He was despised

Who has believed what he has heard from us? And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed? For he grew up before him like a young plant, and like a root out of dry ground; he had no form or majesty that we should look at him, and no beauty that we should desire him. He was despised and rejected by men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief; and as one from whom men hide their faces he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Isaiah 53:1-3 (KJV)

I gave my back to the smiters, and my cheeks to them that plucked off the hair: I hid not my face from shame and spitting. Isaiah 50:6 (KJV)

  1. Thanks for posting the Isaiah verses. My wife and I teach 6th grade boys and girls s.s., and we have been talking about love. What does the world say love is and what does GOD say love is. Palm Sunday we looked at 3 main verses about love
    John 3:16 GOD so loved"; John 15:13 "no greater love"; and 1 john4:10 " GOD sent HIS SON as an atoning sacrifice". then we looked at the Isaiah verses that described what JESUS went through, and in Isaiah 50:6 we told them HIS beard was ripped out. Our lesson then went on to say when you are tempted take a strand of hair between your fingers and pull hard. Hurts doesn't it? so think about what you are doing and what it caused JESUS to go through to keep you from sinning. My wife then said pull out a nose hair to feel more discomfort. We then finished up with 1Corinthians 13
    I enjoy and am blessed by your blog
