Isaiah - The Servant of Yahweh
IsaiahSteve Gregg
Isaiah, one of the most discussed books in the Old Testament, contains four passages commonly referred to as the "servant songs." These songs, including the well-known Isaiah 53, refer to the servant of Yahweh, a figure scholars have not come to a complete agreement on. While the passages seem to be referencing the exiles returning from Babylon to Judah, they are also seen as referencing the sufferings of the Messiah and the redemption of Israel, both spiritually and physically. The speaker suggests that the servant is not Israel but rather a person who serves to liberate Israel and bring light to the Gentiles.
