Prophecies Concerning the Death of Christ.
                          Isaiah 53 describes the death of Jesus Christ. The Messiah was going to be despised and
                          rejected by mankind (v3). He was going to take our pain and bear our suffering (v4). He was
                          going to be crushed for our iniquities, and the punishment that was going to bring us peace
                          was on Him and by His wounds we are healed (v5). He was going to be oppressed and
                          afflicted, yet He was not going to open His mouth (v7). It was going to be the LORD’s will to
               crush Him and cause Him to suffer (v10). No bones of Him were going to be broken (Ps 34:20). He was
               going to be forsaken (Ps 22:1), He was going to be mocked and taunted (Ps 22:6-8), His garments were
               going to be divided by the casting of lots (Ps 22:18), He was going to be spat on (Isa 50:6), and was going
               to be accused falsely (Ps 35:11).

               Prophecies Concerning His Glory
               In Isaiah 4:2, the mentioning of the branch of the Lord most likely refers to the glorification of Jesus
               Christ. In the same prophetic book, in chapter 63:1, the context of the passage appears to suggest the
               Messianic glorification. In reference to the Son of Man, Daniel notes that “And to Him was given
               dominion and glory and a kingdom, that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve him, his
               dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom one that shall not be
               destroyed” (Dan 7:14 [ESV]). Other NT passages that extensively discuss the glorification of Jesus Christ
               include among others, Mark 16:19; Luke 24:51; Heb. 4:14; 9:24; 1 Peter 3:22.
