Advent Series Part 1 of 5, The Suffering Servant: Wretched Humiliation and Glorious Exultation
This 5-part series is an examination of the final Song of the Suffering Servant in the Book of Isaiah. Each week includes a detailed look at one of the stanzas from this prophetic song. Biblical scholars searched the scriptures to discover who Isaiah was describing, but it wasn't until Jesus came that a definitive answer was given.
In Stanza 1, the striking comparison between the exalted servant and the humiliated servant is introduced: He will be lifted high and yet be so disfigured that He won't be recognized. His life and ministry will cause Kings to be speechless.
