Isaiah 53:10

King James Version (1769)

10 Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand.
Untruth

Common misinterpretations of Isaiah 53:10 include seeing the Suffering Servant as Israel collectively rather than the Messiah, suggesting national suffering atones for sins or predicts only temporal restoration without atonement's eternal scope; others deny substitutionary sacrifice by emphasizing suffering alone, ignoring the promised seed, prolonged days, and prosperity of God's pleasure, thus distorting the passage's prophetic gospel of redemption and triumph.

Truth

Isaiah 53:10 unveils God's sovereign plan in the Messiah's suffering, where it pleased the Lord to bruise Him and offer His soul as a sin atonement, resulting in resurrection, spiritual descendants through faith, prolonged eternal days, and the prosperous fulfillment of God's redemptive will through Him, highlighting divine purpose in substitutionary sacrifice leading to victory.
