“Animals go as uncomprehending to slaughter as to shearing, but the Servant who knew all things beforehand went to His death with a calm silence that reflected not an uncomprehending but a submitted mind and tongue… Ultimately, only a Person can substitute for people. This is the importance of the stress in verse 7 on the Servant’s voluntariness expressed in the acceptance of humiliation and the deliberately maintained silence.”

For discussion this week:
-- As you reflect on Christmas, do you keep Jesus in the manger, or do you connect the baby in the cradle with the man on the cross?
-- Why was it necessary for Jesus to suffer and die for us?
-- Spend time in worship this week as you look toward the celebration of the birth of the Messiah, giving thought to and sharing your gratitude for what Christ has done for you.
