JESUS TOOK THE PUNISHMENT FOR OUR SINS ON THE CROSS
Isaiah 53:5,6
The repetition of the pronouns *He*, *Him* and *His* for *our* and *we* underscores the fact that the Servant suffered in our place.
*The chastisement*... *His stripes*: For a similar reference, see 1 Peter 2:24.
*Peace* sums up the Servant's ministry of reconciliation, justification, adoption and glorification (2 Corinthians 5:17-21).
By saying that they were *healed* (Isaiah 53:4), the remnant expressed its *faith* in what God had announced in Isaiah 52:13.
*All we like sheep have gone astray*: For a New Testament perspective, see 1 Peter 2:25.
