Isa 53:11
11He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.
Jesus Himself states that His death shall bear fruit !
John 12:32-33
32And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.
33This he said, signifying what death he should die.
Jesus here is saying that His death would effect or produce results, that by it, all men will be drawn to Him, meaning shall believe in Him for Salvation.
The all men here does not mean all without exception, but all without distinction, both jews and gentiles alike see vs 20
In the original the word men does not appear, so it reads, will draw all[pas] unto me.
The All, is all types of races of men, and I believe its the all that the Father gave Him as Per Jn 6:37
37 All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.
Jn 17:2
2As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him.
The reason why He is speaking about all types or races of men is because, as the Seed of Abraham [ Gal 3:16] He will draw, convert all of Abraham's promised Children to Him. Remember when God told Abraham, that A Father of Many Nations He had made him in Gen 17:5
5Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made thee.
Well Jesus death as the seed of Abraham would accomplish the gathering in of Abraham's seed from all Nations.
That word in Gen 17:5 for nations is the hebrew word gowy :
nation, people
a) nation, people
1) usually of non-Hebrew people
2) of descendants of Abraham
3) of Israel
And the word is also translated gentiles as here:
Isa 11:10
10And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be glorious.
Isa 42:1,6
1Behold my servant, whom I uphold; mine elect, in whom my soul delighteth; I have put my spirit upon him: he shall bring forth judgment to the Gentiles.
6I the LORD have called thee in righteousness, and will hold thine hand, and will keep thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles;[Thats because the Gentiles were included in the Abrahamic Covenant in Gen 17:5]
Isa 49:6
6And he said, It is a light thing that thou shouldest be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel: I will also give thee for a light to the Gentiles, that thou mayest be my salvation unto the end of the earth.
All this was in regards to God's Covenant with Abraham, that He was made a Father of Many Nations, and in doing so, He would multiply his seed. Gen 17:2,7
2And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly.
7And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee.
This establishes the fact, that what God said to Abraham in vs 5, had to do with His Covenantal Promises to Him.
That this matter related to Justification is clearly brought to the forefront by Paul here Gal 3:8
8And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed.
Also, the word for nations in Gen 17:5, also is translated heathen as here Ps 102:15
15So the heathen shall fear the name of the LORD, and all the kings of the earth thy glory.
These heathen would be Abraham's seed among the Nations or the Gentiles that were part of the Covenant to Abraham.
Now, I am presenting this, so we can understand why Jesus spake of His death as the means by which He would draw all unto Him. Not all as in all men without exception, but all without distinction, of the seed of Abraham from among the Gentile Nations.
11He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.
