Isaiah 53:5

Context

53:5 He was wounded because of 1  our rebellious deeds,

crushed because of our sins;

he endured punishment that made us well; 2 

because of his wounds we have been healed. 3 

1 tn The preposition מִן (min) has a causal sense (translated “because of”) here and in the following clause.

2 tn Heb “the punishment of our peace [was] on him.” שָׁלוֹם (shalom, “peace”) is here a genitive of result, i.e., “punishment that resulted in our peace.”

3 sn Continuing to utilize the imagery of physical illness, the group acknowledges that the servant’s willingness to carry their illnesses (v. 4) resulted in their being healed. Healing is a metaphor for forgiveness here.
