Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Isaiah 52:14-15

_ _ Summary of Messiah’s history, which is set forth more in detail in the fifty-third chapter. “Just as many were astonished (accompanied with aversion, Jeremiah 18:16; Jeremiah 19:8), etc.; his visage, etc.; so shall He sprinkle,” etc.; Israel in this answers to its antitype Messiah, now “an astonishment and byword” (Deuteronomy 28:37), hereafter about to be a blessing and means of salvation to many nations (Isaiah 2:2, Isaiah 2:3; Micah 5:7).

_ _ thee; his — Such changes of persons are common in Hebrew poetry.

_ _ marredHebrew, “disfigurement”; abstract for concrete; not only disfigured, but disfigurement itself.

_ _ more than man — Castalio translates, “so that it was no longer that of a man” (compare Psalms 22:6). The more perfect we may suppose the “body prepared” (Hebrews 10:5) for Him by God, the sadder by contrast was the “marring” of His visage and form.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Isaiah 52:13-15.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Isaiah 52:14

Astonished — At his humiliation. Thee — At thee, O my servant. His form — Christ, in respect of his birth, breeding, and manner of life, was most obscure and contemptible. His countenance also was so marred with frequent watchings, and fastings, and troubles, that he was thought to be near fifty years old when he was but about thirty, John 8:57, and was farther spoiled with buffetings, and crowning with thorns, and other cruel and despiteful usages.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Isaiah 52:14

As many were astonished at thee; his visage was so (o) marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men:

(o) In the corrupt judgment of man, Christ in his person was not valued.
