And the red sea scrolls of isaiah 53 The DSS text (Great Isaiah Scroll) is slightly different than the Masoretic Text, and only allows for "his tomb" (rather than grave) and the plural is not possible.Anyway,what is written in isaiah 53 and what was done by jesus is not so much coincidence?
Verse 10 mentions the Hebrew word asham which means to admit guilt. So whoever the servant is, they are admitting guilt.
Not sure what you mean about the word deaths. The Hebrew word used, b'motav, clearly means deaths in the plural. Look it up.
If you want to call it a coincidence, then go right ahead.
There are many other things in Isaiah 53 I haven't even touched on.
Not to mention the Isaiah scroll never had chapter breaks, so it is a complete story, not just one chapter as I mentioned previously. Read Chapters 52 and 54, they all fit together.
Plus you don't understand the poetic language of the Hebrew bible.
Read the attached paper I put together many years ago that shows how the words written in Isaiah 53 are the same ones used in other places in the Hebrew bible to refer to Israel.
Did you know that Israel was despised, oppressed and afflicted?
Did you know that Israel is referred to as "him"?
Did you know Israel is referred to as forsaken, sick, wounded and bruised?
Did you know that Israel is referred to as a lamb that is lead to the slaughter?
Now I'll ask you the same question from my perspective -
Is what is written in Isaiah 53 and what is written similarly about Israel throughout the Hebrew bible a coincidence?
