Welcome to the Daily Blade. The Word of God is described as the sword of the spirit, the primary

spiritual weapon in the Christian's armor against the forces of evil. Your hosts are Joby Martin

and Kyle Thompson, and they stand ready to equip men for the fight. Let's sharpen up.

All right, guys, it has been a pleasure to be with you this week, but let's go ahead and close it out.

So all week we've been looking at Isaiah 53, and so it's just an incredible prophecy that described

what would happen to Jesus of Nazareth 700 years before it actually happened.

And so far this week, we've looked at a summary of the first 52 chapters of Isaiah, and over the last few days, we've covered the first nine verses of Isaiah 53. And today we're

going to focus on the last three verses to close out the chapter. We're in start in verse 10.

he will be separated and cut off from the land of the living. When verse 15 or verse 10 comes in,

it says that he shall see his offspring and he shall prolong his days. And so it's like, well, wait a minute. We just had this guy dying in seven through nine, but now we have verse 10 and he's thriving. Like, what's that about? Again, we see that he's killed. He's killed among the wicked and he's assigned to a rich man's grave like what are he talking about so how could a dead

man see his offspring how could a dead man prolong his days how does a dead man watch god's plants prosper

in his hand exactly it's obviously an impossibility unless that person is brought back from the grave

you see these passages make no sense at all unless the
