Transcription: As this chapter foretells, Jesus did not open his mouth to answer his accusers at his trial. He left no descendants. He was cut off in the prime of life and, thanks to a gracious friend, was buried in a rich man's tomb. But that was not the end. After three days he saw the light of life. According to Isaiah, the servant died for a very specific purpose. He was pierced for our transgressions. He took on pain for the sake of others, for our sakes. His wounds and apparent defeat made possible a great victory. His death sealed a future triumph when all that is wrong on earth will be set right.
