Isaiah 53 Has Words That Seem To Be Saying The Man Is Being Punished For The Sins Of Ohers. Not So.

Isaiah 53 describes the man who will be God’s representation, His prophet like Moses speaking and writing His words to the Jewish people, just as He did with Moses and the Israelites, in this day of the Lord. The day described in Malachi 3 where He says He is returning with His messenger and the Angel of His presence the Holy Spirit. He is Moshiach of Isaiah 11 known as the leper scholar in the Talmud for he is familiar with disease and makes the many righteous with his knowledge.

Sages, Rabbis & Christians have never figured Isaiah 53 out. Only God’s righteous servant can interpret it properly. God had it written that way. He leaves something out that can be seen in Ezekiel (the key to 53) to make his forehead like adament, flint, and to not be dismayed by his people. He went through God’s fire of refinement pinned to the ground and taken from the land of the living (society) after God's Spirit entered him, and God is in His Spirit.

God’s fire of refinement for prophets of wounding, punishment, chastisement, maltreatment, crushing and bruising to break the will of a man, tempering his emotions and removing a furious spirit while teaching him the scripture.

In my case to become His righteous servant and make the witnesses of the combined first six verses by quotation righteous. They are sick with guilt from sinning. I offered myself for guilt agreeing to the fire of refinement. So, when the witnesses say "he was wounded for our sins" I was. Not as a vicarious taking of their sins but to endure the fire of refinement and become the righteous servant who makes the many righteous by his knowledge and removes their guilt.


Isaiah 53 has many words that seem to be saying the man described is being punished for the sins of others:

In Isaiah 53/4 the words "our sickness that he was bearing, Our suffering that he endured"; 53/5 "he was wounded because of our sins, Crushed because of our iniquities. He bore the chastisement that made us whole, And by his bruises we were healed"; 53/7 "He was maltreated"; 53/6 "And the Lord visited upon him the guilt of all of us"; 52/11 "It is their punishment that he bears"; and in 53/10 “But the Lord chose to crush him by disease, That, if he made himself an offering for guilt,”

All of this has to do with setting up, among many things, a test of devotion for a gentile who becomes God's righteous servant, the anointed one God calls My servant David, Elijah the messenger, and the prophet like Moses if he passes the test. Very ominous words for a man to consider when he offers himself for guilt in a covenant with God to possibly receive long life.

God said to Ezekiel: “But the House of Israel will refuse to listen to you, for they refuse to listen to Me; for the whole House of Israel are brazen of forehead and stubborn of heart. But I will make your face as hard as theirs, and your forehead as brazen as theirs. I will make your forehead like adamant (shamir), harder than flint. Do not fear them, and do not be dismayed by them, though they are a rebellious breed.” Ezekiel 3/7-9

How will God make Ezekiel suitable for His purpose, making him as hard and brazen as the Houses of Israel and Judah, remove his fear of them and his dismay when they do not listen to him? Just as with the verses of Isaiah 53/3 Ezekiel was despised, shunned, and held of no account.

By pain and suffering with maltreatment, crushing, bruising, chastisement and punishment to remove his self- will and refine his soul and remove the fury of his spirit while the hand of the Lord was upon him. The same words used in Isaiah 53. God does not crush Ezekiel with disease so that he would offer himself for guilt to God and agree to bear an oppressive judgment. God seizes him. God does not have to ask you to do anything. You do not say no to God. He is God.

“A spirit seized me and carried me away. I went in bitterness, in the fury of my spirit, while the- hand of the Lord was strong upon me.” Ezekiel 3/14

“And a spirit entered into me and set me upon my feet. And He spoke to me and said to me: "Go, shut yourself up in your house. As for you, O mortal, cords have been placed upon you, and you have been bound with them, and you shall not go out among them." Ezekiel 3/24-25

“Then lie on your left side, and let it bear the punishment of the House of Israel [for sin]; for as many days as you lie on it you shall bear their punishment. Ezekiel is being constrained by the power of God that envelops him and prevents him from leaving his house. Just like the man described in Isaiah 53/8 Ezekiel is cut off from the land of the living (not removed).

And then he is enduring punishment corresponding to the number of the years of the punishment for the guilt and sins of the Houses of Israel and Judah by having these cords of God's power prevent him from turning side to side which would have also pinned him to the ground (crushing and bruising).

God treating you as you could never imagine is very humbling.
