ISAIAH 53:11 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
Isa 53:10Isa 53:12
He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.
The promise 'Out of his anguish he shall see light; he shall find satisfaction through his knowledge. The righteous one, my servant, shall make many righteous, and he shall bear their iniquities' affirms that the servant's suffering culminates in vindication and achievement of purpose. The servant gains insight ('knowledge') through anguish and emerges into light. The declaration that the servant 'shall make many righteous' establishes the universal redemptive scope: his suffering benefits not one people alone but many. Bearing iniquities (nasa'a avon) invokes the substitutionary atonement language central to Christian interpretation.
