusalem:
loose thyself from the bands of thy neck,
O captive daughter of Zion.


     3 For thus saith the LORD, Ye have sold yourselves for nought; and ye shall be redeemed without money. 4 For thus saith the Lord GOD, My people went down aforetime into Egypt to sojourn there; and the Assyrian oppressed them without cause. 5 Now therefore, what have I here, saith the LORD, that my people is taken away for nought? they that rule over them make them to howl, saith the LORD; and my name continually every day is blasphemed. 6 Therefore my people shall know my name: therefore they shall know in that day that I am he that doth speak: behold, it is I [behold me].



11 Depart ye,
depart ye,
go ye out from thence,
touch no unclean thing;
go ye out of the midst of her;
be ye clean,
that bear the vessels of the LORD.
12 For ye shall not go out with haste,
nor go by flight:
for the LORD will go before you;
and the God of Israel will be your rereward.


13 Behold,
my servant shall deal prudently,
he shall be exalted
and extolled,
and be very high.
14 As many were astonied at thee;
his visage was so marred
more than any man,
and his form
more than the sons of men:
15 So shall he sprinkle many nations;
the kings shall shut their mouths at him:
for that which had not been told them
shall they see;
and that which they had not heard
shall they consider.
