The following commentary covers Chapters 61 and 62.
The
full grace of the Person of the Redeemer
As chapters 50-53
presented Christ in His sufferings, chapter 61 exhibits
Him in the full grace of His Person concerned in the
blessing of Israel. The three preceding chapters had
revealed the judgment and the intervention of Jehovah, at
the same time pointing out the Redeemer. We have seen the
same principle in the structure of the prophecy from
chapter 40 to the end of chapter 48, as in the last
series. Then in chapter 49 the Messiah is specially
introduced. So He is here from the beginning of chapter
61 to verse 6 of chapter 63. But there is a progress
necessarily accompanying the introduction, in the last
series of chapters, of the Person of Christ as the
principal subject of Jehovah's pleadings. We see that it
is Jehovah Himself who is Christ, and Christ who is
Jehovah. "Wherefore, when I came," is the
inquiry, "was there no man?" Hence also there
is the difference between the moral sins of Israel
against Jehovah, and the rejection of Himself in the
Person of the Messiah, which we have seen so clearly
pointed out in chapter 50. So also with respect to the
repentance of the Jews. In the former chapters the law is
written in their hearts; they turn away from iniquity,
they trust in Jehovah; they hearken to the Spirit of
prophecy, to the servant of Jehovah; they are delivered.
But when they shall see their Redeemer in glory, then it
is that the true repentance, the deep affliction, shall
take place at the sight of Him whom they have despised
and rejected, and who in His grace has borne their
iniquities.
Chapters 61, 62 appear to
me too plain to need much remark. The manner in which the
Lord stopped in the middle of verse 2 (chap. 61) Will be
observed, the time for the fulfilment of the last part of
the verse not being yet come. But He could set before
them that which applied to His own Person in grace.
