A TEXT THAT MUST GRIP YOUR HEARTSERMON NUMBER 6 ON ISAIAH 5. Dr. R. L. Hymers, Jr. A sermon preached at the Baptist Tabernacle of Los Angeles. Lords Day Morning, July 1. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities the chastisement of our peace was upon him and with his stripes we are healed Isaiah 5. Two Greek words in Romans chapter one can be used to show the difference between knowing about something and having a full knowledge of it. We are told in Romans 1 2. God. The Greek word for knew is gnosis. It means that they knew about God. But Romans 1 2. 8 says that they did not acknowledge God, or retain God in their knowledge. The word for acknowledge here is epignosis. It denotes a strengthened form of gnosis knowing, expressing a full knowledge with a more powerful influence see W. E. Vine, An Expository Dictionary of New Testament Words, Revell, 1. II, p. 3. 01. Although the ancient peoples knew. God gnosis, they did not have personal knowledge of Him epignosis. They did not know God personally. When we observe the ordinance of the Lords Supper, I think those two Greek words in the first chapter of Romans describe some of you who watch us take the bread and the cup, but are not able to participate yourselves. You know outwardly and mentally what the Lords Supper means, but you do not know by experience the Christ that it portrays. You have a knowledge about it a gnosis about it, but you do not have a full knowledge epignosis of Christ. Watch Gettysburg Online Ibtimes. You dont know Jesus Christ Himself. And so it is with our text. You may know the outward form of the words and their meaning, but you have not grasped the inner meaning, the full understanding of it in a way that powerfully influences you ibid. Therefore, it is my purpose to draw your attention to the deeper meaning of the text, with the hope that your mental knowledge of these words will be deepened to. Jesus Christ. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities the chastisement of our peace was upon him and with his stripes we are healed Isaiah 5. This is a verse that must grip your heart if you hope to be converted. I pray that it will move you from head knowledge to a. Jesus Christ who died on the Cross to pay the penalty for your sin. There are three main points in the text. I. First, Christ was wounded for our transgressions, bruised for our iniquities. Let us stand and read aloud the first part of our text. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities Isaiah 5. You may be seated. The first word but shows the contrast between the false idea described at the end of verse four, that Christ died as a result of His own sins and follies, and the true fact that He died to pay for our sins. Dr. Edward J. Young was an Old Testament scholar. He was a close personal. Chinese pastor, Dr. Timothy Lin, who was also a great Old Testament. Dr. Young said, Another emphasis is found in that the pronoun he is placed first, thus to show that, in contrast to those who really had deserved the punishment, he bore the sins of the guilty Edward J. Young, Ph. D., The Book of Isaiah, William B. Eerdmans Publishing Company, 1. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities Isaiah 5. The word wounded is very interesting and important. Dr. Young said that the Hebrew word means pierced through, and there accompanies this thought usually that of a piercing through unto death Young, ibid. The Hebrew word means pierced through, perforated ibid. That word also appears in Zechariah 1. They shall look upon me whom they have piercedZechariah 1. This is an obvious prophecy of Christ, whose scalp was pierced by a crown of thorns, whose hands and feet were pierced with nails on the Cross, whose side was pierced with a Roman spear. As the Apostle John tells us, One of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and waterthat the scripture should be fulfilledwhich saith, They shall look on him whom they pierced John 1. And, then, the text says, he was bruised for our iniquities Isaiah 5. The Hebrew word for bruised means crushed Young, ibid. The crushing and bruising of Christ began in the Garden of Gethsemane, the night before He was. Jesus was in an agonyand his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground Luke 2. In the Garden of Gethsemane, Christ was crushed under the weight of our sin, which was placed on Him there. A few hours later, Christ was bruised and crushed by the beatings and scourgings He received directly before He was nailed to the Cross, and then pierced with a spear. But the deeper meaning of the crushing is that it speaks of the load of our sins placed on Him, as the Apostle Peter said, Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree I Peter 2 2. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities Isaiah 5. Dr. Isaac Watts made that clear in his famous hymn, Was it for crimes that I had done He groaned upon the tree Amazing pity grace unknown And love beyond degree Well might the sun in darkness hide, And shut his glories in, When Christ, the mighty Maker, died. For man the creatures sin. Alas And Did My Saviour Bleed by Isaac Watts, D. D., 1. 67. 4 1. 74. II. Second, Christ was chastised in our place. Notice the third clause in our text, But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities the chastisement of our peace was upon him Isaiah 5. I read that verse for many years without knowing what it meant. Dr. Delitzsch translates it, the chastisement which leads to our peace C. F. Keil and F. Delitzsch, Commentary on the Old Testament, Eerdmans Publishing Company, 1. VII, p. 3. 19. It was our peaceour general well being, our blessedness, which these sufferingssecured ibid. The word chastisement means punishment. Dr. Young said, One is not reading into the text if he asserts that the chastisement punishment that fell upon Christ was for the purpose of propitiation Young, ibid., p. The justice of God fell on Christ propitiating and appeasing Gods wrath against sin. Dr. John Gill went where many modern commentators fear to go, and was right to do so, when he said, The chastisement of our peace was upon him that is, the punishment of our sins was inflicted on him, whereby our peace and reconciliation with God was made by him whereby divine wrath is appeased, justice is satisfied, and peace is made John Gill, D. D., An Exposition of the Old Testament, The Baptist Standard Bearer, 1. I, p. 3. 12. The Apostle Paul spoke of Christ propitiating the wrath of God when he wrote, Christ Jesus Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood Romans 3 2. Albert Midlane explained what the Apostle meant by propitiation in the hymn Mr. Griffith sang before this sermon, No tongue can tell the wrath He bore, The wrath so due to me Sins just desert He bore it all, To set the sinner free. Now not a single drop remains Tis finished, was His cry By one effectual draught, He drank The cup of wrath quite dry. The Cup of Wrath by Albert Midlane, 1.
