Chapter 52 – FAMILIA MUNDIAL
1 [7-10] God leads his people back from Babylon to Zion, from whose ruined walls watchmen . . . shout for joy; cf ⇒ Romans 10:15.
2 [11] From there: from Babylon. Vessels of the LORD: taken to Babylon by Nebuchadnezzar, now carried back by the exiled priests returning in procession to Zion; cf ⇒ Ezra 1:7.
3 [⇒ 52:13-⇒ 53:12] The last of the four «Servant-of-the-Lord» oracles. An extraordinary description of the sinless Servant, who by his voluntary suffering atones for the sins of his people, and saves them from just punishment at the hands of God. Only in Jesus Christ is the prophecy perfectly fulfilled.
