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 Wounded for our transgressions as we pick up in Isaiah chapter 53 verse three and now with

today's message here's pastor Chuck. Have you ever looked at something that was so shocking

you couldn't look, you turned your face,

you couldn't stand to look at it, it was so horrible?

It may be that that will be your first response.

When you see the marks of the suffering that he bore for you, you look and you can't even,

he doesn't even look like a human being.

Ooh, you know, you just sort of cringe at it.

He is despised, he's rejected.

And we didn't esteem him. But surely, in that suffering, in that death, he bore our griefs and he carried our sorrows.

Yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions. Now this is why it is so ridiculous to try to hold the Jews responsible for the death of Jesus
