Welcome to the Word for today,

featuring the Bible Teaching of Pastor Chuck Smith,

founder of the Calvary Chapel Movement.

This radio program is a verse by verse study through the entire

Bible. And on today's edition of the word for today, Pastor Chuck continues with God's

servants as we pick up in Isaiah chapter 53 verse one and now with today's

message here's pastor chock

when men made chapter and verse divisions, they did make mistakes.

The word of God is divinely inspired. It's an errand. But men for the sake of helping us to find

scriptures and to memorize passages divided the Bible into chapter and verses and it's a very convenient

way to reference.

However, many times they made the divisions in the wrong place and in our reading we are prone

to read to an end of a chapter and then quit until the next reading.

And sometimes the thought carries right through so that in the dividing of the chapters they should

have ended chapter 52 with verse 12 and they should have started chapter 53 with verse 13 because the last three verses here definitely fit in with Isaiah 53.

And so that we might see the relationship with 53, we will begin our study of chapter 53 with

verse 13 of 52.
