Isaiah
Chapter
42
1~~
Behold my servant {Jesus Christ}, I have put My spirit upon Him. He shall bring forth judgment to the Gentiles. {Note: Jesus (in his humanity) - became a servant in order to die for all humans -- serving them by dying for us. And, God the Father sent the Holy Spirit to look after Jesus in the hypostatic union.}
2
He shall not cry, nor lift up, {Note: This describes when Jesus went to the cross, He did not cry out until the sins of the world were imputed to Him and judged. Until that time, He did not cry out.}
3
A bruised reed shall he not break, He shall bring forth judgment unto truth.
4
He shall not fail nor be discouraged, And the isles shall wait for His law.
5~~Thus
said God/'El . . . Jehovah/God . . . He spread out the earth and its vegetation.
Who
gives the 'spark of life'/'breathe of life' {n@shamah}
6``
I Jehovah/God have called you in righteousness, {Note: This verse describes the purpose of Israel. They were a new race created by God to 'bring the Light of the Word'/God to the Gentiles. Whenever they went out under the 5th cycle of discipline, it was always related to their going away from God and His Word. Then God would raise up a Gentile nation as His client nation to carry the Light to the Gentiles in their place. This will continue now until the 2nd Advent of Christ when Israel will be restored.}
7
To open the blind eyes, 8`` I am Jehovah/God. That is My name.
And
My glory I will not give to another,
9
Behold, the former things are come to pass,
10
Sing unto Jehovah/God a new song,
11
Let the wilderness and the cities
Let
the inhabitants of the rock sing,
12
Let them give glory unto Jehovah/God, 13~~ Jehovah/God shall go like a warrior. He shall arouse motivation like a man of war. He will run like a man. He shall ask you to lift up a war cry. He shall prevail against His enemies. 14 I have long time held My peace. I have been still, and refrained Myself.
Now
I will cry I will destroy and devour at once.
15~~I
{God} will lay waste
16
And I will bring the blind
I
will make darkness light before them,
These
things will I do unto them,
17
They shall be turned back,
18
Hear . . . you deaf;
19
Who is blind,
Or
deaf,
Who
is blind as he who is perfect,
20
Seeing many things,
21
Jehovah/God is well pleased
He
will magnify the law, 22 But this is a people robbed and spoiled.
They
are all of them snared in holes,
They
are for a prey, and none delivers . . . 23 Who among you will give ear to this?
Who
will 'hear, listen and obey' {shama`}
24
Who gave Jacob for a spoil,
Did
not Jehovah/God,
For
they would not Walk in His Ways,
25
Therefore He has poured upon him
