names of God: Righteous Servant by ric gustafson
Isaiah 53:11- ' By his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many'
This term refers to God the Son. A righteous servant is a good and faithful servant and in this passage, Isaiah predicts the life, death and resurrection of Jesus. The word travail is used earlier in the passage and this word means torture or torment. Even thou he did not have to, Jesus came to us in human form. Because he was human, Jesus understood our weaknesses and can speak for us on Judgment Day. Jesus became our Righteous Servant and died on the cross for our salvation.
