What You’ll Learn:
Christians claim Isaiah 53 offers predicts that the coming Messiah is Jesus. Is this true? Did Jesus claim to be God? In my interview with Hebrew scholar Dr. Walter Kaiser, he shared: “Any time you have a son that’s called Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace, Wonderful Counselor, this is no ordinary boy. This is no mortal such as we know on planet earth. This has to be someone from heaven and this increases… the fact that this is none other than the Messiah, the Son of God.” Isaiah 53 is clear that the Messiah would be both human and divine. Only Jesus fulfills the requirements of the perfect Son of God.
