The Servant Of The Lord

[Zaatar71]

The four Servant Songs in the Book of Isaiah are:
Isaiah 42:1-9: The Servant is called to bring justice to the nations and is described as gentle and humble.
Isaiah 49:1-6: The Servant is chosen from the womb and is a light to the Gentiles.
Isaiah 50:4-11: The Servant experiences deep suffering and is a model of atonement for sin.
Isaiah 52:13-53:12: The Servant is exalted and fulfilled the will of God, bearing the sins of the world.
These songs highlight the Servant's role as a divine messenger and the ultimate sacrifice for humanity's redemption.

The Elect Servant of the Lord Has been chosen to bring justice to the nations establishing His law throughout the earth.
The Elect Servant of The Lord gathers all the elect children of God who are scattered worldwide.
The Elect Servant Provides The Penal Substitutionary Atonement That is Perfect and Eternal on behalf of the Elect Sheep
The Elect Servant has Accomplished a full redemption For all the Elect Sheep given to Him by The Father,

All of the lost sheep will be saved, not one will be lost. They benefit and partake of the Propitiation and full atonement made for them.
Goats, having no Propitiation, High Priest, Mediator, or Surety, will perish justly for their sins and experience the full wrath Of God.

The Gospel of the Kingdom preached by the Power of The Spirit, draws them savingly in, and applies the vicarious suffering of Jesus wrath bearing as substitute on their behalf. The Perfect righteousness of Jesus is imputed to the Elect, so they can be declared righteous based on Jesus law keeping, suffering and death on their behalf. Gal.4:
4 But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,

5 To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.

These are the basic facts of the biblical Gospel of the Kingdom entered by new birth, by God's grace and mercy. Anything less is another gospel, which is not another.2Cor.11:
3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtlety, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.

4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.

Having worked in a Jewish hospital and been a congenial colleague with many Jews, those I've associated with generally interpret these passages as a metaphor for Israel itself, though a few might admit that the servant is messianic.

None of them ever took the jump to admitting that Jesus fulfilled the role perfectly.

Yes, in Ex.4:22 God referred to Israel as His Son...in other words, His Covenant Son.,

22 And thou shalt say unto Pharaoh, Thus saith the Lord, Israel is my son, even my firstborn:

23 And I say unto thee, Let my son go, that he may serve me: and if thou refuse to let him go, behold, I will slay thy son, even thy firstborn.

The nation failed, but the Servant of the Lord will never Fail, Isa 49:3-8/
in the nt we read this; Mt.2:
13 And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I bring thee word: for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him.

14 When he arose, he took the young child and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt:

15 And was there until the death of Herod: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Out of Egypt have I called my son.
