Isaiah 53

(I started at 52:13) What a terrible description of man's inhumanity towards another man. It's not clear whether Isaiah lived out this passage, but we know it described Jesus' passion. The second question in 53:1 speaks volumes; "Who could have seen the LORD's hand in this?" That is the same question we ask about suffering in our lives. "How is God in this?" When we look past the suffering and see the end of God's work we are more inclined to give him glory than to speak our grief.
