This is my servant

Behold my servant, whom I have chosen; my beloved, in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my spirit on him, and he shall show judgment to the Gentiles.Behold. This prophecy is expressly referred to the Messiah by the Targumist,

who renders, ‘Behold my servant the Messiah,’ etc. ha avdi mesheecha; and it was amply fulfilled in the gentle, lowly, condescending and beneficent nature of Christ’s miracles and personal ministry, his perseverance in the midst of opposition,

without engaging in contentious disputation, and his kind and tender dealing with weak and tempted believers.
