He describes the suffering of the Messiah and then writes the reasons for His suffering: He was pierced for our transgressions (rebellion) and crushed for our iniquities (depravity). The first time we come across this passage is when Isaiah describes what about happen to Jesus. Isaiah 53:5Īnd He Himself bore our sins in His body on the cross, so that we might die to sin and live to righteousness for by His wounds you were healed. The chastening for our well-being fell upon HimĪnd by His scourging we are healed. It is rich in detail of Christ’s suffering and crucifixion of His saving work for each of us.īut He was pierced through for our transgressions, John McArthur refers to this passage as “the first gospel.” No passage provides a clearer explanation of Christ’s atoning work for sinners. However, the passage in Isaiah is one of the most renowned Old Testament passages because it prophesied about Jesus 700 years before He arrived in a manger. 1 Peter 2:24 ESVīoth passages describe the physical punishment Christ took upon Himself for the sake of humanity-of those who chose to believe in Him.

And when he had said these things, all his adversaries were ashamed: and all the people rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by him.The voices of those around me lifted higher as the main chorus approached in By His Wounds. And the ruler of the synagogue answered with indignation, because that Jesus had healed on the sabbath day, and said unto the people, There are six days in which men ought to work: in them therefore come and be healed, and not on the sabbath day. And he laid his hands on her: and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God. And when Jesus saw her, he called her to him, and said unto her, Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity. And, behold, there was a woman which had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bowed together, and could in no wise lift up herself.
