The “Suffering Messiah” (Part 2) – News from Jerusalem


Isaiah 52 and 53 describe a “suffering Messiah” who is beaten and disfigured. This is recorded in Mark 15:15-19—“Wishing to satisfy the crowd, Pilate released Barabbas for them, and after having Jesus scourged, he handed Him over to be crucified.” These verses that are so descriptive of what we read in the New Testament about what Yeshua suffered are explained by the rabbis as pertaining to Israel as opposed to the person of the Messiah.
