Question

Read Isaiah 53:11. Select the best description.

Answer 1

The answer is C

The whole verse looks like this:

(Isaiah 53:11 According to New International Version (NIV))

11 After he has suffered,

he will see the light of life[a] and be satisfied[b];

by his knowledge[c] my righteous servant will justify many,

and he will bear their iniquities.

For the first line: This phrase describes all his pain and sufferings he has experienced during his passion on the cross. Christ has died for us. Even he is the Son of God, he did not escaped death, which will also happen to all of us. Death is a punishment for us because we sinned as a person. Christ has become a person that's why he also experienced it. In spite of death and all his wounds and pain he has experienced, he realized the positivities from all of those.  

For the second line: Meaning he will see the good side of those sufferings. It means, after death, we will live again but this time, our spirits will have everlasting life, no more sufferings, no more deaths, no more sickness which can provide every body spiritual satisfaction.  Christ has lived on the 3rd day of his death.

For the third line: Christ is often recognized as the Son of God, therefore, he is always the righteous one. He is holy and almost equal as God the Father. Because the Father has sent him to us, to become an example and to inspire us to follow his commandments and live to his words and teachings, if we accept these all, then we are justified and saved.  We will never get lost.

As for the last line: Since Jesus justified and corrected us by bearing our sins and dying for us, if we are willing to accept the same outlook, commandments and beliefs like him, then he will happily bear and carry all our misdeeds. But that doesn't mean that we will not die later on. We will still experience death, but this time, we will be saved.
