“He shall not fail nor be discouraged, till he have set judgment in the earth: and the isles shall wait for his law.”
The promise that the servant will 'faithfully bring forth justice' and will not 'grow dim or be discouraged till he has established justice in the earth' depicts relentless commitment to God's purposes. The servant's unwavering persistence 'till justice is established in the earth' gives an eschatological dimension to the servant's mission: the work continues until God's purposes pervade all creation. The refusal to 'grow dim or be discouraged' suggests the servant endures opposition and setback without compromise. This verse's global scope—'all the earth'—indicates that the servant's justice-work transcends Israel to embrace all humanity.
