引言：

耶稣基督用以赛亚书53章来说明祂自己，四卷福音书的作者也都把我们的目光引向以赛亚书53章，甚至使徒们也大量地引用以赛亚书53章带出耶稣就是弥赛亚的事实。

一、祂被人藐视厌弃(V1-3）

耶稣像普通人一样成长，而且出身贫寒。祂的相貌也不出众，外表、风度都没有特别吸引人的地方，完全不符合人所期待的君王形象。祂因刻意降卑自己，以致不起眼，所以被藐视，被人厌弃，而且多受痛苦，常经忧患。在世人的眼里，他们只看见一个普通的人、不幸的人。因此，他们看不出耶稣基督就是上帝的膀臂和人类的救赎主。

二、祂代人受神刑罚(V4-6）

当我们凭己意行，我们就造出了一个不断地冲突、斗争的族群 ，无法解决问题，因为我们都坚持要照自己的意思行。因此，我们要得到耶稣的救赎，我们就得承认‘我们都如羊走迷，各人偏行己路。’然后相信下一句，‘耶和华使我们众人的罪孽都归在他身上。’祂承担了我们该受的责罚，使我们脱离一切罪的捆绑，使我们得着真正的自由。

三、祂甘愿做赎罪祭(V7-10a）

在旧约时代，罪人以无罪羔羊的血，作为罪的工价代替本该死的生命。然而，耶稣甘愿从受尊崇的地位，降卑成为一只被宰杀的无罪羔羊。而且，代替众人赎罪，叫世人罪得赦免并与神和好。

四、祂作神国度君王(V10b-12）

耶稣在世的时候，说话行事不是照自己的意思，而是遵行父神的旨意。祂虚己并倒空自己，为要行父神喜悦的事，为世人成就救恩。我们看到了耶稣祂经历了十字架的苦难，最后被神高举，上帝要带祂进入到远超我们想象的极美无比的荣耀。耶稣基督作了神国度的君王。

总结：

今天，我们若相信并承认耶稣基督是我们的救主，那意味着我们要跟随耶稣基督，我们要走的就是耶稣基督走过的道路。虽可能会面对挑战和痛苦，但上帝要透过我们在苦难中的顺服把我们升到至高处，使我们与基督同掌王权。

Isaiah 53: All point to Jesus

Introduction:

Jesus Christ explained Himself in Isaiah 53, the authors of all four Gospels have directed our attention to Isaiah 53, and even the apostles have quoted Isaiah 53 extensively to bring out the fact that Jesus is the Messiah.

I. He was despised and rejected (V1-3)

Jesus grew up like a common man and was born into poverty. His look is also not outstanding, and his appearance and demeanour are not particularly attractive, and it does not meet the image of a king that people expect. Because He deliberately humbled Himself so that He was inconspicuous, He was despised and rejected by others and suffered much pain and grief. In the eyes of the world, they only see an ordinary, unfortunate person. Therefore, they do not see that Jesus Christ is the arm of God and the Redeemer of mankind.

II. He was punished by God on behalf of man (V4-6)

When we act on our own terms, we create a society of constant conflict, struggle, and inability to solve problems because we all insist on doing our own way. Therefore, in order for us to be redeemed by Jesus, we have to admit that “All we like sheep have gone astray; We have turned, every one, to his own way;”. Then believe the next sentence,“the LORD has laid on Him the iniquity of us all”. He took the punishment we deserved, freed us from all bondage to sin, so that we may be truly free.

III. He was willing to be a sin offering (V7-10a)

In Old Testament times, sinners used the blood of the sinless lamb as the wages of sin in replace of life that should have died. However, Jesus willingly descended from exalted position to a sinless lamb to be slaughtered. Furthermore, atonement for the sins of all men, so that the sins of the world may be forgiven and reconciled with God.

IV. He is the King of the Kingdom of God (V10b-12)

When Jesus was on earth, he did not speak and act according to His own will, but according to the will of God, the Father. He humbled Himself and emptied Himself in order to do what was pleasing to God, the Father and to accomplish salvation for the world. We have seen Jesus who experienced the suffering of the cross and was finally exalted by God, and God brought Him into a glorious and incomparable glory far beyond our imagination. Jesus Christ is the King of the Kingdom of God.

Conclusion：

Today, if we believe and confess that Jesus Christ is our Saviour, that means we are to follow Jesus Christ, and we are going to walk in the same way that Jesus Christ walked. Although we may face challenges and pain, but through our obedience in the midst of suffering, God will elevate us to the highest spot, so we may reign with Christ.
