Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Isaiah 53:11

_ _ Jehovah is still speaking.

_ _ see of the travail — He shall see such blessed fruits resulting from His sufferings as amply to repay Him for them (Isaiah 49:4, Isaiah 49:5; Isaiah 50:5, Isaiah 50:9). The “satisfaction,” in seeing the full fruit of His travail of soul in the conversion of Israel and the world, is to be realized in the last days (Isaiah 2:2-4).

_ _ his knowledge — rather, the knowledge (experimentally) of Him (John 17:3; Philippians 3:10).

_ _ my ... servant — Messiah (Isaiah 42:1; Isaiah 52:13).

_ _ righteous — the ground on which He justifies others, His own righteousness (1 John 2:1).

_ _ justify — treat as if righteous; forensically; on the ground of His meritorious suffering, not their righteousness.

_ _ bear ... iniquities — (Isaiah 53:4, Isaiah 53:5), as the sinner’s substitute.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Isaiah 53:10-12.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Isaiah 53:11

Shall see — He shall enjoy. The travel — The blessed fruit of all his labours, and sufferings. Satisfied — He shall esteem his own and his father's glory, and the salvation of his people, an abundant recompence. By his knowledge — By the knowledge of him. Justify — Acquit them from the guilt of their sins, and all the dreadful consequences thereof. And Christ is said to justify sinners meritoriously, because he purchases and procures it for us. Many — An innumerable company of all nations. For — For he shall satisfy the justice of God, by bearing the punishment due to their sins.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

(p) That is, the fruit and effect of his labour, which is the salvation of his Church.

(q) Christ will justify by faith through his word, while Moses could not justify by the law.
