For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.

The verse 2 is found in chapter 53 of Isaiah. The Servant is rejected and despised, yet he bears sicknesses, pains, and transgressions that are not presented simply as his own. The language of substitution reaches its center when he is said to be wounded for the rebellion of others. The image of the lamb and sheep expresses willingness, silence under oppression, and self-giving.
Meditate on this verse and share your reflection or spiritual experience with the community. Your comments will enrich everyone's learning.
