232 How Are the Christian <strong>Scriptures</strong> Confirmed by the Peculiar Glory of God?<br />
Isaiah 53:4<br />
Surely he has borne our griefs and<br />
carried our sorrows; yet we esteemed<br />
him stricken, smitten by God, and<br />
afflicted.<br />
Isaiah 53:4–5<br />
Surely he has borne our griefs and<br />
carried our sorrows; yet we esteemed<br />
him stricken, smitten by God, and<br />
afflicted. But he was pierced for our<br />
transgressions; he was crushed for<br />
our iniquities; upon him was the<br />
chastisement that brought us peace,<br />
and with his wounds we are healed.<br />
Isaiah 53:6<br />
All we like sheep have gone astray;<br />
we have turned—every one—to his<br />
own way; and the Lord has laid on<br />
him the iniquity of us all.<br />
Matthew 8:16–17<br />
That evening they brought to him<br />
many who were oppressed by<br />
demons, and he cast out the spirits<br />
with a word and healed all who<br />
were sick. This was to fulfill what<br />
was spoken by the prophet Isaiah:<br />
“He took our illnesses and bore our<br />
diseases.”<br />
1 Peter 2:24<br />
He himself bore our sins in his body<br />
on the tree, that we might die to<br />
sin and live to righteousness. By his<br />
wounds you have been healed.<br />
1 Peter 2:24–25<br />
He himself bore our sins in his body<br />
on the tree, that we might die to<br />
sin and live to righteousness. By his<br />
wounds you have been healed. For<br />
you were straying like sheep, but<br />
have now returned to the Shepherd<br />
and Overseer of your souls.<br />
Isaiah 53:7–8<br />
He was oppressed, and he was afflicted,<br />
yet he opened not his mouth;<br />
like a lamb that is led to the slaughter,<br />
and like a sheep that before its<br />
shearers is silent, so he opened not<br />
his mouth.<br />
By oppression and judgment he was<br />
taken away; and as for his generation,<br />
who considered that he was<br />
cut off out of the land of the living,<br />
stricken for the transgression of my<br />
people?<br />
Isaiah 53:9<br />
And they made his grave with the<br />
wicked and with a rich man in his<br />
death, although he had done no<br />
violence, and there was no deceit in<br />
his mouth.<br />
Acts 8:32–33<br />
Now the passage of the Scripture<br />
that he was reading was this:<br />
“Like a sheep he was led to the<br />
slaughter<br />
and like a lamb before its shearer<br />
is silent,<br />
so he opens not his mouth.<br />
In his humiliation justice was denied<br />
him.<br />
Who can describe his generation?<br />
For his life is taken away from the<br />
earth.”<br />
1 Peter 2:21–22<br />
For to this you have been called,<br />
because Christ also suffered for you,<br />
leaving you an example, so that<br />
you might follow in his steps. He<br />
committed no sin, neither was deceit<br />
found in his mouth.
